It was difficult to include while cropping but the headline to this article was "Defence Carries Ravens to Victory in Panda Game".
The "related story" that is referred to at the end is not about the game but the events surrounding it. A railing on the north side of the stands gave way at half time causing a number of people to fall more than 12 feet onto the concrete below. Roughly 30 people were sent to the hospital and there was some thought that the Panda Game should be shelved.
Attendance dipped from 17,000 or so to 1,500 in 1988 for a game held on Thanks giving Monday. It would take a few years for the game to restore its place on the football landscape.
