Well... seeing as the season just died, we open the show with TAPS. Toast goes right in on how anything less than an ACC Championship or a Playoff run in a failure, and here we are again with another failed season in November. And before we even get into the game, immediately the question of Mario's leadership and coaching are called to the carpet, largely because nothing is changing with his status and contract, and how this team under his leadership can navigate the future. Roman goes to the stats to show exactly how they aren't adapting, and actually regressing in the months of November and December, logging a terrible 5-10 record in November and December the last few years. Scoop also talks about the insiders he talked to after the game saying SMU knew they were running up the middle every time they went there, and they refused to even try anything different. And of course the question about Dawson's play calling - and who is really pulling the strings - gets everyone's ire due to the lack of performance and lack of creativity. The conversation then turns to the total lack of discipline by this team, with penalties racking up game-by-game and never seeming to improve, largely due to the false starts and holdings by the offensive line. Plus there are so many simple things that continue to fail, like the plays not coming in on time and burning timeouts because of it. There is also a lot of discussion about the future of the program as a whole, how the roster handles the downfall this season, and what that means for the next group of recruits waiting in the wings. We are upset, and frustrated, and just letting it all pour out tonight after a devastating loss.
