Grading the team

Postby CalallenStang » Sat Sep 19, 2009 8:11 pm

Special Teams:

Szymanski is great. We've been spoiled with Morstead but Szymanski is not much of a step down. Sanders is always dangerous as a punt returner.

Overall: A

Defense:

They've given up a lot of yards this year, but have forced turnovers when they were needed. Against WSU, they didn't even give up many yards.

Overall: B+

Offense (excepting QB):

Best WR corps in the conference. Sanders is one of the best in the country. O-Line has done a good job. McNeal has been a real help

Overall: A-

Quarterback:

Bo Levi can put up stats, but he throws INTs like there is no tomorrow. He has lost us games. He is not a leader.

Overall: F

It will be 2-3 years until we get a good qb who has had a few years to learn the system.

What's sad is that if BLM simply cut his INTs in half, we could have a 10 win season.

I agree- 21 1/2 players played pretty damn well. Bo gets 1/2 point for 1st Half. This was one of the more dominate performances SMU has played since...let me think... hmmm

And because if you take away his INTs, his stat-line looks like Graham Harrell's from last year

If the coach says Mitchell is sick or has a bruised funny bone I will throw up, he is not getting better.

The question is, how do we get that QB grade up to at least a C.
