it was a good crowd though, certainly best since tech. Better and more Pony fans than I expected.

When we compete well enough to keep the crowd past halftime, then we'll be cookin'.

Bergermeister,
The thing that stings is that what he said is dead on. We currently have the worst starting quarterback in America.
Back off Warchild seriously.

not according to the QB ratings on espn.com[/quote]
Kind of interesting to see that ranking system has him at #66 overall, 20 spots ahead of both Andy Dalton, and Kevin Moore, the Tulane QB. Bo does have a decent completion percentage, and alot of yardage, but he's also leading the nation in interceptions.
Try not to choke on the Kool-Aid.

he's also the only QB in JJ's 30 years of coaching, 5 years of playing, to throw an INT on both a screen and shuttle pass, and have one go for a TD.

We do need more fans like me... I am leaving for New Orleans tomorrow for the game Thursday night to cheer on our Mustangs. Most SMU football fans won't even travel across University Park to see us play. I don't have anything against BLM, however he hasn't even shown "flashes" of what a D1 QB should look like. I hope he comes out against the Green Wave and lights up the scoreboard, and I will be the 1st to say I was wrong. If he doesn't, I think JJ would be doing both the team and the fans a disservice by leaving him in the rest of the year. If we are going the freshmen route (which is the best option) then give Logan Turner a shot. JJ originally said that the QB situation would be reevaluated after the first 4 games, so hopefully he will make a change if BLM throws 5 or more picks this week

it was actually the first 3 games not 4 that JJ said he would reevaluate the QB position. Dont know if he truly did some reevaluating but BLM is the starter for the 4th game.
I know I would make the trip but i have tests and papers due on thursday and friday. I know other students who would make the trip but the same is for them as well.
and as for JJ jumping ship and giving the rings to turner, i doubt that will ever happen. If JJ does change QBs, he'll prove he was wrong in his assesment of HIS guy, BLM. JJ would never do that.
