They aren't getting the big 12. Bad town. Bad academics. No sponsorship.

Keep at eye on the SMU v Memphis finale-the whole world could be watching if Memphis remains in BCS discussion
"With a quarter of a tank of gas, we can get everything we need right here in DFW." -SMU Head Coach Chad Morris

When momentum starts rolling downhill in recruiting-WATCH OUT.

Yeah, the fact that we have Memphis as our last game this year may work to our advantage.

If we are 9-2 and Baylor and TCU are still top 10 and Memphis is 11-0 that game could theoretically be for the access bowl.

I like where your head's at. I like that. To get to 9-2, I think our defense is really going to have to step up, and we're going to need to continue to see the 2nd, 3rd, 4th receivers step up. And continue to run the ball effectively consistently. Crazier things have happened.

Memphis plays Ole Miss, Houston, Navy and Temple. After seeing them yesterday, I doubt they will be 11-0 for that game vs SMU.

Oh and if Memphis was indeed 11-0, you can be sure they will get the nod after they win the American.

Ole Miss is going to hammer Memphis I think. Their defense has not been very good up to this point this year - they gave up a lot to Kansas in the first half of that game. Ole Miss will be able to keep up offensively and also control the game on the defensive line which will force turnovers left and right.

UH, SMU, BYU, Cincinnati would all be taken before Memphis. Academics kills them. Good program for the vastly improved AAC. We need to focus on getting SMU football competitive (happening faster than any of us expected) and getting the Florida programs better. Really disappointed in UCF. The bottom looks to have fallen completely out of that program. UH, Memphis, Cincy, Temple, and Nacy all look very solid. AAC>>>>>><MWC.
Back off Warchild seriously.

Whoever wins the conference needs to have the type of season to go to the P5 bowl.
