Cam not necessarily Bo. If you are an SMU fan then you can't really cast a stone at them considering what happened here.

Southern Catholic University Mustangs (SCUM) probably would not go over well with big donors.

Okay, I just knew it was started by the Methodist. And why do you keep telling me ND is Catholic?? Did you know the winters are cold in Alaska?

I thought being a christian was a personal decision. Is the top ten typically filled with atheist schools?

Have to say that Texas CHRISTIAN University is the least "Christian" of the three, BU, SMU, TCU. SMU is owned by the United Methodist Church. Baylor is almost fundamentalist Baptist. TCU has become almost a secular school. Only five members of its Board of Trustees are even members of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ). There are more Methodists on its Board than Disciples of C. There are more Episcopalians on its Board than D of C. Don't really think God is a Mustang, a Bear, and certainly not a Frog.

SMU is entirely secular outside of the theology school.
