VIDEO: SMU football head coach Rhett Lashlee met the media Sunday to discuss the Mustangs' invitation to the Fenway Bowl, in which they will meet future Atlantic Coast Conference rival Boston College.
Coach is obviously disappointed and let's just hope the team feels disrespected and plays well in Boston, which should also be a fun trip and visit for the team.
CRL is a class act, to be sure, and he's handled all of the post-championship interviews perfectly.
We're all disappointed but this team sticks together like glue. I believe they'll make a first-class effort to win and make a statement going into next year, and finish this season in the Top15. Who wouldn't have been excited with that result when the season began?
Tentatively planning to be there 12/27-29. For anyone familiar with Boston, any suggestions for must-see sights? Can't-miss places to eat?
I think I may be going also. I am planning to fly out of Cincy on the 26th just in case of weather delays.
My amazing siblings, two of whom are SMU grads, have graciously paid for my flight, hotel and ticket to the game. I got lucky with the family I was born into.
