Here is what they said regarding SMU's season:

SMU: 3-9 (3-5)

1% chance to go 7-5
5% chance to go 6-6
13% chance to go 5-7
24% chance to go 4-8
28% chance to go 3-9
20% chance to go 2-10
8% chance to go 1-11
1% chance to go 0-12


So 0% chance of 8-4 or better?


That is because they read ponyfans and don't know crap. 8-4

I am going to restrain myself and just say SMH.

FO is the premier football analytical website out there. Every major journalist worth a lick incorporates their analysis into their articles and tons of bettors (me included) have benefited tremendously from their analysis.

Go read their FO Almanac and prepare to be blown away from 510 pages of pure gold.

I'll go 4-7 with victories over the Mean Green, Cincy, Memphis and UConn.

The game with Baylor could be a slaughterhouse.

Will Baylor run up the score to celebrate the new stadium opening? This could be June's version of the horrible Bennett game at Kyke Field.

Well June Jones said that SMU has an NFL type secondary. I think that means they could cover the Baylor receivers.
