It seems in days of yore, there was a countdown ticker to the games on smumustangs.com. I am unable to easily locate one if there is one this year. Is there a ticker and if so where? And if not, why?

In case anyone wants to see a countdown ticker, here is the link:

Of course it is on the Red Raiders' fan site.

Ponyte:

I think you will find one on the Rivals/Mustangmania site. Just go to Rivals.com and find the SMU site and there it will be.

14 days 1 hour 20 minutes and counting.

I first entered it, got a date, and then changed my BMI to a higher number and got a date farther out. Ate a donut and then I just started hitting "enter" over and over without changing anything and the date changed significantly each time usually to a date farther out. I got close to living to 100. I will keep trying until I get there.

No worries, I am right there with you as I noticed I entered the wrong birthdate.

When I checked smoker vs. non-smoker, I got another 7 years. I guess I shouldn't have quit.

Don't quit, it's not worth it... I'm skinny and don't smoke and I'll only live to 74.

Eat and smoke away.

The biggest contributer is your attitude. I am an optimist and will live to 89. If I change to pessimist I die at 59.

That thing doesn't work. I'm already suppose to be dead.
