Maybe bcos Smu was never at the top to begin with ?
Where as Nus had a few good runs n pple have high expectations from them ?
Jus perhaps..and for Smu case..
I feel that impression wise
pple are still viewing them as a new team hence fore less expecations as compared to other Unis like Ntu n Nus..
Even in this entire discussion, u seldom see pple praising SIM n SMU..
Due to their performances from years ago.
I feel pple are making judgement based on impression n past results..
Which we all know it's not accurate but is still guilty of doing.
