Why SMU is shaking up its defensive backfield against Cincinnati

UNIVERSITY PARK -- Coming into the season, SMU knew it was playing with fire with the young pieces in the secondary. Junior Jordan Wyatt was surrounded by three sophomores in the starting lineup, with more underclassmen serving as second-stringers.

After six weeks, it seems that head coach Chad Morris is tired of being burnt by the unit, because he promises changes will be coming during Saturday's game against Cincinnati.

"The DBs have been very inconsistent. I've been very disappointed in the overall play there from the safeties to our corners," Morris chastised at his press conference Tuesday.
