If we had scored 14 points for the two times we had first and goal, instead of allowing a pick-six, SMU would have still won, but it would have wound up something like 27-24, which is a bit more reflective of the relative yards for each team.  I’m not saying that we screwed the pooch here and should have won; SMU was clearly the better team.  But the score could have been much closer than it was.

Yeah... a 95-yard pick-SIX doesn't show up on either team's Yardage gained.  Add that to SMU.  

So, next week will be a track meet:  FLST averages 560 yds a game, and 47 points -- Average.   Balanced attack.  
Then the following week, we travel to MIAM to play the BEST DEFENSE in the ACC, allowing just 13 points a game. 
The WORST three Offenses in the ACC are KalSucks, then Stanford, then NCAR BeliSucks.   
After the road trip to Hard Rock, FL then we get 3 of 4 at home to finish on Nov. 29 (Domers) and study for finals. 
At Big Game, KalSucks could come in at 6-4, if they beat both NCAR and VTEC (likely), losing to VIRG and @LOUV. 
Last two years they finished 6-6 before bowls.  Last two years, Bears went bowling; we didn't.  
Last time we won Big Game -- 2020 on a late blocked PAT.  Bears own the axe.  Taking it this year is our bowl game. 

December = Find a coach, start working the Portal for O-Line with fresh Brad Freeman NIL money.

Beat NCAR, PITT and KAL, putting us at 5-7, which shows momentum as Harbaugh did in 2008.  
2009 was then our turnaround year with Luck, Gerhart, and an O-Line.  Crushed Troy in the Coliseum.  Finished 8-5.
