SMU-20 TCU-14 in 1935---Forget it!

TCU's victory over the University of Wisconsin has caused a lot of my friends to have unbeleeevable pleasant/satisfied feelings. Count me among them. The top issue for me, maybe, no maybe to it. It has already happened. I can now stop dwelling on SMU-20 TCU-14 in September 1935. The winner of that game between the nationally ranked Number 1 and Number 2 teams was guaranteed an invitation to the 1936 Rose Bowl. TCU's consolation prize was very good and should have gotten my mind off of SMU-20,TCU-14 but it didn't. The total consolation prize was an invitation to the Sugar Bowl which ended TCU-3, LSU-2. SMU was defeated by Stanford 7 to 0 and TCU was the consensus national champion. I got no satisfaction out of SMU being defeated. They had played the game of their lives and left everything they had on the field at Amon Carter Stadium a month earlier.

Being national champion in 1935 should have done it, but TCU-21, Wisconsin-19 in 2011 did.
