from the article: "If Rice can right its own ship, SMU won’t be much of a concern."

also...the QB who started vs Texas has been injured. He'll be back for our game.

yeah, but I like the lead-in for the story the best:

"The well of optimism appears bottomless for Rice coach David Bailiff, even in the midst of dispiriting offensive ineptitude, inconsistent defensive effort and mystifying problems with turnovers and penalties."

let's hope it continues, at least one more week.

thanks for the find.

“We’ve seen all the blitzes. We’ve gone against the best defensive schemes in the nation,” Owls junior left guard Jake Hicks said. “We’ve gone against some of the toughest defenses that there are. The learning curve is over. We’ve seen everything; nothing is new. So now we can work on imposing our will and trying to dominate every person every play.”

OK, they played vs. Texas who have the #2 TTL D in the country but the average of the Ds they faced is #51

The average of offenses faced by both is interesting the same, #56

SMU has faced, on average, the #72.5 defense.

SMU D is #64 and O #58
Rice D is #98 and O #97

FWIW

What are they suppose to say? We're really scared of the 2-2 mustangs who havent beaten us at home since the invention of electricity?

Lets just worry about us and we will get one more monkey off our back

We definitely need to have our play up to snuff on this one.
