Go ahead and call me an oddball but my first exposure to college football was as a kid living in Houston and the Cougars were the big thing because the Oilers stunk. My parents were season ticket holders for the Coogs and were at the game, 49 points in the fourth qtr which I believe is a modern one qtr record. 1971 we came home from Kentucky on xmas vacation, the Bluebonnet Bowl between UH and Colorado was sold out so my die hard dad drove us 70 miles to Beaumont ,checked into a hotel on new years eve,watched the game because it was blacked out in Houston and drove home as soon as it was over. College football is the best. UH gave us the veer and also perfected the run and shoot and also were the first to team to play regularly indoors,
