====Houston====
On November 23, 1968, the [[Houston Cougars football|University of Houston]] defeated the [[Tulsa Golden Hurricane football|University of Tulsa]] 100–6. Though they had a 24–0 advantage at halftime, Houston scored 11 touchdowns in the second half – including 7 in the fourth quarter – for an astounding 94-point blowout. 

They came close again in [[1989 NCAA Division I-A football season|1989]], routing a [[1989 SMU Mustangs football team|Southern Methodist]] (SMU) team [[Southern Methodist University football scandal|fresh off]] the so-called [[Death penalty (NCAA)|death penalty]] in by a score of 95–21 in what could be termed as a "revenge game" after years of humiliation against its longtime [[Southwestern Conference]] [[Houston–SMU rivalry|rival]]; Houston itself was under a bowl and television ban that season because of its own past recruiting violations, meaning only those in attendance at the [[Astrodome]] witnessed the Cougars embarrass the Mustangs.

In 1990, Houston defeated Division I-AA opponent [[Eastern Washington Eagles football|Eastern Washington University]] 84–21 and kept QB [[David Klingler]] playing late in the game to allow him to set NCAA records for most TD passes in a single game and a single season. Klinger threw 11 TD passes in that game, with 5 in the second half – including 2 in the fourth quarter. His final touchdown pass gave Houston a 77–14 lead with their starting QB still in the game. The next year, 1991, they would blow out [[Louisiana Tech Bulldogs football|Louisiana Tech University]] 73–3 in the opening game of the season.
