The Magazine of Texas football is now on sale. Picked mine up today.

They picked us to go 7-5 (6-2) AAC. They had us losing to Texas Tech, TCU, A&M, Cincy and Houston.

They predicted SMU to finish second in the ACC. Interesting.

Also interesting is the fact that they picked us to lose to Houston but had them going 4-4 in conference.

SMU has not played very well in Houston, that's my guess.

Home field / revenge?

I'd like to think we'd sack up in that position with a conference title on the line but lwjr is right about our futility down in Houston.

Have we only beaten them once since 1989 down there? I remember a game that I believe was during the 2005 season that we won on a field goal.

I believe we beat Cougar High in Houston this year as they have more ? as a team than we do right now. I also believe we will beat Tech and play a close game against TCU. I haven't seen Dave Campbell's Mag yet to see their predictions, but I think Rutgers will be a tough game and UCF even though they are both at home.

Those days are over. We are better than UofH now. Truly. I would have never said that before last year post-DP. Sims was really their last stud that scared anyone. If the guys play inspired, it's a win.

2005 was a 29-24 win with a last second field goal ... I guess they weren't able to run out the clock for whatever reason. Also played to a 28-28 tie in 1993.

Big if considering how bad we generally play on the road.

"Playing inspired" it's something that hasn't happened much lately, either.

Whatever. Keep your moronic negative comments to yourself. We played very inspired against Fresno. Great to see the good DCTF review

How have the Campbell's predictions played out over the past few seasons?
