St., Michigan, Notre Dame express bias against the home team when they are playing at home. if they did they would never announce another game for that team. ' homer' announcers are almost a given at most schools- oh, remembered we are SMU and we do what SMU does. then they wonder why fans don't show up for games etc.


Good point

Thought the same thing....

This crew has probably called more Houston games than SMU. They kept saying Gaffney before figuring out it was Goffney

Nine TD passes. Why not get 10 and just set the bar high enough that it will never be eclipsed?

Up to 71 offensive plays. As quickly as these guys have been scoring, might need 3 more possessions to break the record

Nothing comes easy for this SMU team. Watch for an onside kick or something crazy but we just need to hang another 7 on these guys

What exactly are you listening to? TV guys? Radio guys?

Must be nfl network broadcast. They’re worse than the normal. I had to go out to my car and listen on 570

Two touchdowns away from the highest scoring game in college football history.

Lol @ 570. Can't we, in Dallas, get games at least on FM radio? Also this evening I walked by a Dallas sports bar playing like 7 different broadcasts and no SMU. Do I have to be at an SMU Blvd bar to see the game?

It's kinda sad and somewhat of a reflection that no one in our admin ever played college sports. We need some people with a little bit of an FU attitude somewhere.

New job posting. Defensive coordinator wanted.

Regarding the broadcasts, even the NFL network has Houston and B12 bias. It’s sickening.

No defense. We are never safe from the other team making a comeback. Please score again SMU.
