SMU a 3 Point Underdog Against Memphis

Postby Stallion » Sun Oct 13, 2013 1:36 pm

a team we beat 42-0 last time in Memphis.
I'm a little surprised-basically they are say its a push on neutral field

I'm worried, not real sure June is even preparing a game plan. Not ready to panic, but concerned.

SMU No. 94 in Sagarin and Memphis is No. 102
But any advantage would be erased by home field advantage which is calculated at 3.69

Maybe the oddsmakers gave Memphis a little bump after the Tigers gave UCF all it wanted.Supposedly Memphis is better. We'll see Saturday.

Memphis is improving rapidly under their new coach. They will be a tough game. I would not be surprised to see them favored or it being a pickem.

The above is what I posted last week. Anyone who has paid attention should have seen this coming.

I don't mean this as a slap at Memphis whatsoever, but if Memphis beats SMU then it's time for Coach Jones to step down (immediately). That means no bowl (though not officially) and the best thing for SMU would be to start building towards the future now (as opposed the end of the season).
Pony up!

UCF was coming off an emotional tough loss the South Carolina. So they were down a bit. Did the oddsmakers not see the Houston game?

Every team we played this year had one or two of its key players out for our game. The week is still young.

they have a young explosive RB that apparently threw a punch at one of the coaches-could be benched

Hope it's not a field goal slugfest unless we win.

That's for certain! For SMU to even be a dog to a program like Memphis in Junes 6th year is a true indicator of his underachieving recruiting and outdated coaching philosophy.
