the way i see it is that ru has to lose one more. we have to win out and loserville would be tied with smu if they win out. if we win out who gets the tie-breaker with loserville?
it's in our sights men. wee can do tihis.

Shockingly enough, if we win out I think we would get the tie break over Loserville since we would have beaten UCF who beat them. Strange times we are living in, but if RU drops another one this actually could happen.

The college football world would blow up if we made it. It would be a top 5 day in my life if we somehow made the Orange Bowl. EVERYONE on PF would have to attend. No excuses.

In a Tie, they take the team with the highest BCS ranking. We have ZERO chance.

seems to me that loserville and ru have to lose one more game and we have to win out. loserville still plays uofh so it's not impossible to make it. i'm not saying we are a lock. i am saying we have a chance. the 2 best teams we have to play are uofh and ucf.
anything can happen.
first must beat temple who is dog awful despite their win over army.

I think Duke is right. Lets just say we won out, RU drops a game and Louisville goes over us due to being more highly ranked. Any thoughts on how many posts on Ponyfans would be dissecting our over-time periods vs Rutgers?

It's not impossible but it definitely is a very very steep uphill battle for SMU.

Ain't gonna happen. Best we can hope for is a bowl. ANY bowl at this point.

Truth. We need a bowl game, even if it's 6-6 and that's kind of BS. Having 2-3 extra weeks of practice would be big for the returning players in 2014 and it keeps the momentum going. Hopefully the bowl game can be JJ's "swan song" and he'll ride off into the sunset after another triumph in Hawaii or Birmingham.
