Good stuff Pride. I was wondering if you were going to make the trip and glad to see that you did! I've altered Christmas Eve church services so that we can watch your pregame material and the game. It's not the same as being there in person, but the 60" HD will have to do. Have a great time and Go Mustangs!

The SMU football team went on a special outing Sunday, visiting Pearl Harbor, which had been a very specific goal for former assistant coach Frank Gansz. The team started its visit by browsing the Pearl Harbor Museum, before watching a 20-minute film about the events that led up to the Dec. 7, 1941 attack, and actual footage of the attack itself. That was followed by a five-minute boat ride out to the U.S.S. Arizona Memorial, a structure built over the still-submerged vessel.
