SMU should challenge for the Big East West Division title
We have out-recruited most of the schools in the division. Boise is struggling this year so we have a chance to knock everyone in the division off.

Depends on who is calling the plays.

We're an awful road team, that's going to kill us in trying to contend for a division title.

Those others teams are losing a lot. Boise is losing a lot of defense.

We're losing a lot too. Unless we start playing better on the road we won't contend for a division title in the BE.

I know BSU can get in players that we have a tough time getting but I think they will be down for a few more years. We should at least go to a bowl in a weakened Big East next year while challenging for the West Div title.

We already know nine of the games
Tech
TCU
Baylor
A&M
Boise
Coog High
Temple
Memphis
San Diego State
Don't see more than three wins out of that nine so whether we get to six really depends on our draw from the East.

Perhaps if our staff didn't automatically pencil in those games as losses...sbsmith wrote:We're an awful road team, that's going to kill us in trying to contend for a division title.

Re: SMU should challenge for the Big East West Division titl
losing seniors is always scary, staring into the unknown, especially because June doesnt play young players very much. I will say i had no idea how well Randall Joyner and Darrian Wright would play at times this year. Pretty comfortable with those guys.

We can beat any of them at Ford and lose to any of them on the road. So let's hope for 3 home games and 2 road games.

Re: SMU should challenge for the Big East West Division titl
could beat any of them at home? I see no wins from the 4 SWC schools. None.
We need to get out of the A&M game pronto or we will just lose players and fans for the year.

I meant any of the conference opponents.

Re: SMU should challenge for the Big East West Division titl
I can go with that. That would give us 5 wins with one more somewhere else to make a bowl game while being a force in the BE west.sbsmith wrote:SMU 86 wrote:sbsmith wrote:
