Flashback to 98

Postby smusic 00 » Mon Mar 16, 2015 7:40 pm

At the time I thought it couldn't get any worse than blowing a 22 point lead to Ole Miss in 9 minutes. Lots of memories of this one. They show all the scores and then the last 9 minutes and OT.

that was the low point of my experience as an SMU fan. Worst thing ever.

Chad is going to drag that bad karma out of its hole, kick its [deleted] and then bury it again.

I didn't post for any other reason than I found it by chance and thought it would be good for posterity.

The thing I personally find ironic is that I remember exactly where I was when I listened to the melt down. Subsequently, a few years later I was in the exact same spot when the planes hit the twin towers in New York. I am certainly not comparing the 2 incidents but just pointing out that I recall exactly where I was at the time of both events. It was just coincidence that it was the same place.

Yep that was 1997. The bigger bed wetting that year was the loss to winless TCU. Admittedly, I know nothing about the 1998 season because I took a five year sabbatical from SMU athletics after the first game in 1998.
