If you look at Baylor's OOC schedule for the past several years and for the foreseeable, it is obvious SMU is not the issue, it's a planned strategy of playing creampuffs such as Wofford, LA Monroe, Rice, Buffalo, Sam Houston State, SF Austin and yes, SMU these past couple of seasons only. Their next P5 OOC opponent is DUKE and its 3 years from now. Their OOC schedule that year also includes powerhouses Liberty and UTSA. They also have Duke and UTSA scheduled for 2018.

Future opponents for next 2 years include SMU, Rice, Lamar and Northwestern State.

Don't exactly understand why WE are singled out as the weak link that needs to be replaced. Seems like playing at Ford is tossing your Dallas alum a bone.


Don't they play Tech at AT&T Stadium for the next few years?

In Baylor's defense didn't they play Wofford because we backed out of game with them?

I hope this is sarcasm. We should be playing and working hard to beat teams that people actually care about at every opportunity.

No more fans will show up for a game at Ford against Kansas or Wake Forest than they would if we played Louisiana Tech.

FYI - There is no truth to the rumor that we are trying to buy out the Baylor game.

I'd like to play Baylor and not have the game over at the half.

We should be playing a cupcake schedule trying to get to 5/6 wins.
