SMU has only played three times at UNT. Still looking for first win up there.

Yeah we also got beat pretty bad at Texas Stadium in 1977 24-13 when Lil'Joe Washington's brother Kenny was QB for the Mean Green under Hayden Fry Its listed as a neutral game but really wasn't because North Texas played half its home games at Texas Stadium that season while SMU was playing its last season at the Cotton Bowl. They had about 3 times more fans than SMU. That was a damn good football team Hayden put together.

SMU would be a 8.3 point favorite based on LY final Sagarin ratings, however SMU could/should be a bargain at that.
SMU returns 16 starters (including the QB). UNT returns 15 starters sans the QB and with a new coach. Bill Connelly projects that SMU's 16 returning starters are worth a whopping 5.4 PPG improvement and predicts that UNT's returning 15 starters are actually worth -.4 PPG. He bases this on SMU returning 97% of its offensive production and 65% of its defensive production while UNT returns 42% of its offensive production and 76% of its defensive production.
The line probably closes at 9.5 - 10, but it could be argued that it should be higher.

Does that mean our 45.67 points against per game will go down 35%?

I really enjoy it so far. I am an astrophysics nerd so just a space game of this magnitude is just unreal. Also I appreciate it for what the programmers were able to pull off. Unreal.
I understand the "meh" group but they need to give it more than a few days. Its slow developing.
