Everyone show up Saturday

Post by RGV Pony »

Well, here's a post from killerfrogs.com:

And don't forget to call or go by the ticket office to get your SMU tics. There is no excuse for us not to take 20K+ to ACS East and make this our home opener! (Already have my six tickets, thanks, and may buy some more


I'm just as p*ssed as everyone else after last Saturday. But I really, really don't want to see 5k Ponyfans there and 20k froggies there.

I'm thinking that the Frogs can pull atleast 15k if not more.

My prediction:
TCU: 54
SMU: 17

Go Frogs!

TCU beat an OU team that is definitely going to have a down year--possibly even a losing record. They are missing 15 starters from last season. Many on their 2 deep roster are freshmen. That said TCU soundly beat OU. It was not a fluke. OU looked like SMU playing TCU. They didin't seem to have a clue. They repeatedly tried to beat TCU by running the ball. Granted they have Peterson but the way to beat TCU is through the air. Also the play of the OU QBs was abysmal. Neither could do anything. Bomar the very highly recruited redshirt freshman may develop but he is a long way from being a good d-1 QB. Bottom line: TCU beat OU but OU aint much this year. We are much worse than OU. OU would run all over us.

Don't be so sure-I agree they looked completely lost out there but they also have just as much young inexperienced talent as anyone in the country plus Adrian Peterson. They will struggle until some of these players get experience but they wont be down long. Bomar will likely be the starter and once he gets it going they will be back.

A team we once beat 15 times in a row is now calling our stadium their other stadium. I have two questions...

1)Can a student sue the NCAA for ruining their college football experience (no other school's football program has been destroyed by them...they gave us no possibility of recovery...everyone on this board knows that...any outsider can say that we should quit whining, but it hasn't happened to any other school)?
and
2)We have a lot of good lawyers. Could we get away with putting 20k people wearing purple in the Dallas hospitals on Saturday (i don't mean boarding them their either...that's what the jails are for)?

Gee, that's not breaking the ToS, is it?

Stallion- I agree. Although OU is going to have a down year, they'll still win 7-8 games this season and stay in the Top 25.

Nonetheless, have a great game this saturday.
Go Frogs!
