Rice 43 SMU 42

Post by Sam I Am »

About the final score, you don't want to know. SMU has no 4th quarter this season. Why? We finally had a good scoring offense this year, and of all things, the defense went away. What a homecoming nightmare!

i know we had a lot of injuries, but that was gutless. doesnt seem to be a backbone on this team. dont think anyone can deny that after the collapses this season against less than stellar opponents.

sooner or later, somebody has to make a key play. No one can do it. Not on offense. Not on defense. Not on special teams. No one. Facts are facts at this point.

Clock management would have given us a chance. There are games where the coach can pull it out by coaching...that has not happened all year.

As ive been saying for the past 2 years, WE DONT PLAY A COMPLETE GAME...45 minutes is not 4 quarters...

THIS ISNT HIGHSCHOOL ANYMORE, NO LEAD IS SAFE, especailly if you're playing US.

It was a painful one today. Our 5 year old burst into tears when the game ended. I think she summed up the feelings of every SMU fan in the stadium today. Poor kid cried all the way out of the stadium. We're working on sportsmanship this week. :wink:

Go buy your 5-year old an orange jersey...I think it would be a better investment that all of thereapy she will need if she continues to be a Mustang fan!

did anybody else notice how unmotivated the team looked when they jogged out of the giant helmet instead of running with some excitement?

Maybe that is why we have so many "injured" players?

LOL Shhhhh! She already has an orange cheerleading uni hanging in the closet. We started the process early.
