NT vs SMU is going to be the only intra Metroplex game soon!

[VideoEagle]

Our current annual games against SMU will soon be the only game between DFW area schools. TCU is going to "indefinitely pause" its series with SMU.

Of course, once SMU gets buys their invite to the ACC, who knows!

Well they don’t have a series with us anymore since we conference mates (at least for now)

Well, aren't they Dallas' team, that is the Dallas paper.

I actually imagine we’ll see a lot of these OOC-but-long standing rivalry cessation announcements coming as the realignment landscape continues to erupt.

Yep...games like Georgia vs Georgia Tech, Florida vs Florida State, Iowa vs Iowa State, and Clemson vs South Carolina will probably start being cancelled as the number of conference games increases.

Why I dont like SMU.  One the billboards they place in Denton and the precious visitors to our forum. Two, I was at the SMU game here at DATCU  stadium.   This SMU guy bought a seat on the home side 40 yard line right in front of me.  They were throwing out t-shirts and he made an effort to catch one.   He caught it and instead of giving to one the kids sitting in the area he decides he will throw back on the field.  Who does that?

smu d-bags. Don’t act shocked.

Pretty hilarious that TCU is doing this to them. Why should TCU fill SMU’s stadium?

TCU really has nothing to gain by beating SMU anymore and TCU doesn’t need SMU to fill TCU stadium.

I had this girl “indefinitely pause” her relationship with me.  I never saw her again.

Who do we need, to fill our stadium?

[untphd]

We just need about 25 percent of the student  pop and we would have an amazing crowd.

We need someone to whisper this in Morris’ ear.

Dollar to a doughnut that Stanford loves SMU (money), thus the Pac? will gladly take them.
