Keith Whitmire

Keith Whitmire is defending his alma mater.

I've been hearing a lot of pundits - both amateurs on local blogs and professional media - talk about SMU football as if every season is a 1-7 nightmare. They paint the picture that SMU has no hope of ever winning. It's simply not true.

SMU won six games last year. If they could have scored from first-and-goal at the Rice one yard line, they would have gone to a bowl game in 2006. As it was, 6-6 would have gotten SMU into a bowl if C-USA had one more bowl agreement last year.


A lot of this has to do with Ed Housewright's disparaging uniformed remarks on one of the pretentious DMN blogs.

Go get 'em, Keith.
