Want me to list the reasons why SMU is a better get? And remember they're not going to get an invite due to no baseball.

1. Better academics
2. More money
3. Better facilities
4. More political clout
5. Better support system and Olympic Sports

Coog High building a new stadium is nice but the rest of the facilities are garbage. They have horrid academics. They are step brother and don't get along with Texas or Tech.

I guess you missed the big stink couple years ago when Coog High tried to pull a fast one and Texas refuses to play them anymore.

Ah, yes, just what the Big 12 needs: another private school in North Texas with a student body of about 10,000. SMU doesn't bring much potential fan-wise. UofH has 40,000+ students and obviously tons of alumni in Houston who would fill that 40,000-seat stadium regularly in a decent conference.

SMU having money means nothing when 1) they hire guys like June Jones and 2) they have a history of using in slush funds for football players.

As for UofH having "horrid" academics, you're showing your ignorance. It's not a great school, but it's essentially as good as Tech or Okie State. Great law school. Major research institution. Becoming more selective. My guess is your perception of UofH's academics is as outdated as your perception of SMU's football prowess.

And yes, Texas was mad about something that happened in a stadium that no longer exists.
