So if..and this is a BIG if...we defeat TCU in Ft Worth, do we have a sign that says "Thank You, Frogs" ?

He has lost three of the last four. The announcers erred by forgetting that Kansas State won the Big 12 last year not the Frogs. I haven't seen Chandlers numbers but TCU IMO would have won today if Duggan was back. Sonny was actually lucky when Chandler went out last season.

Of course that is based on last year. Those are very different teams compared to last year. I suspect TCU has dropped off but Colorado might be significantly improved. We'll find out about TCU soon enough but it will be interesting to see how those teams fare in their conference games

Meanwhile, although there remains a lot of animosity towards Sonny, we can probably thank him for SMU's invitation to the ACC. When he left, he commented that "he had taken SMU as far as he could", undoubtedly a reference to the fact we were stuck at the G5 level and he obviously didn't see any hope of any power conference invitation.
I give him credit for having captured lightning in a bottle with last year's playoff invite at TCU and expect he's now probably reached the pinnacle of his coaching career. His leaving lit a fire under SMU's big money donors who have really stepped up and hopefully will continue doing so until SMU earns a spot in the CFP. Let's hope more SMU alumni and Dallas area college sports fans jump on the bandwagon and support this program as well.

These toads been talking so much trash about how we got into the ACC and that they needed to end our series because their fans hate our stadium experience and the risk to reward wasn't worth it in playing us. Nothing would make me happier than to smash them this year and go on to become a national powerhouse in the ACC. Shut your purple faces.
