Well, more specifically play Rice.

....IIRC, that year Rice tied Texas University 14-14, which wound up fracking their bid for the NCAA Championship more than losing to LSU in the Cotton Bowl. That tie occurred the weekend after the Cuban Missile Crisis was resolved. JFK's speech was given on September 12, 1962, and most who attended Rice during that season still claim that the tie was the result of Kennedy's speech inspiring the team to, if they could not win, at least break even with your opponent and make sure they pay for their victory as much as possible.
