Put some Big 12 money in our pockets.

I thought that the fact the big XII-2-1 added a conference game meant that someone had to be dropped, it was us.

So they were more chicken of us than TCU?
Re: Northwestern State
Posted: Mon Sep 12, 2011 4:10 pmno, but a win over TCU would do more for their program than a win over SMU. and a loss to TCU would not set them back one bit, whereas a loss to SMU would look a lot worse.

Posted: Mon Sep 12, 2011 4:12 pmActually the TCU game was a Baylor home game. They needed to drop an away game.
Northwestern State
Posted: Mon Sep 12, 2011 4:15 pmMRydel is right. If SMU was told it was adding a conference game and had to drop a nonconference game, of course fans would want an away game dropped as opposed to a home game.

Posted: Mon Sep 12, 2011 8:35 pmi'd MUCH rather play NWSt than BU this year. but then again, i've always been a proponent of loading up non-conf games w/ easier teams. the only way to bust the BCS is to be undefeated.

We do play them next year and Robert Griffin III is a junior so he could very well be their starting QB in 2012.

Whatever his title is next year I hope it includes "NFL Quarterback".
