What will SMU fans panic about this week?

[George S. Patton]

The defense isn't very good because it's giving a ton of yards after the game is put away?

There's no way SMU can keep up the scoring pace with Tulsa because fans automatically assume Tulsa's offense will just operate with pristine efficiency?

No Symanski in the PK duties really could be a problem, even though we're not sure what his status is -- but fans assume he already won't play?

Will this offense ever get clicking because what happened at Rice was just an out-of-body experience?

I'm just warming you guys up.

The floor is yours...

We would certainly panic if you didn't make a thread about panic.

[George S. Patton]

I forgot to include this, but I already saw it posted yesterday.

It's the weekly..."The [Insert school here] game scares me to death.'' line

That's a classic.

i don't think there is anything to panic about. we're winning this game!

Ole George just wants to get us overconfident.

GSP --
nothing.
it seems strangely quiet on the board this week. no 'sky is falling', no 'we are the enemy', no......nothing. it seems that everyone is expecting two teams to be competitive in this contest, and the better team (SMU) to prevail. along the way, we are buoyed by the hope of seeing KP continue to progress on his play last week, and to really have the offense shine (well, even more than it has already).
the days of panic may be slipping away. we have a team.

I'll panic about the defense's tackling, it was pretty weak versus Rice.

Panic is always present - I think the cooler weather has subdued us into a false sense of security

perhaps.

of course, I won't argue the fact that panic will reign supreme as soon as the first bad play occurs in the game.

I am panicking because I will not be able to attend the game and most likely not in the game thread (although I will start the official thread).

good on you for having priorities straight...give your granny a hug and hope she has a happy birthday...bet she will be pleased you are there, I suspect.

This is the grandmother that went to UT but she and my grandfather, also a UT grad, had season tickets to SMU in the 60's and 70's and know more about SMU than I do.
