UNIVERSITY PARK — SMU defensive coordinator Scott Symons was asked this week about what he saw when he reviewed the film of his team’s defensive performance...
Symons had some thoughts. More than 350 words worth, though, it probably could’ve been encapsulated with his first three.He’s not alone, and it’s a feeling SMU’s defense is hoping to change quickly.
The game against Tulane may not have been the most points the SMU defense has given up this season, but allowing more than 300 rushing yards at nearly eight yards a pop, on a national stage with a conference title path still alive, might’ve made for the Mustangs’ worst showing of the season. In the meantime, with Saturday’s game against Memphis and a bowl game left on the schedule, there are some other ways the SMU defense can improve.
It was frustrating, Symons said. He even called it embarrassing, disappointing and humbling, adding that it all starts with him. He said he told his players all those things. He also challenged them to finish like they originally aspired to do and bounce back after what was perhaps their worst game of the season.
