Turkey Day Game

Post by 35straight »

Has there ever been any thought to moving the SMU/TCU game to Thanksgiving weekend. This is rivalry weekend throughout the nation and would really increase attendance for a weekend that is terrible at the hilltop. Could be hard to schedule for next year with new conf. schedules, but makes pretty good sense.

Mentioned during game thread that we need a true conference rival. I see TCU and Baylor as rivals

Very much against SMU/TCU on Thanksgiving. Attendance is still brutal no matter who you schedule on this weekend for the SMU fan base.
No sense in having a marquee game get sacrificed.
