Pony of the Week

[Corso]

My nominee: FOY MUNLIN

[ClassOf81]

Tony Eckert and Matt Rushbrook!

[Hoofprint]

Chris Foster was terrific.

I SAY THAT IT SHOULD BE THE ENTIRE TEAM AND COACHING STAFF!!!!!

[Corso]

Well, I wanted to see Foy Munlin get it, but your choice of Coach Burns is a great choice.

And the honorable mentions for Munlin, Foster and Rushbrook are well-deserved, too.

I think the almost 18K who attended the game this past Saturday. Outside of the Tech and OSU games at Ford the last 2 years, it was definately one of the best "SMU" attended games in a long time.

Maybe there's something to this 'Park Cities Appreciation Night' and 'Family Weekend (Parents' Weekend)' thing after all!!!!!!

[The PonyGrad]

Except for when we had more this is the best since... Thanks for the usual negative framing.

It was a good crowd and a fun atmosphere and it was an SMU crowd. I can't find the negative.

I would have voted for Phil Bennett. He really took a lot of heat over earlier losses, and while he didn't personally make tackles or catches, or even coach a specific position, he anchored the recruitment of many of the players who made plays Saturday, and he coordinated a staff of assistant coaches who had us ready on both sides of the ball.

Here's an honorary Game Ball for Coach Bennett.

I would have to agree - congratulations to Coach.
