Likely UTSA. . . Ooof, that’s rough. And if we hadn’t had the armed forces bowl taken all predictions were SMU vs TCU.

The SMUers were real unhappy about going to the Frisco Bowl. The players probably ran out to the nearest shopping center and started licking the hand rails and door knobs--hence their sudden C-19 problem.

Absolutely. Warmer weather, a lot more fans, pro-AAC locals, and a larger payout ($824,545 in 2019).

That was a brutally cold game. I could tell from watching it on my TV, in 70* room temperature :-P :-P Another infamous 2nd half collapse.
