Re: We got a Shout-Out from SI's Stew Mandell
Nice. We all wanted a better record, but beating Tulsa is always a good thing, and this year's Tulsa team is pretty good. Glad to see the Ponies get some good pub.

Depends on your viewpoint...
On Saturday night, the Trojans had three straight attempts from the Irish one-yard line in the final minutes. They could not get into the end zone.
I'm trying to delete this whole season from memory!

What a weird season... beat Houston and Tulsa, lose to Tulane and Rice. It feels like we're in the twilight zone!

Pat Forde mentioned SMU as well:
Psycho Team of the Year: SMU (27). Nobody went from horrible to great in a week's time like the Mustangs. After losing to lousy, winless Tulane, they hung 72 points on Houston five days later. After losing by 22 points to Rice, they stunned Tulsa the following week to earn bowl eligibility.

Sounds like a well-coached team.
