geez, it's not like it's Waco, Fort Worth is a great town. Maybe you should stick to Conference smack.... no that won't work. How about all time head to head? Maybe not. The recent record, lets say, last 10 years.... OK, stick to the my town is better than your town.

Soccer smack is available as a backup, I guess..

Compared to Dallas, Cowtown is a dump. The TCU campus, compared to SMU, is hideous- I was shocked at how ugly it was when I went for the game last year. And it's worse academically. In the last decade, you've had more success in football, and that's about it.

I can't think of a reason to go to TCU over SMU, unless you got rejected from SMU.

I think SMU should consider putting in real seats as
opposed to high school aluminum bleachers before
it can call another stadium an eye sore.


Clarification

I would assume that the description above is incorrect.

I've only seen pictures of the exterior of Ford Stadium.

As I recall the exterior is covered entirely with brick.

Therefore it would seem highly unlikely that the entire

inner structure of such a stadium would be composed

of aluminum bleachers.

I've sat in your stadium. And you have aluminum bleachers like us, so drop the high and mighty business.


Au contraire, the inner structure of TCU's stadium is constructed of

concrete. Only the seats are aluminum and they are mounted on a

concrete base. There are no aluminum bleachers per se.

Um, Fort Worth is the fastest growing city in the country. Most recently, CNN rated it the best place to live, surveying the largest 100 cities. I posted that link in your general forum, but it was mysteriously deleted. A simple Google search will do its justice, though.

I also find it funny how you want to get into academics: TCU is much tougher to get into than SMU - hell, look on Facebook's "SMU Class of 2012" and take a look at all your new Mustangs who were either denied or wait listed to TCU. From the looks of it, there must be 10 to 15 on that thread alone!

Even more, take a look at the thread for TCU's "Class of 2012" and you'll see the campus beauty thread in which well over 70 people have replied to. I read all 76 posts and not one post criticized the campus, rather almost all were comments of praise and admiration. TCU must be doing something right if 76 prospective students love it.

Key word: prospective. Maybe they'll still get accepted into Aggieland.

76 that we did not want anyway

[NickSMU17]

The fact that you are citing facebook makes you a [deleted]...like citing wikipedia to a court of law...

Admission wise, you have a valid point...49% of TCU students who apply are accepted to 50% of SMU students...

However the test scores and GPA required is lower for TCU, this included with lower tuition is the reason for more applicants....

TCU has a princton review admission selectivity score of 82 to SMU's 89...just so you aren't confused...the higher the number the harder to get in...Harvard is a 99...

TCU is a cute school...but in terms of contacts/reputation/alumni....it can't really touch SMU...

[MrMustang1965]

TCU is a cute school.

Never heard a school defined as 'cute'. That cracks me up.

That's why TCU has so many of them. Warts are ugly and so is TCU.

GO PONIES!!!

1. People who use bathtub crank don't use birth control, so don't thiink that the "growth" is from people who think stock yards are cool.

2. CNN also called AL Gore to win.


3. You are using a search on Facebook as reference?... hmm ok I'll tell my kid to do that on his next book report.



4. Dude, it's facebook..... did you "poke" somebody ?
