I miss the SWC days.
ditto. and reading newspapers.
my dad got the morning news and the times herald at our house. and he brought home the wsj
And then he tells me not to believe what I read in the newspapers. but there was a method to the madness.
The coverage of SWC football was awesome. Texas produced great writers. SWC had legendary characters to write about.
SWC was dogbleep back in my day.
Arkansas
Baylor
Houston
Rice
SMU
TCU
Tech
Texas
This was our schedule... year after year.
Rice shouldn't even have a D1 football program. It's just silly.
3 private religious schools. Shoot, all the private religious schools should be in their own freaking conference.
Houston couldn't fill their stadium... unless A&M or Texas came in and picked up the slack.
Tech and Arkansas prided themselves on abusing visitors.
Why folks have any desire to return to that abomination is beyond me.
I bleed Maroon and I wipe burnt orange!
