1) The .500 factor: After this season, SMU's all time record stands at 423-422-54, one game above .500. The SMU-TCU series is now tied at 38-38-7.
2) This means that next season's opener will the the 900th SMU football game.
If anyone has the scores for SMU's first season, please let me know. I have all of them except for 1915, when they went 2-5.

Don't know about 1915 but in 1918 SMU beat TCU 1-0. That's right, 1-0. It was a forfeit. I wasn't there so I don't know why they forfeited. I didn't start going to SMU games until 1916.

Did they have Nachos in 1916?

The TCU bus got stuck in the mud in 1918 on the way to the game - thus the forfeit.

In 1916 you had to go to Nuevo Laredo for "Nachos." That was before the "microwave."

I'm thinking the plastic orange cheese goo that they squirt on nachos these days is actually from the same batch that was first made in 1916.

Actually, the government runs a number of top secret nacho cheese reclamation plants that are used in a vast international ‘plastic orange cheese goo’ recycling conspiracy.
I was planning on breaking the story in the National Enquirer, but I felt that I needed to redeem my credibility after the D-lineman size/weight fiasco.
Happy Thanksgiving everybody!

Don't tell me your still looking for those two 340 pound offensive linemen Adami was busting his butt rushing against. Sounded plauseable to me...
Easy on the turkey there PerunaPunch.
