BACK IN BLACK

[Nacho]

are we going to have duck feathers on our shoulders?

[Bergermeister]

It has a place in June's heart and head.

Once you go black.....

People seem very concerned about what color uniform the team wears, or which horse steps on the field first. But I'll tell you what.
If SMU pulls off a road upset, and wins a conference championship on Saturday, those black uniforms will look pretty good. And we might have a new tradition. People might even want to see them in the next big game.

Since we are playing in UCF's stadium and they are the host team and we are the visitors, I believe we will be wearing white. Where is this idea of black unis coming from?

i heard bowl game.... not CUSA championship game

[HollywoodMustang]

Shoulda been wearing black until we had a winning season, in my opinion.

Any time a team wears a special uniform, they usually get whipped. You want a 'business as usual' mindset. I've said this on other threads. Routine, routine, routine.

Let's win the championship first and then talk about this (and no---winning the championship will not make me like the big horses one bit more!!!).
KICK 'EM MUSTANGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ponykeg]

Yeah, I miss the good old days too. Back when we wore Navy jerseys and Navy helmets, our coach wore socks, didn't wear stupid leis, we didn't have two Mustangs hanging around the corner of the endzone. Our coaches wore whistles in practice, and dog cussed the players as people were coming out of the United Methodist Church. The teams sure did suck, but at least we never broke out black jerseys for a bowl game! Oh well, one day that "[deleted]" June Jones will leave, and take all of his bs with him, and we can go back to the good old days, of getting our asses kicked every week.

[Junior]

those were the days

I really feel sorry for you two. Blindly following any leader in any endeavour without questioning motives and purposes can only lead to downfall. The end never justifies the means. You two just don't get it. Why can't we have both...winning and tradition.

Most of the posters on here were not even born when Meredith or Hixson , much less Kyle Rote played for SMU. If they were they wouldn't cast aside tradition as easily as they do now nor would they maintain that SMU was "getting our asses kicked every week". That didn't come about until the DP. We may not have won every game in "the good old days" but we were fully capable of it! And the other teams knew it! We had the respect of the nation as evidenced by our players appearing on the covers of national magazines.
