Re: ESPN's Top 40 Recruiting Classes 2026

Power 3 doesn't work, playoff-wise, so ACC-XII consolidation isn't worth worrying about. If SEC and Big have their way, we'll be looking at a 2-conference super league (and the demise of college athletics, over time).

Hypotheticals about TCU, BU, TT are akin to arguments about the layout of the ...

Re: UNC going to the SEC?

We just need to keep winning. If we do that, good things can happen. Would the Big10 want to expand to Texas? Who would they want? That's why we have to kick in the door.

That's a great thought! I hadn't even considered a future like that (Battered Pony Syndrome), but it does make sense that the ...

Questions for the SMU Ticket Office

I have left multiple messages for a manager to call me back, I'm told I should ask for "Jackie," but I can't seem to get my question/rumor answered. Let's see if you guys have heard anything about this:

I bought tickets last year in the Weber End Zone plaza and sat at each game in the bar-top seats ...

I agree 100%. That's why I usually just listen to Rich and Scott broadcast on SiriusXM.

Re: Penn state Forums

I agree with GTH, it's like we bounce back after the bad games also (see Pitt after Duke). Makes me feel like our performance will be much better this game.

Re: Why do we keep wearing the same color as the other team?

Years ago there was a school of thought that if, say, Tulsa (lot of blue) came to town, and our fans wore blue, then photos of our fans would have a sea of blue behind them, making it appear as if the place was packed with our fans.

Don't know if that's the thinking of the current administration ...

Why do we keep wearing the same color as the other team?!?!

I noticed that the athletic department has asked us to wear blue for the TCU, Pitt, and Cal games. Why are we not "encouraged" to wear red for schools that have their colors as blue (Pitt and Cal are blue, but TCU is closer to blue than red)? These should be "wear red" games. And then I saw the "icy ...

Re: Saw this on another board, thought it was funny

I've never liked the phrase that we've had to "buy our way in," I feel like it's the opposite. Instead of having to suckle on the teat of the conference welfare system, we stood up and said we can pay our own way, not be subsidized by others. And yes, we still come out ahead of our income last year ...
