Rice did not play SMU in 1916.
The very first Thresher (
Jan. 15, 1916) gave the 1916 schedule as:
March 21-22 — Texas at Austin.
March 31-April 1 — A. & M. at College Station.
April 3-4 — Howard Payne at Houston.
April 10-11 — Tulane at New Orleans.
April 12-13 — L. S. U. at Baton Rouge.
April 17-18 — L. S. U. at Houston.
April 26-27 — Baylor at Houston.
May 1-2 — Austin College at Houston.
May 10-11 — Southwestern at Houston.
May 19 -20 — A. & M. at Houston.
(Although the headline and article said the Owls would be playing 22 games, but they listed only 20.)
