In olden times, was anything particular done on campus for Rice week?

I had heard that when A&M played SMU annually, the fish in the Corps wore their Fish Spurs for the week before the game (as an example).

When I was in school they still did this but i think before we played tech. Has this been changed now to an SEC opponent? Do they even bother doing it anymore?

Was there anything associated with Arkansas? Any effort to bring that back?

Does anyone care? Bueller?

This is correct.

Yep, did it every year. I think the spurs were done for LSU the last few years, but I'm not sure.

Nothing I ever heard of...
