I have a feeling this one is going to get ugly.

[qng001]

Gru and Cameron went to high school, college, and now work at SMU together.

SMU internet fan snobbery.

"Scary backwoods trap game, with Uncle Billy Joe officiating. This will be their biggest home game of the season. They ran SMU out of the stadium, in the Frisco Bowl and Skip Holtz is still the head coach. Forecast of thunderstorms and high humidity. SMU 15 point favorite.....what do ya think?"

[Champ967]

They think we have homer refs?!

lolz.

With our luck, the white hat will be Sonny’s nephew or something.

Why is it that every team we ever play is always our biggest game ever? Like, our players have dreamed their whole lives about beating that team? It's always great to have the chance to beat P5 schools, sure. And you're always going to want to beat localish teams, or conference rivals, or teams you haven't played in a long time, or teams you play often, or teams you beat the last time, or teams you lost to last time, or whatever.

But every single team we ever play seems to think they're the only team we think about. Our "super bowl." Every. Single. Team.

I guess it's true that there are degrees to this kind of thing, but I'm always skeptical of the X team's going to be "up" for Y game concept. Maybe that's a real thing, but if so it can't be true every week.

We've certainly been guilty of the same statement though.

I never seen folks here make a statement like that against other G5'ers except maybe when we talk about the UL twins.

ULX was what came to mind

Not to imply we are guilty to the same degree, certainly.
