SMU got a mention in their annual 'things we're thankful for' list:

What's unique is that it was done in spite of the DMN's lack of coverage.

Pretty nice gesture, methinks. Surprised they have noticed.

DMN coverage much better past two years. Not even close.
Plus their ed board was gung ho over us getting BCS access.
No complaints from me.

I wish they had a ticker to see how many views that actually gotten. It would of been nice if it was on a nice page in the newspaper. I feel if it was just online only it wouldnt help a bit. I feel the only thing DMN gives us is Kate. Which its fine, but Im just tired of seeing Big 12 schools.

Way to go negative there, brother....
If we are going to go negative... why not talk about how we screwed the season, here. My goodness, we had a chance for real media coverage. Sigh.

Mo' winning = mo' coverage.
DMN has done a nice job this year. Wish we could have given them more to work with.
