Don't only the University bands of the schools actually playing in a bowl game get to march in the Bowl parades? And I kinda doubt that they'll be marching on January 20 either.

Was it a bowl parade? It didn't say in the paper that it was the Cotton Bowl parade, just the new year's day parade.

You are asking should they, or did they?

It's essentially the Cotton Bowl Parade, which is why they are debating whether or not to have it here or in Arlington next year.

Now if they could make Arlington look like Pasadena maybe having the parade in Arlington would make sense, but really now...Arlington???
Of course having run to Jerry World for their new abode, screw them. Have the parade in Arlington and look as small time as they deserve. While they are at it, they should change the name of the game to the Jerry Bowl. 
SMU's first president, Robert S. Hyer, selected Harvard Crimson and Yale Blue as SMU's colors to symbolize SMU's high academic standards. We are one of the few Universities to have school colors with real meaning...and we just blow them off.

SMU should take advantage of almost any chance to get the school out there in the public's view. If they can march in a major parade especially one in Dallas then yes they should not leave that opportunity on the table. The people of Dallas should get constant reminders that SMU is the local Dallas school and needs and would appreciate their support!

And if you want the SMU band to march in the New Years' day parade, who is going to pay for it? Remember, this occurs during the winter break and the students are home for the holidays. They will have to be brought back to Dallas, put in some sort of housing, meals, travel to the parade site, etc, etc.
The bands that are in the Cotton Bowl are already being provided these expenses as participants in the bowl. If you can get the Cotton Bowl to cough up a few $10K to cover the expenses, then I agree the band should be a part of this event, but I just don't see it happening.
