For those who don't have the feed - it's SMU 21-0 3:30 left in the 1st quarter.  If you guys will post the score periodically and after scores it would be appreciate.  I got a couple of PM's from fans that said their cable didn't have the game.

Lucky them...

See, I’m in the minority that don’t think the coaching has been that bad over the last few years. I think the level of talent that the roster lacked caught up with them. 
 

EDIT: Obviously, the defense has been atrocious. I’m speaking on Seth. 

I agree with the lack of talent but how do you grade the coaching when the talent isn’t good?

So far 7 drives, 4 on offense 3 on defense. It is 7-0 SMU.

[NorthTexasWeLove]

I've seen JV kids tackle better. 

[Cr1028]

That first down run by Buechele just said EVERYTHING that needs to be said about this team

THIS IS HIS TALENT!! HE RECRUITED EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THESE GUYS!

[meangreen11]

Good news is Houston will be more gentle.

[Mean Green Matt]

Did we practice this week?

[UNTEngr.#43]

Need kids that tackle

[ghost_of_darrell_dickey]

I kind of think going for it on 4th right there was a pretty big sign of disrespect. I know it's only the 1st but there's no need to run up the score like that. Poor sportsmanship imo. 

Mostly /s

[UNT18Grad]

Losing to a team that is significantly better than us while also missing multiple starters is not bad coaching, when our players are worse than theirs it's just difficult to make simple plays just look at how we ran through HBU.  I'll reserve my judgement on our coaching for a game where we are playing a team on our level like Southern Miss

No sh!t, I’m not excusing him. I’m just saying how do you even grade coaching (much less give it a pass) when the talent isn’t there in the first place   It’s all an indictment on SL. 

[MeanGreenWithEnvy]

Folks, I owe everyone an apology on that 4th down conversion by the Ponies. I momentarily thought “thank goodness, we’re going to hold them to a FG,” and I clearly angered the football gods.

[edcollopy]

Great tackle on 4th down. We are a laughing stock. Take all of these 3* defensive players and shove me up your ass. They’re awful. Sorry, but after 30 years of garbage, I’m running out of years. To not be competitive is unacceptable. We have the most expensive staff and great facilities and we still suck ass. Happy birthday to me.

9/27/2008- Todd Dodge loses to Rice 77-10

Will SMU score more than 77 points?

 

[Travis]

Gibbs is on my shit list 

[Greendylan]

On pace for about 56-0 at the end of the half.  Good times!

How? Trying a fake punt on your own side of field when you are down by 21 points.

[YIPYKIA]

What the heck is wrong with these guys? They look horrible!

Terrible coaching. What a dumb dumb play.
