If SMU is worried about losing to NTSU then SMU is focusing on the wrong problem-they addressed the problem this year
"With a quarter of a tank of gas, we can get everything we need right here in DFW." -SMU Head Coach Chad Morris

When momentum starts rolling downhill in recruiting-WATCH OUT.

Not afraid of losing to them - I just don't find it any fun to play them. Everything about them is bush league, and I would rather see us use that valuable spot to play someone of interest.

I get they bring folks and there is regional interest. I just think we can do better with that spot.

I'm really bummed I'm gonna miss the game this year. I love local "bragging rights" games. And like it or not, this is the only one we can realistically expect to win until things get a lot better.

You have to give them props for their uniform reveal video:

That is a ton better than what we have done in recent years. Was it 2013 with that Three Amigos sewing video? Or that nonsense last year with multiple number fonts?

Along the uniform front I think we have not heard anything from Morris & Co because the staff is going to do it right for 2016.

so we are "big time" and should only play top tier P-5 schools?

Yeah how about SMU beat them first before making grandiose claims such as these.
