Re: SMU wants to break ties with the United Methodist Church

Wake Forest was originally the Southern Baptist Convention school for NC. In the 80s/90s, it broke from the Southern Baptist Convention and shifted its affiliation to the American Baptist Churches USA (originally, the Northern Baptist Convention). Fairly recently they totally dropped their ties to ...

Re: UVA Game

Looks like weather will be cool and great. Places to eat in Charlottesville. The big chains are there. Timberwood is good. Burgers and lots of beers on tap. Burton's Grill and Bar is good as well. If you want to drive 45 minutes, there are a ton of great places to eat in Scottsville. The Batteau is ...

Re: UVA Game

Shaping up to be a pivotal game. If we beat BC, UVA game could clinch berth in ACC championship. If we were to lose to BC - it is a must win. Either way - pivotal game.

Tickets are extremely cheap as UVA students will be on break. Starting at $17 and front row midfield for around $50.

Anyone know ...

Re: Mustangs To Play At Notre Dame In 2026

This is very exciting. If you haven't been to South Bend for a game, it should be on your bucket list. My son, also an SMU grad, texted me that he and my grandson will be joining me. An easy drive from Chicago too.

Our restored tradition will be enhanced by all their traditions in a Notre Dame ...

Re: Virginia head coach Tony Bennett suddenly retires

Impact on our early game with them? Big, little or none?
:idea:
Hard to say. The defense will be there as usual and there are some new pieces that are supposed to help on offense which was the big problem last year (couldn't make FTs to put away the game, for pete's sake). Ron Sanchez one of the ...

Re: Memphis & Tulane to an Expanded Pac-12

WVU fans think nothing of keying your car or cursing you out (and then they wonder why no one likes them). Our board (thesabre.com, BTW) is loaded with horror stories of trips to Morgantown. And thn you have te burning of couches.

To paraphrase Colonel Kilgore, "I love the smaell of burning couches ...

Re: Bring back baseball?

Given the prominence of lacrosse, men and women, in the ACC, I would be thrilled if we added this sport. And, we would become the first Division 1 school in Texas to have it.

BTW. It os a fantastic spectator sport.

Could possibly be a recruiting advantage although I don't know how big lacrosse ...

Re: Your Away Game Plans?

Word to the wise for anyone driving from the DC area to Charlottesville. The trooper and county mounties have the schedule, too, so they know when the home games are and can expect a high volume of traffic. They have places they like to hide along US 29, particularly the Greene County deputies. One ...

Every one of your opponents is going to have to come up with some scheme to limit his effectiveness. Not going to be easy one bit.

I'm trying to make all five! I'll buy my Nevada and Louisville tickets today.

* Nevada and Stanford are 2+ hour drives from my house.
* I bought a plane ticket for Louisville last month.
* For Duke, I'll stay with a friend in Raleigh (just like the ECU game last year)
* For Virginia, what's the ...
