Well the walkon said the team liked playing on the road in front of big crowds, so a BYU sellout of the AFB might be just the ticket for them.

Last years game was a sellout. Somehow I don't think the team wants to stay home again.

Still depends on what Hawaii does.

Indeed, last 3 are at home so that helps them.

I really hope we beat Rice on Saturday and subsequently play in the Armed Forces Bowl! If our players don't care about getting them back for the Holiday Bowl, the breakup of the WAC 16, they should at least care about BYU holding things up regarding the Big East! Use that to fuel their motivation!!! I want to beat BYU!!!

oh, who cares any more. June has gotten SMU to 23% of our bowl games in school history. i'd say that's worth something.
Ok this is getting ridiculous...I agree with Dutch on THIS ONE POST by him totally

The other 77% were to bowls that meant something. There are so many "bowl games" today it really reduces the significance of the experience. Yes, I understand it is better than not going to one...I'm just saying...
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.
