Who Wins: The Bye Week or BC? Plus What Went Wrong in Dallas v. No. 24 SMU
Yet again the Eagles have shot themselves in the foot as they fall to the now No. 24 SMU Mustangs in Dallas. Tune in as I break down exactly what happened, and why it is unacceptable for a Power 4 program to be operating this way.
