Houston Marshals vs Miami Tropics


The Marshals were stocked heavily on former Texas A&M Aggies. Randy McCown, the oldest of three brothers who would also play professional football (younger brothers Josh and Luke would have significantly longer professional careers), was the team's quarterback.


The Marshals won both games on their schedule, defeating the Los Angeles Dragons and Miami Tropics, before the league abruptly ended its season and ceased operations. The Marshals and the San Antonio Matadors were named league co-champions.
