It is a homer article.... what do you expect? He throws down a bunch of stats in there, but none of them support picking an advantage one way or the other. Our teams performed almost identically last week, if you consider the difference between Tech and UT. The only statistical advantage I can see in their favor is that they had a better season last year than we did. I think SMU has a little more at stake in this game than he would like to admit, but not as much as we do. If we win, I'll be happy, but it won't be like winning the Rose Bowl as he seems to think. Losing this game is unacceptable, however. If we lose, this season is a failure. Too much is riding on it in terms of local perception. A few other comments: Unless there's something wrong w/ Jamario that we don't know about, SMU will NOT contain him. That's just crazy talk. It will not take "a weird play or two" for NT to win. This is a close matchup that could go either way. I'd call the fact that they have a real starter at QB an advantage for them. If Woody takes the first snap and doesn't get pulled, that advantage is negated.
