I've never been more frustrated watching an SMU offensive series.

My biggest issue with deciding to pass was the weather. Both teams had dropped passes all over the place due to the rain. Had the ball to your horse and let him punch it in.

At this point I'm questioning wether it's arrogance, as some have claimed, or just plain stupidity.

I always thought a coach's primary job was to win games, but June appears to be the exception.

Post-game press conference transcript:

"June: I should have run it, uhh, on 2nd down when we, when we fum-, when we got that ball on the one yard line, I should have, I should have run it there.

Reporter: On that drive, on first and goal, uhh, from the 2, it seemed that they almost expected you to run the ball there. Did you think about doing anything else there, maybe play action, or...?

June: No. (pause) You'd like to be able to think that you can get a yard, you know, after you....and I should have run it again, but...I went into the game saying that I was gonna do that, but when we got stuffed and actually it looked like we lost a yard on the play I kind of went away from what I said I was gonna do."

I think it's stupidity
