Were we really ranked the #16 team in the country this season?

SMU is a different team in November than it was in September/October. We were Top 25 good then, We are bottom 10 bad right now. I believe we would have beaten TCU in September. Now they'd crush us and we'd struggle to beat UConn and UMass.

Weird Mike McCarthy like call to go for 4th and short on around our 25 yard line early in the game
doomed our confidence, and attitude. Should have known from our shootout last year, we can't go
behind 14 points early :!: :!: :!:
May the forth be with us.

Snoop in Peanuts said that it doesn't matter if you win or lose until you lose. Losing to ECU matters and it makes us feel bad too. We should be use to it by now. Still we want and need to do better.

Silver lining: We get to keep the coaching staff as long as we like.

really??? seems like they had two weeks before this game. how did you like that result?
and last year- plenty of extra practice time. how did that turn out??

this team is doing its end of season titanic act and we don't need further embarrassment in a bowl game.

We have zero depth. We need to develop talent . You do not get that sitting on your butt. Unless of course your talent, which mine is, is eating.

There's a large drop off from our injured receivers to their replacements. We see a lot of drives stall because guys can't get open or drop balls.
