38 - 17 PONIES

GOOO PONIES

DEs McElveen and McSwain are damn good, so Willis will take a few hits.

SMU 31
UAB 17

Philip Bennett comes out of that tunnel dressed up as a REAL football coach for Halloween and uses his defensive mind to scare the UAB Offense into 5 turnovers.

First time on ESPN in what feels like a lifetime, it will be one to remember for years to come as SMU dominates on Halloween. UABs dragons burn is not as bad as Perunas bite.

SMU 41
UAB 16

I'd go with
SMU 35
UAB 24

SMU has to score 30+ points to win ball games, especially with that defense, and you know UAB is going to have a couple tricks up their sleeves.

UAB 31
SMU 21

Hopefully this won't backfire again like ECU.

SMU - 27
UAB - 10

I wouldn't hazard a guess. It depends on which team shows up for the game.

I had a dream last night that I was watching the game.... the final score?

SMU 45
UAB 10

Willis had four touchdowns through the air and his first 300 yard passing game. Plus one touchdown on the ground. Martin had a long 60-70 yard touchdown.

Over the past, oh I'd say ten years, I have dreamt about a SMU game I'd say 3 times, I dreamt we lost each one of those previous times... and then we proceeded to lose the following game. Of course, I did once dream that we lost to UTD.... that was right before the first game following our 0-fer season.

But I'd like to see the dream as good omen.

Wow, your dreams must be true visions of what is to come...Either that, or SMU must've had a bad football team at the time you had those other two dreams.

SMU has a balanced attack. They are at their best when they pass to set up the run. SMU stops the run very well, and has major issues in pass defense; some of those could be alleviated by the changein personell. SMU has strong special teams and also has a good amount of sacks and a lot of tackles for a loss, so the d-line is doing their job.

ECU runs first to set up the pass. They run the option and then throw the ball once teams push safties up. They don't have many passing yards, but the passing efficiency is decent because of that. Their pass defense is decent, but that is mostly because the run defense is so bad; their pass efficiency defense is not good at all. Despite the defensive ends, they don't get behind the line much, not too many sacks and not many tackles for a loss at all.

This is a team that I believe SMU matches up very well against. On defense, if we can stuff them with our front 7, we are in good shape. Our safties tackle very well, and that will help us defend the option.

Offensively, they don't have a great pass defense, and we should be able to set up the run with the pass pretty well. Willis could have a very good game in this one.

We also have much better special teams, from a return aspect and a punting aspect.

Against common opponents, they beat ECU when ECU was banged up. They just lost to Marshall, which SMU beat.

I expect a 34-10 SMU victory.

back to hoping the Mustangs prove me wrong when I predict a W for the opposing team:

UAB 37
SMU 21

UAB 31

SMU 3

whatever, troll....
