Hope?

Post by East Coast Mustang »

I harbor no misguided illusions that we can beat Baylor in Waco. But a respectable showing that isn't a complete blowout and gives us hope for the rest of the season would be nice.

A&M was an 11pt underdog at SC and won by 24
I think Temple was a 14pt underdog at Vandy and won by THIRTY

College football is crazy. Anything can happen. I'm excited for Sunday. No, I haven't started drinking yet this morning.

I don't think that it is unreasonable to believe that we can have a respectable showing.

A good start and a little luck, who knows.....


maybe we'll get a couple turnovers and get some pressure on them

I, for one, am certainly holding out hope.

If there were any hope, then we would have sold out our ticket allotment.

The Baptists have scheduled football on the Sabbath, making football an idol. God is upset by this and will judge them accordingly.

Methodists win!!!!

I don't think it is blind hope since both teams are replacing 12 starters. Anything can happen on either side. In fact, I think we should to some degree expect to play respectable.

Methodist believe in the Sabbath as well. So I believe after 7 years at SMU that June will have the team ready.
