SMU postgame notes

Stats are for losers

Then why are you even reading this thread??

Self explanatory.

Was at the game in New Orleans and walked away with reasons for optimism.

A Tale of Two Halves didn't give us the win, but I believe, a light switch did go off in the final two quarters. After watching a half dozen dropped or missed passes early in the game, the Mustangs began believing in the system and the possibilities.

With another possession, BLM would have probably scored. Having said that, defense needs to stop the run. They should have been very tired and discouraged, but they played their hearts out in second half.

Time is on the side of this system, a freshman quarterback and a team, who is starting to see the possibilities that come from discipline and intensity.

Great job Ponies!

I will be interesting to see how the D does vs. a team with poor passing and average running, like UCF.

How will our last-in-CUSA pass D fair vs. UCF's last-in-CUSA passing O?

In the past, our defense has managed to put tight ends in a wishbone offense on the Heisman watch list. Who will be the lucky UCF offensive player that goes from obscurity to national prominence this week?

Man, I need to start looking at the SMU postgame notes ONLY from here on out ... they seem so positive ... I would've thought we won 30-0, looking at those.

UCF had a bad loss to UTEP this week. They gave Top 15 team USF all it could handle losing in OT. So, they are not as bad as they were this past week. And they'll be angry at that shabby performance. This is a real test for our team.
