Before the last SMU win, against Houston in Dallas, head coach Rhett Lashlee said he had a feeling they were going to win. And on Saturday against an unspectacular USF team, the same sentiment was felt around the dressing room as the players lined up to play.
In a season that started awkwardly, with two wins on the trott, winning was something this SMU team were beginning to get accustomed to, so why would it stop now?
“I believe in my team, and I believe we’re a good football team,” Lashlee had iterated loss after loss at the start of the season.
