I embraced that freaking cold front that blew through in the middle of the first quarter. I also embraced the courage to stay until the end.
I also embraced some pretty decent food at that Mexican joint next to Culwell & Sons after the game.

Yes. I forgot the name. I had not been on Hillcrest in some time and didn't even know it was over there. Went there after the game and had a burrito bowl. Wasn't bad. I'd go back.

The only mexican food worth eating near campus is Banditos.
Trey was using the powers of Gamehendge to allow the show to continue, to give the band the strength it needed to help break through this barrier

Not a fan of glorias. Or christinas or marias for that matter.

7-5 in C-USA this year is a respectable record and will get us to a third consecutive bowl (has that ever happened before?). With the departure of UH and ECU, we are looking at being top dogs in C-USA for the foreseeable future. Embrace it!

BTW, the only other time in SMU history that swe went to three consecutive bowl games was 1982-84. Great things happening with SMU in C-USA.

One could argue that we were playing considerable better competition back then..........and half the Division 1 schools did not get to go to a bowl game.

Yes, but that argument really doesn't wash since TV has really played a major role in the proliferation of bowls where about 2/3s of the teams playing in them shouldn't.

One could argue many things in many ways. In this instance I am just stating fact.

The result of indifference is inevitably the status quo, so that is a vote for good old C-USA. Thanks general.
