Post game thoughts

1) How many of you, before the season, would have honestly said the goal for this year was to play for the CUSA title? That is a realistic goal today. Let that sink in.

2) We should have shut UTEP out. Our defense is that good. Their only score was a fluke. We held them to 1.3 yards a carry and 56 total rushing yards. I know UTEP isn't a juggernaut, but this is still impressive...by the way, they ran for 127 against aTm.

3) Brelan should have had another return for a TD. That block in the back was silly.

4) We should have run more. I know, I know, we had a butt load of rush yards but DT is not a deep ball QB and we kept trying to force it. It worked once. We averaged about 10 a carry and could have killed the clock much earlier than we did.

5) SMU got beat down today. That's it, just wanted to say it.

6) I was ok with the crowd size. If we could convince the frat boys to put down the bourbon and walk inside we'd really be in business.

7) I want to send a shout out to Lefty's son. He's gonna be a gamer and not every defense will hit like this.

8) It's so so so so so so so so nice to talk about bowl season and discuss which one we're headed to.

9) couldn't we have let Berglund throw 1 pass? A screen even.

10) I hope the two weeks off heals up a bunch of guys. UTSA is coming in to play their "Super Bowl" against the west division leaders.

And this may be the perfect football night.

We won.

SMU lost.

UH choked against UCF (a week without Cougar Queen)

Texas on the verge of losing to WVU. Edit: Oh well, maybe this means Mack keeps his job

And Tulane lost toward the end of the game by a field goal.

Great day and season

Is it possible for your offense to be too big?

I thought UTEP's offense was pretty good size and made our D look small. One tightend was 6'7", the other 6'5". Both massive but too slow to get open on a consistent basis.

But I thought our guys looked way too quick for their offense overall.

Would have loved to see one Berglund pass. I know we were being classy and not run up the score, but he needs the work in a real game. DT played too long, but I can not complain too much about a great win.

Or a run maybe? Dude has wheels, let's see him run some zone read or just a qb keeper or two.
