It wasn't even that great of a win either. Texas scored zero points in the second half.

Oklahoma could win the ACC.

Should we compare Oklahoma to SMU?

Let's start with wins against top25 teams.

Playoffs are there to determine who is and isn't a fraud.

I hope SMU beats the shite out of Clemson and whoever they play in the playoffs.

Just load up on weak Big 12, ACC and G5 teams, skip the conference championship game and get 6 or 7 teams in the playoff


Agree. ABC would have to pony up a massive amount of money for a 9 game SEC schedule. There would be lots of playoff contenders with 8-4 records.

It still may be possible to call Yormak about coming back to the Big 12?

I agree that SMU is somewhat overrated. However, after their loss to BYU, they made a switch at quarterback and the defense is reportedly pretty good. To me, SMU is more compelling to watch than seeing Texas or Tennessee falter in the playoffs.

Well shame on the SEC for putting all the best teams in one conference and then wanting to go national in the post-season.

Frauds are bad. Either stick to your team or don’t post in the rant.
As a Vol we have many so called fans that are just alters.

SMU could beat most of the SEC teams not named UT, Tenn, Georgia on any given Saturday.

You middling teams are highly overestimating your prowess and/or underestimating SMU.

Not trying to be mean here, Curly. But if you lose this weekend you will have beaten the same amount of ranked teams that SMU will have beaten if they lose. Facts.

SMU may be the most dangerous team in the country right now. I wouldn't want to play'em and I'm gonna love watching them eat taters this weekend.

SMU will get destroyed at the line of scrimmage against decent competition.

They lost against #17 BYU and now they play #18 Clemson. I expect Clemson to win.

Talking shite to SMU in 2024 is a sign of pure unadulterated weakness.

I don't think any of their performances (including barely beating Duke) are as bad as losing to OU 24-3, or losing to Vandy by any score. Alabama does have more impressive wins than SMU, but they also have far worse losses.

SMU isn’t a fraud . They should win this weekend even with Clemson basically having a home game . They’d beat Miami , Boise state, Arizona st and notre dame without a doubt .
