SMU has played in more Rose Bowl games than Rutgers and Maryland and the same amount as Indiana (1). Also, more than Arizona and Colorado in the PAC. They're practically a Big 10 team and should be invited.

Put TCU and SMU in the Big 10 and there will be no attendance problems in Dallas/Ft. Worth in a metro area with 7mil.

Put Akron in the B10 and I bet they'd have great attendance too. Lol

If that's the criteria, were IN! Tulane played in a Rose Bowl.

"Put Akron in the B10 and I bet they'd have great attendance too. Lol" Exactly my point!

You guys can make fun of SMU to the B1G if you want, but I think SMU to the current Pac 12 (minus USC/UCLA) is a good possibility.

Thx. We will continue to make fun of the SMU to B10 talk.

Exactly as planned! Muahaha, though I think we can do better and just go straight NFL.

Dallas, academics and willingness to spend big on program

I don't think so.

As has Navy.

B1G wants to know about SMU's research activity.

If there is no TCU?

I agree. SMU (Dallas) and Houston could be important to PAC 12 schools looking to replace southern California recruiting.

Don’t hate bc we great

SMU is a tier 2 in research dollars.

Legit Sources: Big 10 has it's eyes on Notre Dame and Notre Dame only.

American Board: Na SMU is in baby! We are ahead of Oregon, Washington, Stanford, Cal, North Carolina, Virginia, Florida St., Georgia Tech. We did it!!!

Joke

Rumors have it that the AFC West is looking to add UCF, but we’re holding out for an offer from the English Premier League.

UCF in the premier league would be awesome. direct flights across the pond from orlando or sanford. we'd get our teeth kicked in with men's and women's soccer, but every other sport we'd dominate.

I wish there would be some actual news rather than all the on line writers' opinion pieces being peddled as news.
