Let’s make one thing clear: SMU was impressively sloppy Saturday’s win vs. Liberty. Ben Hicks threw two more interceptions in the end zone. Josh Williams missed a 30-yard field goal. SMU muffed an extra point. SMU’s streak of possessions inside an opponent’s 15-yard line without a touchdown reached 10.
At times SMU seemed like it wanted to hand the game over to Liberty. At other times, Liberty wanted to hand it to SMU. Liberty quarterbacks tossed 4 interceptions and committed an ineligible man downfield penalty that negated a touchdown. We may not see a stranger, sloppier game all season.
