Time to become Houston Cougar Fans

Post by PonyTime »

If UH and SMU both win their next three - they will be playing with BCS on line in Houston the day after Thanksgiving.

Actually more likely that we will win the next three than UH running through theirs (@Lou, @UCF, CIN).

The key in all of this is UH knocking off Louisville in KY and giving them a second loss. Since we don't play them, they need that second loss and UH may be the only team that has a chance to do that.

If we beat CIN and that UH knocks off Lou, we control our own destiny when it comes to BCS.

I can agree with that.
BRING BACK THE GLORY DAYS OF SMU FOOTBALL!!!

For some strange reason, one of the few universities that REFUSE to use their school colors: Harvard Crimson & Yale Blue.

The national media would [deleted] a brick if we made a BCS game. It would be hilarious

Maybe we would get to play Baylor after all.

Really burns me up that we lost that Rutgers game. We'd really be in the drivers' seat now if not for that

That 29 yard TD pass on 3rd and 24 in OT hurts more and more every day. Inexcusable.

Even if we beat UCF, chances are they would still be higher in the BCS rankings, unless the head to head win would make that irrelevant. I don't really know.

I think we should worry about Cincy right now. They're a good team.

Imagine how bitter Baylor would be if they went undefeated and then had to play SMU in the BCS bowl game.

National media? Heck, this board would explode! The combination of joy, disbelief and incorrect assumptions would send many over the edge.

You guys do realize we'd still have to pay UCF and win, right?

I would be advocating for a lifetime extension for June. I would personally donate a new overhead projector to the athletic department
