Official SMU-UTEP Game Thread

I think KP didn't play for a couple of reasons---1) JJ is trying to build JJ's confidence and 2) JJ has earned the right to start

I am back on the shuttle!!

Just got back...not very fun tonight...lots of analysis to do.
June has very little confidence in offense and wr's have a lot to do with bad qb play.

we might see more of Williams spotting Line; it may have just been the situation (with UTEP down) but the kid showed a pretty good burst

wide receivers have been very poor overall...where was Wilkerson tonight, disappearing act? For all the potential we have been hearing about Keenan Hollman, he has not looked very good this year (not giving him too much credit for the td against blown coverage).

[Hoop Fan]

And Pardon did not do well tonight. HE held the ball too long and got sacked. Let Dermott have the NW State game to tune up since this is only his second game.

you talking about one chaotic unplanned play when McD got shaken up or whatever? McD did not play well, one horrible interception, another should have been and zero, ZERO points in the second half. wow.

Good to see another rb getting a chance even if it was during junk time. Zach is great, but if we are getting serious about the run we need more than one to change it up. McD is not the answer but he has yet to lose the right to be the starter. Hopefully both KP and McD will get equal time against NWS and Memphis. TCU is only three games away.

keenan looked good last year with Kp at QB

[Lebanese4Life]

June Jones seemed ticked off in his post game interview probably because the offense was horrible and JJ didn't play as good as he would've liked. I do agree that JJ makes quicker reads but what is the point in starting him over Padron when this is his last year. Does Jones plan on going with KP next year? If that's so, KP should definitely be starting these games. Just because Padron made 2 bad throws against the #8 ranked team in the country in the very first drive of the game doesn't mean we should make our back up senior qb our starter. I don't understand Jones sometimes.

Earned? Hows that? KP has done alot of good things the past 2 years to give up on him.

so you think 9 receptions for 102 yards and 1 td in 3 starts is good for a R & S offense?

[NomAnor]

I never thought i would see the day where a June Jones led team was being carried by the D

Are you kidding? What does the starting QB next year have anything to do with who starts this year? Who cares if he's a Sr...June is gonna play whoever gives us the best chance to win NOW...we have a conference championship to win this year...

[MustangSTATS]

On the bright side Margus had another block.

Jones probably isn't thinking about next season right now. I do think Padron should get some series in the next 2 games to prove if he has anything left though but if Jones thinks McDermott is the better option then McDermott should start. Our QB situation is seriously [deleted] up.
