2005 against TCU, but SMU did win their home openers in 2010 and 2011 against conference teams

going 3-3 with that home schedule would be an accomplishment. anything better than that means many of us (including the coaching staff?) really underestimated the talent we had sitting on the bench last year

Not differentiating between OOC and Conference, but we will go 4-2 at home this season.

Baylor was beatable last year and they blew us out. They had no defense except against us. A&M is going to be better. No clue what Tech will look like. TCU will be better as well. We are losing a lot of starters on defense. We are losing Line and DJ3 on offense. So, what makes you think that we can beat these teams this year? GG will have another year under his belt as starter, and he looked good against Fresno, but who will he be throwing to? Mason will have his hands full this year rebuilding the defense. Its going to be a tough year.
UNC better keep that Ram away from Peruna

We will lose all 4 games, with a total point differential of 100+.

Mark it.

I'm not so sure about your ability to prognosticate. Here are a couple of nuggets you threw down in October:
UH gonna destroy us. No doubt about it
We of course beat Houston seven ways to Sunday in one of SMU's most dominant wins ever
I think we may check out and go winless for the rest of the season
We went four of six and then destroyed Fresno State in the Hawaii Bowl
