Fresno State or Nevada?

Postby SMU 86 » Sun Dec 06, 2009 10:52 am

Which do you think it will be. Which would be the best for SMU to play.

I'm hoping for Fresno. For that reason and that reason only, I'm sure it will be Nevada.

I would rather lose to Fresno State than to Nevada. As RGV says, that is why it will most likely be Nevada! We better win!!!

Either. Both are WAC and both are traveling to Hawaii. Does that give SMU an advantage? JJ knows these two teams and the flavor of the WAC. These teams don't know the flavor of CUSA. JJ knows how these two teams have responded to trips to Hawaii. SMU isn't UH but JJ this is in many ways JJ's world. Will it be a slight advantage for SMU?

I'm hoping we can get the UH season ticket holder email list and have JJ spam email 'em and give them some big discounts

Unfortunately I believe it will be Nevada since Fresno came to Hawaii during the regular season and Nevada didn't. I think beating Fresno has more benefits for us.

Either or, they both posses a power running game and will shred our D.

Much rather see Nevada. Fresno is way to experienced and just racked up 50 something points on Big Ten Illinois. Know they aren't exactly a power in the Big Ten but still impressive. Truly feel we match up better against Nevada.

Nevada has THREE 1,000 rushers this season. That would spell disaster. I hope it's Fresno.

yep, works better for others w/ different personnel.

Ol' PB's staff is everywhere...Vinklarek & Edmondson at Rice, Burns at TCU, PB at Pittsburgh.

Still glad they're gone. Never wouldve gotten "the change" to the whole system and approach to football without JJ on the hilltop demanding it.
I will not make age an issue in this campaign. I'm not going to exploit for political purposes my opponent's youth and inexperience.
