I have a soft spot in my heart for Rice U.  First college football game I attended as a 9 yo kid was at Rice Stadium.  
It was Jess Neely’s Rice Owls vs John Bridger’s Baylor Bears.  I can still smell the mixture of pipe & cigar smoke in that stadium.  That aroma was common in college football stadiums of that era.
••• Baylor QB Don Trull had a good game tossing the ball to All American Lawrence Elkins in that game.  I think my home county (Brazoria) hero QB King Hill of Brazosport HS had already graduated from Rice U. 
••• I’ll be 70 next week so I seem to be looking back moreso than forward.  Please forgive.😊

GMG!
