Visiting Marshall this Saturday will be the SMU Mustangs — your Conference USA West Division leaders.
Apparently, the Mustangs have been drinking June Jones’ Kool-Aid.

Jones, who arrived at SMU last year after a successful stint at Hawaii, has put his stamp on a program that is now bowl eligible for only the third time since 1997.
