Nice.

And, by the way, when I visited Austin 2 weeks ago, I saw burnt orange everyday. It was EVERYWHERE. The worst news, is that I saw a TCU flag and an aTm flag on my street where we're moving to. There goes the neighborhood!

I think the #25 ranking is low and the team should be ahead of UConn, but the others seem right.

I agree. There will be skepticism with how good we can be without Mudiay from the national media until we win a big game. Also, if Emelogu is ruled eligible that will change things.

Been to Fedex Forum several times. The building is fine but generic. Fan-wise, while packed for Memphis games, there is not a huge home town advantage. Moody, feel-wise and fan-wise, is light years ahead. I do hope several years of success don't blunt the fan energy in our building........Can't speak to the UConn facility..........

If Gampel was such a great venue, Uconn wouldn't move its "big" confernence games to the XL Center in Hartford.

This year -SMU made the cut and our game will be at the XL Center.
