I still think it's unrealistic to think we won't win any OOC games. In fact, I don't think it's outlandish to think we will win all four.

Tech - First game of the season, new coaching staff, plus Tech isn't that good anyway. This is definitely our best chance at an OOC win and with the game at Ford I think it is likely.

Baylor - Yes, they obviously showed last season they have a good size and speed advantage on us, but they will be on their third QB in three seasons, our team knows what to expect and will be able to scheme for the speed better (Mason), and with the game at Ford we have a shot.

A&M - This year was a flash in the pan year for them, and next year should be the year to get them becasue they will certainly be cocky. Obviously, winning at Kyle Field is a tall order, but don't forget we had them 0-0 well into the second quarter this year and that was before our offense turned into the dominant offense we saw later in the season. This is the kind of win that would put SMU on the map!

TCU - this one is always close. We won over there two years ago and had every chance in the world to beat them this year. It's also not unrealistic to expect the possiblity of some unrest in their team next season with the QB issues.

I think 1-3 is the most likely outcome (win over Tech), but 2-2 is very possible with TCU being a toss up and it's not ridiculous to consider SMU going 4-0 if things go our way.

This is the most simultaneously hilarious/sad post I've ever read on ponyfans

They had a poor recruiting class. They will be picked to finish dead last in the Big 12. If you don't beat Tech next year, you may never.

yep; and we were excited last year because we were catching A$M with a new coaching staff, new schemes and a FR QB

I had the one that came out when Boise State & San Diego State were assumed to be in the
conference but have not seen a revised schedule. I also still have the 4 Big Twelve games

Lets try to play a non-humiliating game against a&m, Baylor or tech and then maybe we can talk about somehow beating ONE of them.
