Too bad SMU scheduled this home game and Fall Break on the same weekend. Again. Idiots.

ECU's strengths are defense and a decent, balanced offense.

So true. We have 3 away games, and then our home game comes during Fall Break. As a student, this is really annoying because they did this same crap last year. I'm gonna be traveling for the break, and I'm sure many other students will. Nice job on the scheduling Steve =/

ECU's team philosophy is a lot like TCU's, but, they don't have TCU level of athletes. As for the team schedule, CUSA does that. SMU asked for three things in this years schedule, and got none of them.

Can't blame the university for this one. It's a conference game - the conference scheduled the date of the game. Fall Break was set by the university, but they did it way in advance of the schedule coming out.

Just seems like we get hosed like this every year. At least, every year I've been here.

Blah. I still have the stormcloud over my head from last night

We do get hosed.

Dear Conference USA,

Can you pretty please give us an away conference game the same day as the Red River Shootout? It really makes everything look like sh*t around these parts, especially the sub 10k attendance at our game.

Sincerely,
SMU

Dear SMU,
Sit on it and rotate.
Your Pals,
CUSA
