or is it the CUSA defenses being exposed. Probably both. Still waiting for UCF to score a TD. TCU completely manhandled Aldridrige and UH's running game

As much as I hate the frogs, I was glad they beat those coog thugs

i think C-USA was exposed in general. our conference is a joke

and you guys are surprised?... has anyone on this board made any claim about C-USA being nothing but a below average converence.

I don't think anyone has, so it's NO news at all.

I was impressed ECU beat Boise State....

"i think C-USA was exposed in general. our conference is a joke."

Well said. Unfortunately, our administration could care less - or they wouldn't have let us & C-USA get in this bad of shape.

They haven't been exposed. ECU won vs. Boise and UCF played toe to toe w/an SEC team, albeit an average one. Who gives a crap about TCU/Houston. The best outcome of that game would have been a stadium collapse.

We've found our niche.

Even more surprising was the degree to which the Frogs shut Alridge

down. He had 15 carries for 29 net yards, including one run for 22 yards.

His remaining 14 carries netted 7 yards for an average .52 yards per

carry. Alridge admitted that he had never faced a run defense that was

that dominant.

that Mississippi State defense also held Tulane's Forte to about 42 yards rushing earlier this year. Yet Forte, Aldridge and Kevin Jones routinely run for 175-200-250-300 yards on CUSA defenses. Its a big statement just how bad the talent is on these CUSA defenses. Yet many on this board don't understand when I critcize the recruiting at SMU and CUSA schools. Anyone comparing SMU's classes with conference rivals over the last few years should understand that SMU has to do much better than recruiting at a Sun Belt level to build an average college football team. Its not good enough to recruit with Rice or Tulane. We ain't getting it done in recruiting and that should be a major driving force in determining our new Coach.

You've nailed it. It all starts with quality recruiting.

Wow that's a shock, I never would've guessed that.
