I hate TCU

[03Mustang]

I'm sorry, shouldn't you be in Pasadena like any other "real" fan? Don't come on our board talking smack when you can't even go support your team.

I woulda gone if we played in our own stadium. I bet you went to yours.

I did, and there's no way I'd miss a game in Pasadena if we played in our 2nd Rose Bowl in school history.

That's not the point, though...your team is playing in the ROSE BOWL and you're on Ponyfans.com talking smack....who's little league again?

[TCUBCSBOUND]

I can multitask.

By the way there's TCU staff that can't go because they have their two basketball teams playing tomorrow. Are they not real fans?

I'm in similar situation.

I went to the Fiesta last year and woulda gone if we had gotten to play Oregon/Auburn. Rose just fell on "one of those days"

Can't let anyone from TCU have the last word on one of our threads.

[TCUBCSBOUND]

Why not? haha.

[b_caesar]

Why not? haha.

Good night, John Boy.

Back to your swamp, froggie.

Although, you do realize that by continuing to post in this thread, you are helping its title to stay near the top of our football forum - meaning that everyone else who visits will get a pretty good instant idea how we usually feel, despite all the bandwagon love that's been hopping around.

That's perfectly fine with me - I'll be glad to help perpetuate this thread if that's what you truly want.

Happy New Year!

We already use the TCU Model. That was a great rationale before 2008. This is for the Little Schools and whether they are going to continue to have a seat at the Big Boy Table. Unless they do have access to BCS Bowls schools like SMU will always be at a huge disadvantage and now that TCU will be BCS they will have a huge advantage over SMU in recruiting every Texas kid. But that's spoiled milk because TCU drew Aces and knew the score a Decade before SMU woke up.

If your school's official cheer is:

"Rif, Ram Bah Zoo

"Lickety, Lickety, Zoo, Zoo

"Who, Wah, Wah, Who

"Give 'em Hell, TCU" …

…you're probably not going to be embarrassed walking around dressed as a grape popsicle.

Hate them if you must, but they are where we wish we could be. They have an administration that gets it...we have one that is just not really sure...

Our administration gets it. Dont know why everyone whines about that. This is a University first - as it should be.

As the torches are lit and the mob gathers to demand that SMU lower admission levels to the level of Troy, Fresno, NTSU and Louisiana Tech just keep in mind that TCU was ranked No. 3 among all Top 25 teams in Academic Progress Ratings(APR). In fact, TCU easily had the second highest APR of all teams in Texas and Big 12 South (Rice was No. 1). You guys are about 2 decades late to the argument. We are arguing about 1-2 academically very marginal recruits a year that could be replaced by a simply marginal academic recruit who might actually graduate. Formerly, we were talking about limiting ourselves from recruiting 60% of the Top players in Texas. I am absolutely convinced that SMU can compete with the academic standards that have been in place since 2008 and also convinced that June Jones right now signs more academically marginal recruits than Patterson at TCU. I'd be more concerned with investigating how we keep our recruits eligible and improving facilities
