If SMU wasn't in Conference USA

Postby George S. Patton » Sat Nov 01, 2008 10:05 pm

I probably wouldn't care about it. I don't watch CUSA games on TV because quite frankly, I'm not interested. And I'm pretty indifferent when the conference teams are in bowls.

Nothing shocking when I say this is really bad football.

You have your opinion and I have mine. Nobody stuck a gun to your ribs and asked you respond to this thread. But you did, so thanks for doing so.

As for the Gophers, tough loss. But it happens. I've already put it behind and looking forward to Michigan next week. It's a Gold Out in the Dome.


Minnesota Hats off to Thee!

True we shall ever be

Firm and strong united are we!
With a rah rah rah,

Rah Rah, Rah

Rah for the U of M!

M-I-N-N-E-S-O-T-A

Minnesota! Minnesota!

Yea! Gophers!

At least they've been to bowl games since 1987 when I arrived at SMU. Can our alma mater say the same?

And nobody stuck a gun to your head and asked you to rant about the state of C-USA football or those useless rodents you seem to like. But you did.

I wish I could thank you for doing so, but that would make me lose my lunch.

Minnesota is just like the rest of the Big 10 - very overrated. Minnesota and Mich St have no business being in the top 25.

The Gopher offensive line is really not very good. I thought they gave up on the running game too quickly.

No excuse missing a chip shot field goal. Also, I didn't like what they did at the end of the game. Start inside your 20 with 40+ seconds. Take a knee and go to OT. Your the home team.

As for the ranking, spew your frustration at the writers who put them there.
