I don't believe that has been decided as of yet. I hear SMU is most likely, though.

I'd rather TCU, but I'm glad it's not Rice. At least it's an up-and-coming team.

We are still working with ESPN to fill the 12th slot. It may be a Thursday night game, likely away.

I have heard Texas A&M, UNC and Oklahoma, among many others, as potential teams for that game.
You've just got to learn from the wrong things you've done. I came off the rebound, started looking around, figured out it's time to have a little fun.

i find it hard to believe A&M would add us with Arkansas already on their schedule for multiple years


I'd like to see UNC

Ha! Beat me to it. Honestly, are you that scared of Oklahoma? Bring it, Big XII.

I get your trepidation, but you know a top ten preseason ranking and a 9-4 season don't make a top ten program.

I believe Ric Flair said it best " To be the Man you have to beat the Man", so if Florida, OU, and USC are the three best programs in the nation we have to play them eventually in order to prove that we belong.

Besides what difference does it make if we beat OU in the regular season or in a bowl. I am all for playing the OOC schedule we can.

I think OU makes a lot of sense. OU per its schedule needs 1 more game as do the rebels and both are open that day. Would love for it to be in Oxford so I could see that in person! Probably could get gameday here for that one!

Look here's my point: Next year we're primed to take it to the house. One loss along the way could end that and you know it. If we're going to lose one I want it to be for the crystal football not on Oct. 3rd. Mentioning USC that should have been obvious.
