Official SMU-UCF Game Thread

We are thankful that we have a BYE after a win like that. Time to enjoy the win, but then its take to go back to work. Conference games matter more than a rivalry win against TCU.

We will not be rank but neither will TCU

The bye week couldn't come at a better time for SMU. If they had to play UCF next week, I don't think it would be pretty. Skillet coming back to Big D. HAHA

Perfect time for the bye week. The 25 year mess is getting further behind us.

Being ranked would be awesome

I think a win against UCF would get us rank, not going to worry about it.
Congratulations to Coach Jones and the team. A Signature win!!!!!!!

If we beat UCF and Houston, we will be ranked.

I bet Patterson's undies are really messy.

[CA Mustang]

allowing 2 points in the 4th quarter is a very huge concern

You mean 23?

True. I expected TCU to put up a furious fight that quarter so some points should be expected, but 23 is tough to withstand in almost any game.

A few more wins and we will be ranked. One game at a time. SMU-UH game could be a huge one with both teams ranked, but UCF is next and they are a very talented team with a great QB.

[CalallenStang]

Every team will just go no-huddle to beat us

[Comet]

Yeah we wont be ranked after that. Maybe if TCU were ranked in the top 10 like last year. Either way though, great game, terrible 4th. Here's to a well deserved bye week, and then hopefully revenge against UCF.

Should not be anymore QB controversy. JJMc is the one.

True, this makes him bulletproof now. Looked like he was ready to cave but nutted up with a huge throw in OT for the winning score.

THis could be our greatest year since DP. Thank you JJ and team.

[PoconoPony]

JJ's play calling and the total lack of any changes in the defensive strategy in the 4th quarter drove me nuts. 3 times in the last 10 minutes we went 3 passes and out. Defense used 3 man rush 95% of the time when the key was pressure on the QB. How can you give up 23 points in the 4th quarter and not make any defensive adjustments?????

[SmooBoy]

He is 4-0 with a win over top-25 as a starter. He stays.
