CFN Prediction: Fresno St 48 - SMU 24
32. Sheraton Hawai'i
Fresno State vs. SMU
Honolulu, HI Aloha Stadium
Dec. 24, 8:00 pm, ESPN
Three Reasons Why You Have To Watch This Bowl
1. Fresno State is full of terrific talents who’ll be spending time on NFL rosters in the near future. QB Derek Carr has already announced he’s returning for his final season, while Robbie Rouse is one of the nation’s most explosive runners. The Bulldogs have the potential to put on a show.
2. It’s June Jones coming home. Is it going to move the needle for the former Hawaii head coach to bring his SMU team to town? Probably not, but he’s going to make sure his team is ready and prepared. No one knows how to handle playing in paradise better.
3. SMU found itself over the second half of the season winning four of its last six games including a tough victory over Conference USA champion Tulsa just to get bowl eligible. Fresno State has won its last five games and seven of its last eight.
And Why You Shouldn’t Care A Lick: Fresno State is far, far better. If the Bulldogs have the right frame of mind and they take this game seriously, they should be able to win in an ugly blowout. SMU is way too inconsistent.
Three Names To Drop To Make Every Man Want You And Every Woman Fear You
1. QB Derek Carr. Jr. Fresno State - He’s not the talent his brother, David, was, but he’s a smart bomber who’s coming into his own with almost 7,500 passing yards and 62 scores over the last two seasons.
2. RB Zach Line, Sr. SMU - Injured late last year, he didn’t get to play in the bowl. The ultra-productive back has hit the 1,000-yard mark three years in a row with 46 career rushing scores and 4,114 yards.
3. DB Phillip Thomas, Sr. Fresno State - The Thorpe Award finalist leads the nation with eight interceptions to go along with 82 tackles and four sacks with four forced fumbles.

Re: CFN Prediction: Fresno St 48 - SMU 24
I'm not so sure Fresno St. walks all over us. They have played an easier schedule. We had a pretty brutal schedule with Baylor, A&M and TCU out of conference. Baylor and A&M both beat the #1 team in the country at one point. TCU also turned out to be a pretty good team. Don't get fooled by stats, etc. Fresno St. should be favored but I will probably take SMU and the points on this one. It would not surprise me if we win this game either.

Harry beat me to it. I was going to post this as well. I completely agree with prediction. It's hard to agree any of the points.
