Over the Past 22 Games….Our Vaunted D

Postby SoCal_Pony » Sun Nov 09, 2008 12:51 am

Has on average allowed almost 500 yards per game.

Only 2 teams have not gotten a minimum of 400 yards on us….TCU last year (our only decent defensive showing in 2 years) and UCF this year. UCF, btw, has the lowest rated offense this season in terms of yards gained.

This is not a coaching issue, but a talent one.

I am not sure there are even 3 players on our D who should at any point in their careers here be starting.

If JJ does not make an all-out effort to bring in some serious JC talent on Defense, I will conclude one of two things…either he is semi-retired or SMU is still not on a level playing field.

Oh, and one last point…Logan Turner ain’t the answer.

I really believe this is the worst team in fifteen years. And I won't let the coaches off either!

If we even had the 90th ranked D would have won three more games this year.

It is hard to watch every week, every team just runs right over us.

We might be slow but we're small too!

I realy like some of the guys on D but we do not have a line.
Yenga should be at LB.

From what I hear... help is on the way for next year.

Go Coaches!
Go SMU
