Clearly hyperbole. SMU has been reporting 34,000+ attendance for a handful of games (106% of their 32,000 capacity). UH attendance for Baylor was 34,000+. SMU is clearly not over 100% capacity today
Second, we’re not a Top 10 team, we’re a 4-win team with the worst offense in the country.
Of course I’d rather be a Top 10 team than where we are right now.
Yet sMU will be playing for a conference championship and probably be in the cfp. Butts in seats mean very little. Also, they are playing the super high travel cal Berkeley.
That’d be a helluva hire for them & the Big 12. I don’t want it to happen tho…I want to beat them for once, even tho I believe CWF had their number when he was at Tulane.
They really took advantage of this ACC situation, and they are likely to be headed straight for the CFP given Miami lost to Syracuse.
SMU is a true southern school with deep pockets. I wouldn’t be surprised if they find their way into the SEC if they keep up their dominance, which… they very well could with all that oil money.
