Can't you just picture the first game this next year..

Our video intro should play "Hells Bells" or something like that and have a picture of a Tombstone reading SMU Football - and an unearthed and empty grave.

Truly think this program is on the verge of rising from the death penalty.. let's just say we've been on a ventilator for a while - Junes Jones is the shock paddles.

SMU was neither too irradiated nor too much in a coma to put it on TCU a couple of years ago and play them to a standstill this year.

That's a perfect marketing pitch. Or, a hand could come out of the grave and then fade to "We're Back!!"

B Team article from a B Team newspaper. Remind me again who owns the Startlegram? Fatterson's offense is going to look pretty stale with Andy Dalton at the helm next year.

TCU does not matter, nor does N. Texas, Rice, Baylor, Tx. Tech, A&M, etc. In the past SMU was its own worst ememy. It is all about SMU. Pony up.

That would be an amazing visual, but I am sure some of the old fogies who still give a lot of money would be offended, and/or scared.

It should have a skeleton peruna climb out of it, start running at the camera POV while morphing into a live peruna, then, once it has formed into a living appearance, the real peruna runs across the field.
