SMU and A&M.......
both have enough resources to get things done. The question is do they have enough brains? A&M and Texas have been building a pretty solid case for years that they lack the brains. SMU's case got cut short about 40 years ago because they were arrogant and got caught. We'll see if they learned anything.
