Demo previews SMU's AAC foe Houston in the latest Pony Stampede team preview.
This season, SMU will make a trip down I-45 to square off against the University of Houston Cougars. I shouldn’t have to tell you ow big of an interstate rivalry this is. Simply being a sports team from either city, a club is inherently disposed to dislike the other.
It makes for great games no matter what sport, no matter when they face each other on their schedules, or even how talented either team is.
Fortunately, this rivalry game is smack dab in the meaty portion of the schedule—early enough in conference play that either team can bounce back from a loss, but late enough in the general schedule that the winner could catapult themselves into a position to compete after week 12.
