Year end ranking

[SMUfiji43]

Yahoo's Mike Huguenin did an end of the year ranking of the top 120 teams in FBS. SMU was 45

"45. SMU (8-5)
The buzz: Despite a bowl win, just the second for the Mustangs since 1984, the season was a mild disappointment. The offense wasn’t as potent as expected, and that has to bother coach June Jones."

not too shabby

[SMUer]

Top 50 in everything we do!

Sounds exactly right.

JP will solve the SMU offensive problem.

Disappointing second half to the season. After the UCF game, I think we were ranked right around top 30.

Top 30 in everything we do!

We should set a target for this to be true within 5 years.

The real disappointment is we lost to teams ahead of us except for Navy. Beat Navy (at home) and the season appear right. 9-4 and losing to two top 25 teams (while beating one) would go a long way towards respectability.

But man, have we come a long way from the 99, 117, 85 type rankings.

sure beats looking at the ESPN bottom 10 every tuesday to see how bad it was.

UCLA #65....love it.

[Mustangs_Maroons]

UCLA #65....love it.

Nice. We should show this to those that decommitted.

[jtoutloud]

Good to be in the top 50

[SMUfiji43]

UCLA #65....love it.

At no point in the next 5 years(and beyond) will UCLA be better than SMU.

Mark my words.

When the year started i thought we would end up around #30 so this isnt to bad.We have to keep this 4 year upward trend going soon top or nothing else will do.
GO PONIES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Exactly. Mora wont even be there when the Klemm followers are seniors. Klemm wont either.

An improvement for sure.... last year we were #65.
