Re: College football playoff rankings (through 11/16): SMU 1

SMU should jump Alabama and Ole Miss with each now having 3 losses. I think SMU should also jump Boise State who is just not playing well in a very poor conference. In addition, I think Indiana should drop below us but the committee wonΓÇÖt do that. I predict weΓÇÖll be ranked 10 on Tuesday. Keep ...

Re: Unofficial TCU at SMU game thread

I have been wondering why TCU wanted to "suspend" this series....makes much more sense now.

Re: I don't know which was worse

As a Mustang fan/alum I could care less about both A&M and UT, but I get a kick out of the Aggies complaining about losing their coach this way. Yeah, the guy is a j@#ck%%%%$$ the way he handled it, but this (unfortunately) is the new state of college athletics.

I looked back at an article dated ...

Re: I've seen enough.

It may a bit unfair to get rid of him after a couple years and if we were staying in the AAC I would be in favor of giving him one more. But we are now in a big-time basketball conference and I don't see him as the right man to put together a team that can compete. My fear is that he is back next ...

Re: AAC Championship Thread

What a night. I feel like I did after the Rangers won the WS....50% Euphoria and 50% disbelief. What a great time to be a Mustang.

Re: Thoughts on the ECU game

A win is a win. Would love to see us dominate in every area but we aren't at that point yet. Just win anyway we can...and next week just win any way we can.

Changing subjects, as much as I dislike non-saturday games I will enjoy a stress-free Saturday having already had a Ponies win.

Enjoy the ...

Re: TCU "pausing" series with SMU -- 2025 last game on sched

If we did recruit people off their active team then that is BS. That's like breaking unwritten rules of baseball. Sure you can do whatever you want but don't expect it to slide as we're seeing.

Recruiting an active member of another team who's not on the portal is worse than "stealing recruits ...

Re: SMU can add immediate $ to ACC media deal

Like many on here I'm accustomed to disappointment! No way would/should we now pivot to getting our hopes up on the ACC. We are headed towards a world of (stealing some old terminology) Division 1 made up of the most attractive from the former P5 conferences and a Division 2 made up of those who don ...

Unfortunately the Pac 12 will be "raided"....but so will the Big XII....and so will the ACC....etc. And while we are at it, FF, rest assured your beloved Brett Yormark is on the lookout for his next opportunity. I say "unfortunately" because this constant game of leapfrog just disgusts me. Maybe I'm ...

Re: Lashlee is a riverboat gambling IDIOT!

Agree the decision was questionable but I can't blame him for going for it in that situation. Having said that, if that is the best play we have with the game on the line, then we have no business doing anything but kicking and taking our chances in OT. As soon as that play developed it was ...

Re: UTSA quarterback Frank Harris eturning for 7th (!) seaso

Did anyone ever think they would see a college player stay around for 7 years on a six figure contract? I guess I am old and miss the good ol days.
