Did You Know That Smu/tcu Has A Corporate Sponsor?

[emmitt01]

Apparently it's called the "DFW Duel" and it's sponsored by State Farm.

Someone actually put their corporate name on SMU's annual butt kicking.

We need a 3-way rivalry between the DFW teams. We can sign a contract that guarantees each team a home game against one of the other opponents each year. Make a trophy for the winner of the series. Get a TV deal to show the games locally. Surely at least one of the local stations could see the benefit of televising local football rivalries over an OxyClean infomercial on Saturday afternoons.

I don't know...Oxy Clean is pretty magical.

I am on board with that. This will give us two additional home games, we need at least four more.

Remind me who would watch a local rivalry live on tv?...

[MeanGreen61]

I'm definately for an annual game with TCU.

[dodgefan]

Do you think TCU would have any interest?

Unfortunately... it's not that simple.

Can OxyClean somehow join in and make it a four way rivalry

The SMU/TCU rivalry makes more sense if you wanna have a trophy. If you ask me I think a trophy is pretty lame. My thing is to just have an agreement where NT is playing SMU and TCU on a regular basis. I am not saying every single year but maybe NT can alternate with SMU and TCU every year instead of playing both every year. I think baby steps need to be taken in order for TCU and SMU to get fully on board with playing NT.
