They have yet to try an extra point....... which brings up a question.....Why was one not attempted after the "Hail Mary" TD in the UNT game??

Part II: .... I enjoyed SMUt scoring a TD against TCU,.... celebrating... and then getting it called back ... that was mean .. love it. They also got a safety called back ... and ended the game with zero. ... hahahaha

[SCREAMING EAGLE-66]

..

So no one one since 1918 has done worse in point differential .... and their 1916 teams holds the record for all time....

They also hold the record for only team with a death penalty ... for cheating financially.

In NCAA, the try is not played on a touchdown that ends a game unless necessary to determine the winner.

Some HS districts do so because of point differentials used to determine playoff tiebreakers. In those cases, if the scored-upon team does not want to play the try, the scoring team is awarded two points.

SMU played a school that did this... AND LOST BY 56!!!

SMU lost to a school by 52, and that school's favorite play of the game came when a cadet stopped a player from almost getting in the vicinity of a dog!!!

SMU lost to a school by 37 points even though they had an offense that struggled to gain first downs against UT and La. Tech

SMU lost by 45 to a school who left a qb in the game with a broken back!

it's not looking pretty over near Mockingbird right now
