Official: SMU vs Navy Predictions

[ponypatrick]

If Brown plays min. of 3/4 of game : SMU 31 Navy 24

[One Trick Pony]

I'll take this option:

an offensive play in which the ball carrier has the option to run, pass, hand off, or lateral.

Mustangs -3

Lots of patriotic gestures

Hope I am wrong but past history is just too much...

Navy 43-40

Possible forecast of rain for the Navy game. Seems like rain has become the normal for this rivalry. Navy always wins when it rains and this will be no different on Saturday. Only hope for SMU is to start Brown and let his runs take some time off the clock to help the D and take pressure off a passing attack that has not had a good success rate in bad weather.

Unfortunately, I haven't seen the defense really step up all year. Playing against the Navy option is just not in our wheelhouse. Has any team used a 3/4 with a 4 safety set against them. Their wideouts aren't crazy fast. That way cornerbacks don't get blown away by a pulling guard or tight end.

As for the offense. If its PickHicks, we'll be down by 4 touchdowns before you can say "go". If its Brown, we'll see how he manages the team for a whole game and how many freshman mistakes he makes.

Defense has been playing better and better through each of the first three games. At times they were solid last week. And we get Nelson and Wyatt back.

WE'RE DOOMED!!!

Navy has boats.

SMU 31
Navy 28

D plays their tails off to hold Navy to only 1 touchdown in the first half and we go in 17-7 for the first half lead of the season. After going down 28-24 with the D tiring in the second half Brown leads us on a game winning drive starting our march to a 7 win season and a second consecutive bowl game. Can't wait to get loud on Saturday. Let's Go 'Stangs!

Not bad. No one predicted the OT, though.

[SMU_Alum11]

My 35-31 score would have been pretty precise had we got the extra point and a field goal. #Sad

Well, not really because then we wouldn't have gone into OT.
