In this case it was Abilene Christian that made the ecstatic announcement to the press that they were playing Baylor, SMU and A&M.

I forget the name of the coach, but I recall someone a few years ago suggesting that we should make the non-conference schedule easier.

They've both said it. The problem with June saying it was he was in years 4, 5, 6, and 7 of his tenure here, and he's complaining that it's not the ultimate-WAC warm butter-soft schedule that let Hawai'i go 12-0 before getting systematically dismantled by an SEC team. The schedules are made, obviously, years in advance. The schedule was made on the assumption that half a decade later he wouldn't have quit and be a sh*t coach running the program into the ground.

You really think Chad will even be here in 2021?

This is nothing new. We were scheduling the UTEPs and Gramblings and whoever of the world back when we were winning Cotton Bowls and being nationally ranked. What you do is not consider them trap games or apologize, but instead beat them 67-0 and move the f on to bigger things. Again, nothing new here.

And at least it's not Mary Hard-on Baylor.


The Crusaders could probably beat us.
