2010 = Frustrating and disappointing

Postby SMUSportsTalkNow101 » Thu Dec 30, 2010 5:01 pm

Based on last season and expectations for this year, although a bowl berth and ultimately a humiliating bowl loss, SMU football 2010 was a step backwards. Next season the bar is high with a returning o-line and d-line, quarterback, runningback and "most" skill players back with a young group coming in highly touted. Give army credit but the qb made some bad plays today as this was a very winnable game/opponent.

Agree. No real improvement, especially on offensive side this year.

Special teams was far worse than the offense, FG attempts, punt returns, kickoffs/kickoff coverage were all an adventure (being generous) and was largely responsible for our field position problems this season. McKnight really failed with that group this season.

after we scored the TD to make it 16-14, I was elated that we didnt allow the following kickoff to be returned to the house

I get more excited when we don't attempt to fair catch/return a punt than I do when we score a TD.
