Based on countless posts about the menu, I'm guessing you have some affiliation with 1st & 10 ... which supports this site, doesn't it? With that in mind, you take an interesting stance, publicly predicting defeat for the team without knowing who we'll play. Isn't that counterproductive to business?

Even if we end up playing in Dallas, I expect the Mustangs to be far more energetic than in last year's AFBowl, if only because of the disappointment of that game. Hopefully it was made perfectly clear that playing in a bowl is a privilege, not a right, to play in a bowl game. I would hope that that game, coupled with a couple of the trainwrecks this year, would have us more inspired this time around.

I seriously doubt we go to Hawaii unless the University of Hawaii is involved, and even then, I would guess it's 50-50.

That was bowl projections after last weekend's games.
Only projection that matters is what Commish Banowsky wants.

You nailed it, Mitch. I believe Jones has been doing that for some time.
Wouldn't be surprised if he knew about the Daily Campus letter from the walk-on beforehand.
Quite strange.

ticketcity would be better then a repeat of playing on our own campus - that was a let-down even for us. Anything with a big 10 opponant would be fine since they all suck.

All i ask is that we consider burning a red shirt and seeing who else can help us - maybe just in certain situations where a little mobility would help.

I don't think Cole knows that some on Ponyfans want the team to stay in Dallas. I just think he was speaking what he felt. I have no problem with what he said.
