What is it going to take to ever have any offense again?

At least in the days of the run-n-shoot we could pass the ball.

From an outsiders perspective, SMU's offense is just too relaxed. They were down, and not by a lot, but then they would walk slowly to the line. Everything was drudgery. There was very little excitement or outward displays of agressiveness. Basically they looked like they didn't want to be on the field-- much less on the field together. I admit-- I was VERY shocked to see the QB, after getting sacked, throw the ball to the belly of a lineman who was not 5 feet away (it bounced off and then on to the ground). The worst of it is that there were 2 coaches who got in to it (verbally) right in front of the players, so problem isn't just at the players' level.

Like I said-- just an outsiders perspective.

Tulsa fan, your outside perspective merits attention. Total confusion, lack of unity, poor leadership...MENTAL MADNESS for players, coaches, fans, and families. I have been involved with football all my life. 5A HS football, Div I Big 12, PRO football, and now Div I WAC. NEVER have I experienced a program like SMU. Definitely unique and one of a kind...Just hope everyone involved can weather this terrible storm. Pray for a miracle because I think that is what it will take.
