SMU's Unparalleled Success in Jumping to the ACC


Recommended Posts

If I could, I would certainly have to give this thread a "vomiting" vote:

The Mustangs are undefeated in the ACC, and with unbeaten Pitt (7-0, 3-0) coming to Dallas on Saturday, arguably the biggest game in school history has set the stage for the Mustangs' coronation.

"It's not over, so we're not celebrating anything yet, but it's validating," SMU athletic director Rick Hart told CBS Sports. "Maybe vindicating is another word, because we have believed for some time that if given the opportunity we could compete at this level."

SMU hasn't just risen from the ashes -- the Mustangs are galloping across the nation. No school transitioning from a Group of Five conference to a power conference has ever started better than 1-1 in their new league. SMU is 4-0 and in the thick of the ACC championship race.

"Maybe vindicating is another word, because we have believed for some time that if given the opportunity to legally pay for play we could compete at this level."

well, yeah.  duh.


Thought: how funny would it be if Rice decided to finally commit to this game and easily match SMU"s pockets two or three times over?

Even with all that success, there's still plenty of tickets available for the game Saturday.

I don't think Dallas is buying what they are selling.  Plus, the game is only on the ACC Network (limited viewers).
