I couldn't tell if that was a practice or game by looking at the stands.

[greenit]

So, now they are copying our helmets too?

 

 

...and was that Emmitt in one of those pics?

[Andrew]

Yet Vito wasn't allowed to ours today...

They still looks like losers.  But I do like their stadium.

Meh. I do like the bleachers. 

[UNT 90 Grad]

Meh. I do like the bleachers. 

I agree.  Having the backs on the bleachers is a nice touch.

Lumbar support

[UNT 90 Grad]

Lumbar support

I like the idea of lumbar support on Saturdays and Dunbar support on Sundays.

I heard the bleachers had collapsed once during an SMU game. Fortunately no one was hurt when they found out there weren't in fact, any fans.

Honestly, who cares?

I'm interested for nothing other than they are our next opponent.

Legit story or an invented one for jokes? I'm fine with either just curious if they actually collapsed. The SMU Band legit broke some stands doing the 4th quarter tradition called Beans. I believe they were the stands at Rice but I could be wrong.

Was it the same mug that everyone on the planet knows about?  You know, the one with the black handle, and is the reason my fraternity brothers from other states now remember what school I went to?  Because if that's the one...I just ordered it on ebay.  Nothing to really worry about if someone from SMU notices the same thing that the rest of the world has seen

I've always wondered why no one has thought of putting the school name or player's name some car dealer's logo on the part of the shoulder pad that hangs down and reads "DOUGLAS."  I see DOUGLAS in almost every other photo.  Frequently, the RIDDELL logo is replaced with the school name or mascot. 

 

That's what I found interesting about this series of photos.  I couldn't care less about Southern Meth.

Congrats on using Couldn't Care Less correctly. Don't see that too often on the internet.

I thought SMU looked athletic, lean, good fundamentals and an intense coaching staff. Anyone on this board putting this game as an easy "W" is going to be rudely awakened come game time!!

You got all that from still photos?

My thoughts exactly.  To me, they look like they suck

Not just from still photos, but from intense Dallas media coverage and comments of new coach who is absolutely dominating Texas HS recruiting. " To beat us you'll have to kill us". Preston Line will follow in his brother's footsteps. The A$M transfer QB far outshines any we can put on the field. They are pissed off about last year and sandwiched between BU and TCU, this is a MUST win game for SMU! The old adage that a team improves most from its first game to its second will come into play here. BU will be a strong home test for them, while we will have no idea of what we can do having only played" Open Date University". Maybe we learn enough from this non-rivalry game according to Mac that we play better against Rice, but I feel putting SMU in the automatic "W" column is a very dangerous assumption. We have not won in their on campus stadium anytime in the modern era. If we don' t come to play our best game, and Mac continues to say this is a " non-rivalry" game, we are in big trouble.

Maybe you should watch the periscope videos when they come out. You can see the SMU helmet being used for motivation in certain drills. I believe Mac has changed his tune about SMU.

They still suck.  My only prediction for them is that prostitutes will die and they will end up on probation as some point in the near future.
