Houston just took the lead.

So the tripple option remains a very powerful offense that all defenses have trouble stopping, Nebraska dominated College football about 15 years ago with this attack, and GA tech won the ACC 2 years ago with it. If you run it effectively it works and works well. The problem with it is that you don't really have an ability to score quickly so if you fall behind you are in trouble. Also it has a high risk of fumbles because of the pitches.

SMU's first president, Robert S. Hyer, selected Harvard Crimson and Yale Blue as SMU's colors to symbolize SMU's high academic standards. We are one of the few Universities to have school colors with real meaning...and we just blow them off.

It's closer than I thought. Another hundred votes and we'd have this thing in the bag.

Nebraska had a hell of a defense back then. Easy to not fall behind when your defense is keeping opposing teams to 14-21 points per game. Of course, they also had a game where their offense scored 63 points in the first half against Arizona State.

Probably about as much as the city of Dallas did when renaming Industrial Blvd.

Can't believe we are letting Houston out vote us. :x
