They're winning.
Wish it was us that was winning.

Benefitting from an usually weak ACC this season. Timing is everything.

They're a good team. I wonder how things would have gone if we'd hired Lashlee and paid him half what Sonny is making.

Lashlee will be at Arkansas or Auburn next year.

 

[HornyWartyToad]

Is it because they are fueled by rage at us for stealing their coach?

 

[NORMLFROG]

I don’t like them but they ARE taking care of business. I have to respect them.

Only loss is to undefeated BYU by 3 points.

SMU is making the most out of their ACC invite. Good for them.

Lashlee will be at Arkansas or Auburn next year.

Fingers crossed...

Not sure Arkie will want to hire from SMU again.

He went to Arkansas.

Was talking to a SMU guy I know he and said "you guys hired the wrong SMU coach".

They are a good team, and honestly, they should be in the top 10. they are doing it in all phases of the game.

It is possible. depends on who graduates from SMU this year. He also coached at Springdale HS up there. And for some crazy reason, that carries weight. He is a good coach. But Arkansas folks are still sold on Petrino like BU is Briles. No amount of embarrassment and scandal by them is too much.

Whereas we are mediocre in a weak Big 12, sadly.

Unfortunately, we had the same opportunity and blew it. SMU deserves some credit.

Saturday was impressive without two of their best receivers.

yup. the kinda got bit by the injury bug lately. hopefully they get em healed up and finish out. They don't really have any big tests on their schedule after Pitt, so they need to look really good in case they get to the conf title game and come up a little short.

It would have been Donati hiring him, so I doubt things would be much different.

SMU is benefitting from this being all fancy and new and exciting for them, so they are all pulling in the same direction. Contrast that with a good portion of our fanbase, and more importantly boosters, rather seeing us fail because Dykes made their guy look bad, and there is a big difference.
