Prediction: Beat Baylor, TCWho, and we will be 6 - 0 #10 going to Clemson.

Going out on a limb are you :?:

11 - 1 ceiling, and a 6 - 6 floor sounds reasonable. I'll pencil in wins against ET A&M, Mizzou State, Stanford, Wake Forest, Boston College, and Cal.

Getting to be tail wagging the dog. Kick the bums out, and let them start their own version of the NCAA, and playoffs.

That might get you in trouble with your conference. Probable contract obligations?

Re: 2025-2026 cost of attendance

As a junior transfer from KIlgore College in 1972, I paid about $1600 per semester. Also worked at Brookshire's grocery while going to Kilgore College to save SMU tuition, and had construction summer jobs back home while at SMU. Oh yeah, I had a T.E.G. (tuition equalization grant) of $600 per year ...

Re: How to get bball game?

Should be able to stream it on ESPN2 with a free trial on Fubotv, and Youtube Live. Just remember to cancel on or before the trial is up or your credit card will be charged.

Re: MBB earns No. 1 seed in NIT, hosts Northern Iowa Wednesd

It's insane that 14 of 16 SEC teams made the March Madness tourney. South Carolina and LSU are the only teams left out.

Add in 26 none power 4 conference auto bids (27) and one has the NCAA tourney bids filled by one power 4 conference and the auto bids (total 41). That leaves 27 bids for the 3 ...

Re: Not done

Nope, Texas (19-15), and I think 13 other SEC teams got in the tourney.

That is beyond corruption :!:

Brand name bias. UNC also in

Whatever happened to unbiased juries? At least there should be a limit to teams per conference. No more than 50%. :lol: Wouldn't surprise me if the Whorns bought ...

Re: Chad Morris sighting

SMU 1968

I remember the joke back then was Excitement 68 S.M.U. 0

Turned out to be a fun year with Hixson, LeVias, and a Bluebonnet Bowl win over OU. I was a junior in high school, and got to see the N.C. State game win with the M.Y.F. and the win over A&M with my Dad (SMU 50), and brothers. If ...
