Having 3 teams in top 25 is great for the conference...will benefit us greatly in the future in both rankings and recruiting. I don't begrudge them their success...want to exceed it.

Please let Notre Dame get caught looking ahead to the USC game and get beat by Navy.

Even with UH and Memphis having high powered offenses, Navy could be the worst game of the season, NCAA record setting bad with zero passes

Oh please.


You were coming onto our board telling us we're looking 'tasty' in the match-up at the end of the year a coupla games ago and you've done nothing but continue to win since then, so quit crying. Your team is undefeated and has beaten teams that have won against Miami and a Big Ten team and won at a USF team that hung around with FSU so congratulate them so don't act like a T-shirt fan and say 'joke of a team' - it makes you sound like an [deleted]. As an SMU fan I'd rather you go back to being an obnoxious [deleted] than a guy who doesn't know how to celebrate his team becoming successful - and heck yeah they deserve a spot in the top 25 as much as anybody.
As a native Memphian and someone who attended U of M be proud of Fuente and the Tigers - they deserve that. Even this board has complemented them and is proud the American has them reaching their potential. They don't need their own calling them names when there is enough loser non-alumnus UT and Ole Miss fans who are going to do that anyway.

I'm just surprised Navy doesn't get more respect from SMU fans-we should know better :idea:

Real chance they threaten the team single game rushing yard or TD record against us

NCAA single game team rushing record is 768 yards (Oklahoma, 1988). Definitely at risk vs Navy

Also of note:
Rushing TDs in a single game: 12 (UTEP 1948, Coe 1971 (div 2), Concordia 1977 (div 3)
