MUST WIN

Vegas is not convinced. We go into this game an underdog. So as good as we think we have suddenly become the odds makers don't believe it. Still I am a Bart father and predict;

Harvard Pink and Yale Black Ponies ------ 45
Green Waves of Nausea ------------------ 10

About the same line as Baylor over Texas. Ponies would be favored at home or on neutral field.

Go Ponies I can't wait for Saturday!!!!

I love Tulane's throwback helmets tbh. Wish they would wear them all the time.

We have got to show up and have the same effort we put out against Houston. 4-4 would be crazy!

NO LET DOWN GAME! I loved Ben Hicks interview right after the UH game, showed maturity. Was happy with the historic win but also kind of showed that it's just one game and we need to get back to practice and get ready for Tulane. Validate the UH win by going on a little bit of a run here now. Let that momentum carry forward. I expect it to be a tight game though.

For some reason SMU football has always struggled against Tulane. I remember flying to New Orleans in the DickerJames era for a game only to see us lose. The post Katrina game also comes to mind so I am very anxious to win this game and reverse our history!

It's that voodoo that Tul U do

Good news is we blew them out last year so I'm believing that Chad has broken the curse!

There is a giant green T pointing towards New Orleans right this minute. Someone has put a voodoo spell on the ponies
