On the contrary, if a new one is started, the one that includes the TCU win will slide off the board but be easily accessible by Google search. If a new one isn't started, information regarding the TCU win will eventually only be accessible through Google if you search for something like "SMU beats Rice again"

Absolutely right.
This has been entertaining for the week off, but each game merits a thread of its own. Games are separate entities and should be treated as such.
Besides, wasn't it 94 who said this thread would carry through the bye week and then be replaced by an active thread? That's the way it should be.
