Ponies, Panthers...

Biggest game of the year in the ACC so far - and probably the biggest game SMU has played in 40 years. Winner has a good shot to make the CCG and play for the CFP but either team may still need tiebreaker help. Louisville could do everyone a favor and fuck up Clemson's season. 

SMU -7

Dammit, I should have gone. 

I’m glad I didn’t go.

I didn’t feel good about this game. Not all week. In our last two games the offense has not done its share. SMU is playing at a quicker pace right now and we are not adjusting, not one bit.

Daniels and Smith are a sick 1, 2...

They are just playing at a different speed than Pitt is tonight. We have guys tackling air out there. Like I said earlier, the offense for us has not been good the past two games. Last week the Pitt defense outscored Syracuse, AND it outscored the Pitt offense. They have to be a lot better, especially in a game against a really good SMU team.

I like you as a poster, but growing up in Dallas, SMU was my first favorite college team.

Had the SMU knit cap for the winter and my brother had the UT knit cap.

I was looking for anyone to go to the game, but friends were out of town, had charity events, had a wedding in Fort Worth, or at home due to illness/high school kids homecoming bullshit.

Cpt Obvious notes that Pitt's schedule is greatly back weighted to this part of the season.  No one coulda guessed that SMU would weigh into that. 

You obviously weren’t paying attention to NIL fund raising that was announced a week after SMU’s move to the ACC was announced.

Well, thanks. I have nothing against any SMU fans. It’s no skin off my back.

When we have sucked, I have admitted it. Tonight, we are playing horribly and SMU is the cause of that.

SMU is a damned good football team. And now that schools are basically allowed to pay money any school that chooses to, can play with the big boys. There is no reason to believe that SMU doesn’t have the money, or the “want to” to compete. They have in the past and can in the future.

It’s great to see how far SMU has come! I remember playing in a mostly empty Cotton Bowl through the first game in Ford Stadium against KU.

My Dad and I watched Texas play the Ponies in the Cotton Bowl stadium, maybe two years after they resurrected their program, post death penalty. Man were they overmatched, as it looked like their SMU roster was filled with “walk ons.”

Glad to see them back over the last couple of decades. Some bowl teams here and there over that span. The ACC move was a huge get/accomplishment for them and SMU is taking full advantage of it!

Hook’em!!!
