ALERT: Rhett Lashlee MUST Figure Out How SMU Can RUN THE BALL Against EXCELLENT Wake Forest Defense

Locked On SMU - Daily Podcast on SMU Mustangs Football & Basketball

About

Grayson Singleton asks if Rhett Lashlee can find a way to unlock SMU's run game against Wake Forest’s elite defense. With Wake Forest allowing just 3.3 yards per carry and owning one of the ACC’s top stuff rates, can the SMU offensive line and backs step up to keep the play action and RPOs firing? The conversation spotlights the pivotal role of Drew Evers and Sam Utu, with a breakdown of why running outside might not cut it against the Demon Deacons’ disciplined front.

The wide receiver room draws praise for its depth and versatility, with Yamir Knight’s leadership, Jalen Cooper’s emergence, and Yannick Smith’s playmaking giving Kevin Jennings plenty of weapons. The discussion explores how this dynamic unit could be a difference-maker against Wake Forest. Wrapping up, the episode argues SMU’s 2024 campaign underscores the value of a 24-team College Football Playoff—more chaos, more talent, and more room for late-season redemption.
