I like to think our rivalry is more like Harvard/Yale, its fun for us- without all those GED havin T-shirt fans mucking up the enjoyment. I don't believe either university will ever have the fan support of a UT, I mean, they graduate more in 2 years than we have in living alumni. It is what it is, and i am all for SMU winning, except when they play the Frogs. Some of you may not buy into that, want it to be like a Ohio State- Michigan or something. I say let it be what it is- something that is great for us, but not a huge national stage game. It could be better, which is why I like what SMU is doing this year. So kick the crap out of UT-Mexico, and we'll try to do the same to Utah. And hope we are both undefeated when we meet next year.


Well said and I agree 100%. Hopefully SMU football is about to have the kind of sustained turnaround that TCU has had after it's 1-10 season back in 1997.

I do not always root against a rival when we are not playing--and I don't always root against TCU--but I have decided that today the answer is no. I will not be rooting for them. I don't want to listen to all their we should have been in the national championship game crap.

But if our program becomes as successful as TCU's has........won't we be saying the same things?

Don't we already still [deleted] about not getting one 27 years ago? All I said was I didn't want to listen to them talk about it. Never said it wouldn't be hypocritical!
