I thought the list someone posted the other day showed no TV. I do not consider ESPN 3 television.


No they never come out with the full schedule this early. Hell we don't even know who is televising SMU v Baylor or the time of the game. The TV Contract is going to be great for exposure

"The 2014 season is the first under The American's new television contract, which provides for 80 percent of conference-controlled games on national television platforms, including ABC, ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, ESPNews and CBS Sports Network."

I hope our coaches are really emphasizing this in recruiting but not sure they are.

I have too much power to be confined by the title of Mayor.

Then, how about "The Blount" of Sherwood. Not to be confused with, the smoker of "blunts" in Sherwood.

from the email sent out by the athletic department:

A lot can happen in 100 years – and it has. Since Coach Ray Morrison held his first football practice on the morning of Sept. 14, 1915, marking the birth of the SMU football program, SMU has experienced much athletics success.

To celebrate “A Century of SMU Athletics,” SMU Athletics will be counting down 100 iconic moments in its history leading up to the first football game of 2014 on August 31st at Baylor. Be sure to follow SMU Athletics on social media to relive and revel in these historical moments. You can also follow the countdown online at http://www.smumustangs.com/100/ . The celebration will continue throughout the 2014-2015 season and be highlighted in promotional items, in-game features and more!

As part of this celebration, fans are invited to “Declare Your Tradition.” What does being a part of SMU Athletics mean to you? Is it tailgating on the Boulevard with your family before attending a football game? Or dressing in costumes to attend men’s basketball games? Share your photos and stories on social media with the hashtag #DeclareSMU or submit to [email protected] and your photos and/or stories could be used in upcoming promotional materials!
GO MUSTANGS!

And the List starts with a thud!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Really, the first practice in 1915 is one of the greatest moments in SMU History. How about the first game, first play, first score, first Homecoming Queen too. I hate these lists.

And by the way, having 100 moments is way too many. They could have kept it interesting by doing 1 moment per decade or top 10 over the past 100 years. I really thought they were going to announce different throwback uniforms for every home game including the Walker era, Levias era, Meredith era, and Pony Express era, but I guess a top 100 moments list is way better...

Brad (and Stallion) thank you for clarifying this. But I swear in the past 2 weeks someone made a post that I thought was a listing of televised games for the AAC teams. Can someone help me out and tell me what I missed in my non-drunken stupor?
