If you haven't noticed or live outside of the Dallas area, the UT longhorns are utilizing our football facilities as they prepare for the Cotton Bowl game. Not that it really does anything for us except some of their local fans will get a look at our stadium and just maybe will come to an SMU game some time....well maybe...

It can't hurt to have UT happy with us. I think the Big 12 representative, when they are in the Cotton Bowl, always works out at SMU. I guess this means that LSU is practing at Irving Schools Stadium, which I hear is newly renovated. Should be a good game.

LSU is practicing at Texas Stadium in Irving. I knew that didn't sound right about Austin. Texas hospitality only goes so far, you know. Trivia question: who does UT refer to as the sand ags?

yes I do...
they are practicing 9:45-1:00ish (10-12 on the field, rest of the time lifting) and only having one practice on saturday and sunday. As for Monday and Tuesday I believe they are having two-a-days, just not sure what time the second practices are...hope that helps! Image

From what I've read in the paper, the practices are closed and they have moved them into Ford Stadium to ensure they are closed. Don't know if you will be able to see much, though you might be able to see the field through the fence at the southeast corner of the stadium.

I don't know about anybody else but I really do not like the Texas Longhorns...they used to be our arch rival back when we were good and played in the Southwest Conference. I don't like the fact that they are practicing at our stadium or the fact that anyone else might think of this as a good thing. Maybe it is but I don't like. Sorry to be negative but I'm a Mustang...not a Longhorn and I know a lot of people down in the land of longhorns, big egoes and Teasippers. I don't like many of them but I have to hang out with them because they are my girlfriend's family. I hope they get the heck off of our campus and lose in the HOUSE THAT DOAK BUILT..not the house that Mack Brown built...the house that DOAK BUILT!!! Screw the longhorns.

Harvard,

It is true that the Longhorns left for greener pastures. However, let's put the blame that on Arkansas for leaving early, and Ann Richards for including Baylor instead of SMU. The Longhorns made the best of a bad situation.

There are only positive things that can come out of letting the Horns feel welcome on our campus. Maybe they will include us in a new conference in 2005.

It is funny how somebody that went to an elite private school can call somebody <B>else</B> a teasipper. Image

the only reason we're considered an elite school is because of the "elitist" kids that go there. it doesn't mean these kids are the cream of the academic crop...they just have money and texas-sized egos to go along (not all, so don't attack me Image there's a good reason my name is no longer SMUStudent06. but hell with the kids...go mustangs Image

Actually I didn't make that one up myself...I'm really in to the history of our university and that was our nickname for them way back when. And let me tell you ...some of those upper middle class people can sip some tea a lot worse than some of those rich folk I know from SMU. Another thing..everything my scholarship doesn't pay for tuition and school fees the state does.
