SMU actually lost that game at Moody by 12, no idea what the line was, but I would have to think we were not more than 12 point dogs, so I say that guy lost his $10k bet.

bracket busters are in February. Here's an article from the 2005-2006 season on the bracket busters that year from our beloved Bobbi Roquemore.

We played them in the bracket buster game in Feb. 2005 and lost by 11. The game in question was their return game here in Nov. 2005 when we lost by 12.

Just checked our archives.

It really is bad when the other team is trying to keep it close and you still can't keep it close.
