This is something that I have noticed this year and especially the last couple of weeks.  The timing of our wrinkles, changeups, and key breakers has been really good.  Also glad that we didn't just run the reverse one time.  Keep running it until they stop it.

I loved seeing Horton in running the ball like it was a punt return. The blocks were setup, delayed hand-offs, ready to pick his holes. Was great to see!

They ran a similar running play earlier in the game…this time they threw it. It was a nice pass and a great grab!  He wasn’t necessarily open, but he went up to get it.  Glad Gumms is on our side. 

This is what a QB is supposed to do for his playmakers. Not necessarily throw it in double coverage but if it's 1 on 1, give them a chance to get up and go get it. If you're waiting on your guys to be wide open every single play, things become problematic.

Not sure about the brilliance of the call, but Gumms was in beast mode to pull that in and make the score.

It was the jumping into the wildcat right before the snap that I liked about it.  Which I'm sure confused the defense for a bit before the ball was snapped.  Then there are variations that can be run off this look.  Aune could have given it to Horton on the reverse, Aune could have given to Horton and thrown back to Aune or another WR, Addaway could have kept it, etc.  Part of me thinks Bloeche was calling this game to give Nutsack different looks to prepare for next week. Just my opinion.

      24/25 MBB Attendance Tracker

      Third home game in a row under 3K in attendance and 4th for the season. Now at 2,947, average attendance is down almost 13% (439 per game) compared to the first 7 home games last year. We are now down 1,185 in average attendance compared to last season's full year average. The home conference slate kicks off with UAB on New Year's Eve. Hopefully, we will be able to chip away at this attendance deficit as some familiar foes visit the Super Pit, but it looks like hitting a 4K average and growing average attendance for the 3rd year in a row is becoming increasingly out of reach. Just win and they will come they said. SMH. On the bright side, we're currently sitting at 9-3 and 7-0 at home and own the 2nd best Net rating in the conference only behind Memphis. Unfortunately, the conference is incredibly weak this year so we don't have many opportunities to improve that ranking. Aside from winning on the road at Memphis, holding serve in terms of a Net rating may be the best we can do from here. Actually, looking at the schedule, we do have three Q2 road games (Wichita St, FAU and Temple). They need to keep winning and we will need to win those three to improve our resume.

      SMUt getting owned by State

      Tell me you’ll peddle BS on SMU’s behalf without telling me you’ll peddle BS on SMU’s behalf. Here is SMU’s attendance claim for this season; one so amazing that they made a nifty graphic for it. The only issue? Well, they played 7 home games and the stadium seats 32k…so an average attendance of 32,651 which is standing room only and beyond capacity is a bit difficult to swallow and leads one to believe that only believers in SMU math would buy it. And save me the “but look at North Texas’ attendance” garbage. Even someone as committed to being separated from reality as you knows that if North Texas 1) bought their way into the ACC to allow us to fill our stadium with opposing fans, 2) overpaid for players, and 3) had the easiest conference schedule possible to stack wins…Apogee would have been LEGITIMATELY sold out. And let me save you the trouble of the next silly argument you were just itching to type as a retort…yes, we have far more alumni, but we are not situated DEAD CENTER in a city of 1.3 Million people like SMU has been for decades

      Stop Blaming Athletes and the NCAA for Ruining College Football

      Come to think of it, ESPN and the other networks who really benefit from all of this, should contribute $$ to a NIL fund and distribute equally to each schools NIL for them to use at their discretion. Wouldn't that be fair?

      Say you didn't see any SMU crowds this season, without saying you didn't see any SMU home crowds this season. That place was packed and rocking, like nobody could've dreamed.
