In this episode of The QB Chronicles: An SMU Football Podcast, former SMU quarterbacks Garrett Gilbert and Kyle Padron break down the SMU's loss to Clemson in the ACC Championship game. Plus, the guys give their thoughts on their College Football Playoff. 

Whether you're a die-hard Mustang fan or just love college football, this in-depth breakdown will give you all the insights you need!

The QB Chronicles is in partnership with The 1911 Group. The 1911 Group was founded by Lindsey Brown (Dedman Law ’13) and Mitchell Brown (Dedman College ’10 & Cox MBA ’20) after realizing that there was no efficient networking platform to connect SMU alumni across all of SMU’s schools and programs. With this premise in mind, the goal was to create and host events specifically designed to bring fellow SMU alumni together and promote networking, business development, and collaboration. Our hope is that these relationships may lead to future hires, clients, investors, or business partners. To date, the 1911 Group has hosted a diverse range of networking events, with over 150 SMU alumni joining our network.
