Pressure will be on our LBs and to contain the RPO but I like our group

As bad as our pass defense looked against Houston, Memphis' is even worse. Our run offense and run defense are a little better than theirs as well.

SMU should win this game by more than a touchdown, 40 something to 30 something.

Keep your eye on turnovers. Memphis turns it over a ton, but SMU doesn't force many. If Memphis avoids the TO, it could be a closer game.

We have come a long way from the days of the Memphis game simply being a great opportunity for the coaches to get some good teaching film for our practices.

Well, here we are in November, with extra drama to go with the normal fear of the November Swoon. If we play hard, we should beat Memphis....they aren't as good as Houston. If we come out flat, like at Houston, we can easily lose this one and then we will be faced with the wheels totally coming off. I am going to pick the Mustangs in this one, because I don't want to think about what happens to this season, if we don't.

I can't make one this week. As previously stated I think we win only one of the games against Memphis and UCF, then lose to Cincy, and close-out the regular season by beating Tulsa to end up regular season 9-3....which is actually not bad at all.

Hard to imagine doing better than 2-2 to finish the regular season but we can always hope.

I really believe we can beat Memphis, UCF and tiny tulsa. Cincy is always a possibility but not likely.

This game in the colder temps on Saturday will be helpful preparation for the Cin game (On Saturday, will be in the high 40s during warm-ups and then into the low 50s at KO)

We come out flat, again. Worst secondary in college football lives down to expectations and special teams revert to their previous level of ineptness. We lose in a blow out.
