SMU boosters pumping money

for the first couple of years to not be a flop in the big leagues. Good for them to buy their way in, but it won't last. They are just a speck in the Dallas market, limited alumni, low football attendance, but decent in the AAC. The ACC is going to chew them up. Not sure why the media is projecting them as a fringe Top 25 team. Houston, UCF, and Cincy used to beat up on SMU and those 3 got smacked around once they got a promotion.

Yep. Surviving only on donations is not sustainable at all.

Maybe not this year but they will be a player in time **

Being Power 4 now gives SMU a big boost in terms of playoff opportunities

Must not forget recruiting. It's tough to recruit as a G5. **

Find out why you guys didn't take them
VaTechHokiesACC • 08/06/24 11:13 PM ET
SMU has never been an issue. Even when on equal footing.

B12 also had three teams in Texas (+ one in DFW) and were adding a fourth.

The Big 12 didn't take SMU-

It came down to TCU or SMU. TCU had the football
Big12 guy • 08/07/24 07:10 AM ET
Betting line has SMU (and VT) at 5.5 CONFERENCE wins
