Rivals Predicts SMU vs UVA in Texas Bowl

Texas Bowl: Big 12 vs. Conference USA

Houston, Dec. 28
Virginia vs. Southern Methodist
We're working under the assumption that the Big 12 won't have enough bowl-eligible teams to fill all its bowl tie-ins. That would leave room in the Texas Bowl for an at-large team such as Virginia, which ought to go 7-5 if its offense improves much at all this season. The presence of Southern Methodist would at least give this game some type of local flavor. The return of quarterback Justin Willis â€“ last year's Conference USA freshman of the year â€“ could help the Mustangs earn their first bowl bid since 1984.

I'm excited that some publications are predicting SMU to go to a bowl this year.

But the potential [deleted] baggery in the stands that is sure to come with this game might be too much of a beat down for me.

That being said I'd probably fight through it and go.

He has to be referring to Houston fans.

Yeah, I hadn't heard anything bad about VA fans.

the ponys are predicted for the New Orleans Bowl also-
Troy vs SMU. There was another bowl mentioned from another
publication, --I cannnot remember the bowl. So there are 3
bowls that have the ponys listed now.
Which bowl game would the fans want to go to?

Lots of [deleted] bags that look like they walked out of a Brooks Brothers catalog and don't really care about the game.

Both fans are pretty apathetic. Mustang "fans" more so than Cavalier fans.

Sporting News predicted SMU vs W. Michigan in the GMAC Bowl.

UVa would be kind of fun. I have a bunch of friends who are UVa. grads. Might be a great excuse for a road trip.

You don't think 1st time in 20 some years is a good excuse?

Actually, many of my friends here are UVa grads. I went to law school with many of them and some of my high school mates went to UVa. So, I see Wahoos all the time. So I was thinking more in terms of a road trip with them. That would entail, well, drinking, and.... more drinking, and if we get bored, more drinking and oh I almost forgot, go to the game. They are the only people that I know that can hold their liquor as well as Mustangs.

UVA would be a great bowl game. There's a good deal of Virginia kids at SMU.
