SMU game thread

If your excuse for doing something really, really stupid is "well it didn't end up making any difference anyway", I don't know what to say to that.

That's almost, but not quite, as stupid as not going for two to try to get it to 11 instead of 12.
Well if we take the context of my original response that you’ve latched onto like a starving dog with a bone, it was a reply to a guy who said he won’t criticize any of Narduzzi’s dumb decisions anymore, because, her whiz, that crazy Dabo just made a really dumb one. As though there is some kind of equivalency between the capabilities of the two coaches. Which there isn’t. One has achieved elite head coach status, the other is, well, Narduzzi.

So please, continue hammering home your myopic criticism of my comment while ignoring the context within which it was made. . It’s a really worthwhile use of your time and energy, and a really endearing quality.

You know you don’t have athletes when last years 4th string 250 pound tight end at Michigan outruns your entire secondary for 80 yards like they’re standing still.

Oh, well if that's what you meant then I apologize.

I mean I thought that you were reasonably intelligent, but I clearly must have overestimated you. I'm sorry.

The fact that one is a great coach and the other is not has literally nothing at all to do with the decision in question. The context wasn't their overall careers, it was one decision in one game. An incomprehensibly stupid decision. One that one or two or 20 national championships doesn't change. Unless, I guess, if you think that someone who wins a championship is immune from criticism.
 
Keeping Holstein in the game just reeks of desperation at this point. Nothing magical is going to happen in the last nine minutes against soft coverage that puts him in some type of rhythm for next week.
 
What a shame. It defies all logic that a program could kick its fans in the balls so often, so consistently for 40 years. SMU is way above Pitt in every aspect of how to get things done. They aren't even getting paid and they are light years beyond Pitt. Add another team to the vast list of programs that are going to use us as a soft step stool to success.

still kind of early, but Lashlee looking like the assistant who makes the successful leap to head coach. SMU Made more plays, seemed more athletic, and out-schemed Narduzzi. And this from an AAC team last year, now in the drivers seat for the ACC. So ironic, but par for the course.

Wouldn't be surprised if Auburn or Arkansas makes a run at Lashlee pretty soon.

I guess I’m not reasonably intelligent. Maybe you could explain to me how Dabo botching a routine decision would cause someone to feel that Pat Narduzzi should then be excused from future criticisms of his own bad decisions, because even collectively they’re not as egregiously bad as Dabo’s gaffe was tonight? Does that make some kind of logical sense to anyone that I just can’t discern?
