Now we just need to turn the offense on overdrive.
Let's blow them out like we did Nevada in 2009.

Congrats to the SMU D for a fantastic 1st half!

It's kind of ironic how Pitt is leaving for ACC. The ACC blows in Football.
And SMU is coming into Big East with Houston.

Can't wait to see how we play against more BCS opponents.

Go Ponies! Beat Pitt!

Well, Todd Dodge's game plan is definitely different than what Todd Graham was doing. I am surprised they are not trying to run the ball down SMU's throat. Pitt looks rusty and we look pretty sharp. I that's the advantage of having a full coaching staff.

This but I believe our best strategy is to have some momentum on offense again. They can't score if we have the ball.

Thanks frog hows your recruiting going heard you made some nice pick ups this year



they say 5 4-stars, but I trust GP recruiting regardless. We will need all the help we can get in the Big 12. A win here for you guys goes a long way towards erasing the coaching snafu late last year- hope the second half is more of the same.

I, too, hope they keep playing in the second half. Have looked pretty good so far.

Seriously. This is ad nauseam. The halftime report was about everything but the game.
