A good day

For Keenan Holman and DJ. Nice grabs on several marginal throws.

Gorgeous TD strike from Padron to DJ!!

-3 turnovers. Penalties for us, none for them. Discipline vs. Party-time. Defense played well enough to win. Only gave up 9 points. Offense handed them the game on the third play.
UNC better keep that Ram away from Peruna

Well said EastStang. And while we're at it, can we PUHHLLEEZZEE keep our uni's and whatever "____ out's" nothing but our school colors. Alot of people didn't get the "black out" cancellation notice. I wasn't doing it anyway. I was there to support MY TEAM not to honor the opponet. Keep it red, blue, or white.

Black jerseys looked like [deleted] and they were part of the problem. Still don't know what the thought process was behind the black jerseys. Supposedly the team was "pumped" to be wearing them...big deal. They were pathetic in the first half...obviously being pumped over your uniform doesn't help you play better. And if black unis are supposed to intimidate your opponents, Army evidently didn't get the memo. Deep six those ugly jerseys.
SMU's first president, Robert S. Hyer, selected Harvard Crimson and Yale Blue as SMU's colors to symbolize SMU's high academic standards. We are one of the few Universities to have school colors with real meaning...and we just blow them off.

Holman may turn out to be a go to guy. Let's hope he's working hard in the classroom, too

I think they are considered intimidating when it's all black uniforms.

The psycology of it all.

Psychological intimidation doesn't work unless you not only truly believe it, but act it, too.

I don't like the black unis - they're not any where in the SMU color scheme.

Nothing intimidating about the Mustangs yesterday. Think of the branding of it all for Pete's sake. Your one chance to build your brand on national TV and you bastardize it to the point that it's unrecognizable. That's Marketing 101.
