This is an old revision of the document!


1936 Season

The team featured halfback Ray Buivid, who finished third in the Heisman Trophy voting that season, and it mowed down its early competition. Marquette topped St. Mary's College of Moraga, Calif., 20-6 before 50,000 at Soldier Field on Oct. 30.

If not for a 13-0 loss at Duquesne, there was talk that the Golden Avalanche could have played in the Rose Bowl.

Instead, Marquette was invited to the first-ever Cotton Bowl in Dallas. Before a sell-out crowd, Marquette fell to “Sammy” Baugh and Texas Christian University 16-6.

They finished the season #20 in the final AP poll.
