Granted, First time I have watched an SMU game this season…but damn…that SMU QB is single handily giving the game to Penn State. Bad decision on first drive cost them points then three INTs including a Pick Six. And still 7 minutes to go in the first half! Body language now looking bad. SMU defense actually playing okay but their QB is killing them!
Posters who think SMU QB better than Reed?

The TexAgs logic is basically
"anyone that has a nice play or two for another team" > "anyone we have on our roster"
It was silly when this debate was happening last week and it's silly now.
Very similar to the posters who are pissed we didn't go after Van Buren, who had worse stats across the board than Reed and had multiple receivers rated more highly than ours that portaled out and was probably our #2.

He has been pretty good this year for the most part. He is rattled here for sure. Trying too hard to make things happen. Making poor decisions.
No way his better than Reed imho.

Didn't you get the memo. Every QB is better than Reed
World's worst proofreader
He's a good QB against lesser teams. Not that great against a legit team.
Dude is a gunslinger who has made some questionable decisions today
Reed is a small framed guy who wasn't accurate this year.
Bad combo for the offense we are trying to run.
So either he puts on 30lbs and starts hitting receivers, or we are going to keep having this discussion

SMU made an impressive comeback against Clemson in the ACC championship game, only to lose on a last second field goad. Why don't we let the kid play the full game before completely trashing him, eh?
28-0 at the half…can they do a mercy rule and just end this now, then move up the start time of the next games so we can all go to bed tonight a little earlier?
So you wanna do that the next time the Aggies are down like that at the half?
M Reed was a redshirt freshman playing in the toughest conference in America and won some good games for us, especially when we had Moss at RB to help take pressure off of him.. How about we let him develop at QB before drawing any conclusions.

If it sincerely looked like we were notably outclassed and overwhelmed and ending the game short would be an act of mercy…then sure!
From quick googling, a 28 point comeback by SMU would be Top-15 comeback in college football history (regular or post-season) and largest comeback ever vs Penn State at Beaver Stadium. So…this game is effectively over and only question in second half is how much 'morale' victory does SMU (and their QB) salvage…or not.
Seeing if SMU can manage to lose by only 20 instead of 50 isn't really that entertaining of a watch.

Yes.
Rc slocum with the field goal down 28-0

In this place, if QB1 isn't playing like JFF, they suck.
Of which QB2, or anybody else's QB1 that completes a pass, is automatically perceived as better

Pretty much left premium bc to many posters on there were propping Weigman up and trying to force him into the starting spot he already lost once. It was crazy how hard they wanted him to be the QB.
And of course everyone saw how things ended up for him.
They are probably still in denial.

I'm waiting.
Not in denial. Two totally different style quarterbacks with an OC that doesn't know how to use either one. One is a much better passer and one is a much better runner. Too bad we don't have an OC capable of building an offense around either one.
Once Penn State got up by a couple of scores, thanks to him, they mixed up their coverages and started coming after him en masse. They weren't worried about immediate scores as they'd have time to adjust if SMU did score. But the SMU QB can't read the new coverages very fast and looks completely lost. They need to send Stone in there SOLELY to throw a wrinkle into what PSU is doing.

This post right here proves my point. In denial

What's our team doing today?
And you're the person who always thinks the backup is the best QB and the next Head Coach will be the one that gets us over the top. Rinse and repeat.
Nope
Strike two for you
I'm good with Reed. He was basically the starter for most of the year. If I were a backup QB guy, I would be wanting another.

There should be a rule in college football. Two pick sixes in a game and you're replaced. Every coach should have that rule.
Nowadays it's hard to know who the hell is on our roster.
Reed lost to South Carolina, Auburn, and didn't score a single point on Sips.sincereag said:

how do you feel any better about yourself? Lol your guy blew our last 3 games and didn't come close to scoring a point vs Sips who Vandy scored 24 on.LB12Diamond said:

I'm curious 1188, are you on some form of medication? Every time you make a post I think cannot be more off base than your last one. You prove me wrong. It's very interesting bc I have no idea what's taking place in your head.

The comparisons are silly. Different people in different circumstances. More like the ND avd PSU defenses are better. Kind of like ND and CW.
How is this argument tactic offering compelling evidence that the SMU QB would be a better option for A&M as an SEC QB than Marcel Reed? The Ole Miss & Bama QBs are also not playing in the CFP today. Is the SMU QB also better than their QBs? Better than the QB of any team not playing in the CFP today?The Porkchop Express said:He's playing in the CFP today.Pumpkinhead said:

Reeds accuracy improved as the year went on, despite never practicing with the 1's until Game 3, having to sit the bench in the middle of a winning streak, and having Colin Klein call an offense that was easily predictable. He finished the year 60% in the SEC as a RS fish.
The SMU QB just got absolutely annihilated against only the 2nd team he played all season with high caliber talent.
I'll take Reed all day and it's not close. But I'd love Lashlee as OC. That would be a great combo.

So you are saying if our freshman QB doesn't get stronger and improve, we're in trouble? That's some insightful analysis. How many freshmen build muscle and improve later in their careers? What do you think our chances are?
Who cares? Jennings and SMU won 11 games and did what they had to do to make the playoffs.
Reed and Texas A&M did not.
SMU had the better season.
