Thank you KansasCowboy.
INTERNET FRIENDS!!!!!
Let's hear it for the Sunshine Pumpers! Lord knows we don't need anymore Decrepit ol' fans who live in the past. Even when it was only "two magical" seasons 87-88. But I find it interesting that a nobody Houston team took it to us 45-10, And let's not forget Ok. St. 62-14 trumping. Geese! The similarities.
1987 team lost 43-28 to a 3-7-1 Washington State team....and barely beat a 1-11 CSU team by 5 and a 4-6 Houston team by 2, too.
The 87-88 teams were good man, really good. It was a short lived stint of success, however, and the magnitude of that success I think has been inflated like an old fishing story over the years. Those teams had some close games and even some losses to not so great teams. They were no where near a national power, just like we are no where near a national power today.
