Good for SMU! Three straight bowl games after 25 years of watching us lose by 40 points a game. We should all be grateful! June Jones has done a great job. If we had stayed healthy this year, it might of been a different story. And no matter how bad JJ McDermott plays, he is still worlds better than any QB we had prior to June Jones arriving.

Just for beating BCS Bowl bound TCU is enough reason!

Willis was better, at least he could move.

I like the bowl. I just hope it is not against FIU.

I want to finish this season with a win. Being embarrassed in a bowl game doesn't help the program.

FIU will get up to play us and it will be a de facto home game for them. How will losing to them help the program?


That's my point! If this team can't beat FIU what do u think would happen vs Ohio State, etc.? We at least have a chance to win this one.

So we're supposed to believe that JJ will turn down a trip to the Hawaii vs. Hawaii if they win against BYU tonight?

We are going to have to stop T. Y. Hilton which Louisville could not do.

And both have QB's unlike SMU. I was once a rah rah guy but at some point you have to be a little realistic. We aren't fielding the same team that beat TCU in ft worth(especially without Line) and JJ is not the same QB. This team really went flat and I don't see that magically changing over the next month(considering the injuries)
