4-1 with the loss to a top 10 team and we have beat the spread in all 5 games. What the hell else do you want? There is another team out there playing against us. We played poorly today and won by 3 touchdowns. Stop it.

Tulane is probably the only remaining game where we will be the favorite. Unless we get QB figured out, getting to seven wins is going to be very tough.

Tulane runs the option. Other than Navy they scare me the most of our remaining schedule.

Just thought that I heard Coach Malone say that Robinson was either a Safety or a CB. Isn’t either better than Anthony Rhone? Why has OL Kadarius Smith not played this season? I thought that he Redshirted last year and showed lots of promise? Pursley was beat multiple times today.


2 different Robinsons. Delano is a Star-Justin Guy-Robinson is a CB

I think it is reasonable to expect wins against Cincinnati, Tulsa, and Tulane. Cincinnati is getting drilled by Marshall tonight. Tulsa is bad this year. Tulane is much improved, but so are we and it is a home game. We will need to play our best football to beat Houston and/or UCF but it is possible. I don't see any way we beat Memphis or Navy.

Possible to beat Houston or UCF? Impossible to beat Memphis or Navy? Glad your sport wasn't football. Every one of those teams is very beatable by this SMU team.

It wasn't pretty, but it was a WIN! Come midnight that will be better than half the Teams in the Country!! Things are looking up at SMU. The Fans are no longer happy with an UGLY 20 Point win!!

Navy and Memphis have had our number and are road games. Houston is a rivalry game so I think we bring our A game. UCF is a home game so that is why I think we have a chance.

I'm more worried about UCF at home than UH on the road. UCF is burning on all cylinders-UH is sputtering on Offense

Got you down for 0-4 against those four teams.

if Participation Stats are correct-Justin Guy Robinson hasn't played yet this season-he just might have to if we keep getting injuries though. Many players showing 5 games so it must be updated

Justin Guy played against Arkansas State. Wyatt got hurt and Eric Sutton twisted an ankle and JGR played and played well.

When you can’t tackle, and you run defenses with no cover, everyone is a scary opponent.
