Thankfully our defense is playing great! We can’t blame Smith for dropped passes. I prefer Brin because he understands the read option and I think he makes better, quicker decisions. Still, if our receivers caught Smith’s passes that were accurate, we’d probably be up 7-0.
Scoreless Q1.
Starting QB: 18 yards
Punter: 22 yards
64 yards of total offense by Tulsa
Even the announcers seem confused by Tulsa's Q1 offense. I know I am.

Tulsa 19-6 Navy (Dec 5, 2020) Box Score - ESPN
Box score for the Tulsa Golden Hurricane vs. Navy Midshipmen NCAAF game from December 5, 2020 on ESPN. Includes all passing, rushing and receiving stats.
Dropped passes are a combination of how the ball is delivered, the catch mechanics of the receivers, how consistently the receiver runs their routes, and weather. Santana and Johnson have hands of stone, we know this, they have proven it over the years. Smith is inaccurate, he has proven that over the years.
The Santana drop was a poor play call. Santana can run by Navy's defense all day. Why call it INTO a stiff wind. Blame is on the OC.
Stokes is pushing for sure, but his drop was a 15 yard bullet that Smith threw into a stiff wind. Crawford's drop was the same thing.
Now, great pass and catch with the wind... until the holding penalty...

“Something is not right with Smith.” - ESPN2 announcer.
no kidding.
no kidding.
There are plenty of games to get on smith for his early play, but this is a really bizarre one to do it, at least so far. He's a couple plays of bad luck away from 2 and maybe 3 TD passes
I think they would have gone for it if they made a positive play on 3rd down. Smith's pass was terrible. He's hurt. He has to be hurt.
Two things on the bubble screen drop. Either Smith is showing his one dimensional arm or the OC called a play that put pressure on his injury and the ball sailed because of it. Either way, it is the same problem we have seen for two years.
