We've actually had more recent opening game success than that as back in the good ole Peyton days we won 5 straight openers from '99-'03 and 8 of 9 from '99-'07 (would have won in '04 too at the Cheats but Edge fumbled twice inside the 5 and Vaderjerk shanked a game tying FG). Overall, we were 9-4 in openers w/ Peyton starting.
