As the season has progressed, SMU's program has regressed

to a point that makes it highly unlikely that they possess the

capability of derailing a team like Houston. Both Tulsa and

Southern Mississippi would seem to pose a much greater threat

to the Cougars.

Seriously?

In point of fact, Houston really hasn't play anyone who was

worth a damn. If SMU could demonstrate that they have any

cojones...they could win that game.

right now of all the teams that have moved so far TCU is
less of a winner than everyone else that has moved.

Sorry to disappoint you, Au79stang, but that dog won't hunt.

The more pertinent question being; just how much longer will this

annual series between TCU-SMU survive? Will the rigors of scheduling

allow for only occasional meetings? Much like the current scheduling

with Texas Tech and Baylor. The times they are a-changin'.

And Louisville is set to follow suit shortly thereafter.

Cincy is also remains a distinct possibility. This will

of course depend entirely on what happens with BYU.

It's surprising, that the $40 million commitment to refurbish Rice Stadium

is only a little less than the total amount that SMU spent in constructing

Ford Stadium. Of course, Rice's stadium is constructed of concrete, while

Ford is composed of aluminum bleachers covered with a brick facade.
