If I were a bipartisan observer with a heisman vote I would not be impressed with Andy Dalton (ginger).

oh...and, I would be bigtime impressed with SMUs defense, too.

[HB Pony Dad]

Just chatted with Thad who is holding down the fort in HB!

We agree that all we need to do is hang around until the 4th Quarter and then lets see what happens.

We need Pony Nation to provide good vibes this critical 3rd Quarter!

PONY UP!

Here's too a memorable second half!!!! CHEERS!

[cutter]

hey, raplh -- how's it going?

[PoconoPony]

That catch by DJ was spectacular. We are proving we belong on the field. I think they have given up as many big plays as we have.

Only proves that that was one of the few times Padron made his primary read.

[cutter]

I agree.
the longer we hang around, the more worried they'll be and they'll start pressing.

[SApony]

89 yards rushing at the half. Not too bad against this defense.

Not sure if that was sarcasm, but I'd say relative to Baylor our defense is hanging in there pretty well. GO PONIES!

TCU gets the ball to start the second half right? We really need to stop their first drive.

oh, no. absolutely no sarcasm. I believe in our boys -- the D really looks impressive. even the inexperienced secondary is playing somewhat better. but, boy the front seven is very, very active.
I'm sure it has some bearing on Dalton's play.

[that's great raplh]

Yep they get it, you're right, a stop would huge for the team. Don't really want to go down double digits early in the third.

[SApony]

On the flip side, they are only averaging about 4.1 yards per rush against us. If we could plug up the middle, they would not be able to gain a yard. I think they have found out that we have too much speed to run outside succesfully

[that's great raplh]

go coach

[ReturnToGlory]

We're gonna win this son of a buck!
