JW would have ran on two of the forced throws BLM made. JW would have ran on the last play Turner had. He had an easy first down, plus 4 or 5.

He also would've run on ever other play ever. I highly doubt the offensive production would've been any better.

Less INTs, but no more TDs...

No excuses. Tackle should have been made. D back failed to position himself to use side line to corner receiver for tackle/out of bounds.

Other than the blown TD call, the only other MAJOR complaint I have is leaving Crabtree wide open for a TD. Inexcusable.

Bring in J Dub, run the option, score a TD or two, and don't get shutout.

On the other hand, trust in JJ. This is the foundation for the future. We are going to be fine in the long run, just not tonight.

No one can say for sure if JW would have done any better or worse overall this year. It would all be speculation. What is not speculation is that he was the rushing leader last year and has the school career TD and season TD record. He is a proven commodity.

UNT was made fun of during the USC halftime report but not SMU - we have been validated

Logan Turner should not be on a D-1 practice squad

Player has been DQd!?

Interesting quote from TT D coordinator referring to simplification of the D under his system, " A clouded (confused) mind means slow legs; a clear mind means fast legs." True; however, he neglected to account for experience. A mind with experience tends to be more clear.

We needed to play a perfect game to stay with Tech. We blow that in the first 3 possessions. Now it is just a long night that hopefully our young players will learn and improve. WE could not have injuries and we have the O line devastated. Too many interceptions and penalties. A total lack of tackling. Well, maybe next week.

I can't believe Auburn is only up 3-2 over Miss State with 5 minutes left in the 4th
