Honestly respect launching a Heisman campaign when you didn’t finish last season anywhere near the discussion

Wait for the “CJ Carr, King of Ann Arbor” campaign

I appreciate it because before this I couldn't tell you the name of one kid on their roster.

And a year from now when he's pumping gas and selling energy drinks at Citgo, you still won't be able to.

$50+tax for potentially the second most competitive game on our schedule? With a trip to the playoffs potentially in play? Who cares about November weather, you have to lock this in.

Fortunately for us, he'll be throwing into the Hornets Nest of swarming defensive backfields.

Maybe he'll be so overconfident he decides to test Leonard Moore.

Maurice Crum Jr. is co-DC and calls the plays on defense. 4th year with the Ponies.

Loved him as a ND player- very cool to see him rising through the ranks.

Went to the game last night. Live it felt SMU could get 10 yards any time they wanted against FSU but just shot themselves in the foot over and over for this to not be a 30 point game.

Tickets for this game are dirt cheap considering it *could* be a top 5 matchup and a night game.

yeah, it's going to be a legit matchup when it comes around.

I hope that SMU comes in with 0-1 losses. Their schedule allows that. Not too daunting.

Big game against Louisville this weekend

 

[ulukinatme]

Yeah, looking at SMU's schedule there's a very good possibility they are either 8-2 or possibly 10-0 when they face us...but yeah, possible Top 5 matchup and we don't play anybody SMU is heavy favorites in most of their games leading up to us except Louisville where the Cardinals are slightly favored, and VT/Virginia where SMU is moderately favored.
