I dont ask questions I dont want to know the answers too.

I was close to the SMU bench. The kicker would come over every few minutes, whack Hicks in the balls, and out would come Hicks' head.

Kinky stuff.

In any event, Houston was terribad for a while (like they were against Rice) and then they tried to do their usual 4th quarter murdering, but SMU was good enough to hold on. On my way to La Mad before the heavens opened I chuckled at the P6 flag Houston had on the sidelines directly under the Navy flag. Best joke of the weekend.

I'll stick around until UNT beats us. Our worst team in years dropped 44 on yall back in 2012. Dont forget that.

And not a single player from either team was out of high school at the time....many not even IN high school.  

A team that we curb stomped ran through your defense like a bunch of drunken bridesmaids...and it happened THIS WEEK.

We also put up 46 on SMU, who put 45 on your team. Get out of 2012 and join us in '18. UNT is better this year than you all.

You don't have to be a UNT fan to understand that barring a game-by-game proxy breakdown of the UNT, UH, and SMU schedules, a UNT vs UH matchup is likely a UNT win. 

I'll take data that's a few weeks old with current players over data that's 6 years old with an old coach, old players, and hell, even an old AD.

Y'all,
If you think the SMU team that lined up against Houston this weekend is the same one we whipped a few months ago, you've drunk too much green kool-aid.
It was a great win for SMU, and a clear sign Dykes is turning it around rather quickly down on the Hilltop.

Looking forward to next season's game at Ford.

And Houston needs to watch for the freefall when Oliver graduates.  Lucky for them, they have D'Eriq King returning.

Both Sonny Dykes and Dana Dimel deserve a lot of credit for being able to turn things around during the season.

Oh!   That would likely explain why Ben Hicks was effective against yall.   He really sucks.   
If Oliver were to have been chasing him around, that game likely ends much differently.

I dont know about that.  We hate our DC mostly because he puts DBs 10 yards off the line as WRs run 5 yard routes.  

But it would likely have helped stop the SMU run game

I feel for you.  You just described UNT defenses from 2006-2015... as you likely recall when Keenum was shredding us with ease.

I watch all three metroplex teams every week,  but, I've cheered harder for NT this year, because of their special season. I will have to agree with Mean Green Texan. This is a very different SMU team, than the one we beat on the first game of the season. 

Good.  I hope they win out and strengthens our season even more.

      G5s Finally Getting Together......Talking About Their Future

      The Boston College/SMU's of the world will still be in the mix through access to the playoff. Obviously, there is going to be a Power 2 but what's going to eventually happen is the Big 10 and SEC will shuffle off some of their lesser performing "assets" down to the ACC and Big 12 while FSU, Clemson, Kansas, and potentially UNC move up. Rutgers, Vandy, NW, and a few others will head down. The G5 will have their own division and won't be given access to the playoff, therefore necessitating they create their own.

      G5s Finally Getting Together......Talking About Their Future

      But I don't see this a move down....more of a "not moving up" For this to take shape, you have to assume that the "highest official classification" is going to change. It's gonna be 30-40 teams. This isn't like going FCS in the '80s. It's not even close....the entire landscape has changed. NIL, transfer portal, ESPN, media.....nothing today resembles 1988. The "highest official classification" is just a label. It's unofficially the SEC/Big 10 now...even the Big 12 is not stable...P5 is going to P2. We have to stop thinking that because an Oregon State has "always been a Power conference school" that they will continue to be one. Boston College? SMU? LOL. The math has changed. Alabama, Ohio State and Texas are so far removed from the lower P5s and G5s that snow ball is moving at warp speed down the mountain. Them along with ESPN run college football now and what they want, they will get. I don't think Ohio State really cares about Washington St.... We (current G5 plus the P5 "hanger ons") aren't going to be able to keep up with this new world... I think this proposal is a new classification...not moving down to an existing one. Just my humble opinion....

      Judge orders Florida State, ACC to mediation to settle suit

      Sigh. I don't want you to take this the wrong way but this might be most ill-informed and ignorant take on the current ACC situation I've seen yet. And that's saying something. FACTS: You need a majority of schools to vote to dissolve the conference. Well, you just added three sure-fire "NO" votes in CAL, SMU, and Stanford. Now tell me. Where are you going to find the other votes needed to dissolve the conference? Duke? Nope. WF? Nope. Miami? Nope. PITT? Nope. Louisville? Nope. Georgia Tech? Nope. Syracuse? Nope. Boston College? Nope. Notre Dame? Nope. Virginia Tech? Nope. I realize you hate SMU and that the G5 split that's coming sucks but c'mon man.
