I think FAU will come up just short.
SMU wins 34-30

1. FAU wins 41-38, but FAU’s defense plays fine. SMU’s offense is just so good and I think they get some luck and short drives. Almost like Ball State.
2. Just like against UAB and FIU, it’s the Malcolm Davidson and DeAngelo Antoine show. Davidson needs 268 rushing yards to hit 1,000 and Antoine needs 229 for 1,000. Will either hit them? Don’t know. Will they both have big games? Yes.
3. Davidson scores twice and Antoine scores once. I’ll take John Raine adding the fourth touchdown and BJ Emmons the fifth.
4. Robison and Buechele have a Texas-sized duel. It’s the last game of the year, give me my cliches. Robison plays alright but makes the throws he needs to.
5. The game turns out to be a thriller that goes under the radar because it’s up against an NFL triple-header and other bowl games. That might not be a fearless prediction so much as a good bet given everything we know. Add in the threat of poor weather…well, it’s better than 3-9.

Too much going on with the team right now between Lane leaving and and Taggert coming in. I just don’t think we’ll be at our best. 42-31 SMUPosted On: Dec 19th 2019, 7:19 AM #392433
Im not worried about the players but Charlie will be calling the plays by himself. Its going to be a windy game so deep passes may not be as desirable as everyone thinks. If our running game isnt firing on all cylinders its gonna be a long afternoon.

Passing game even more important to SMU so if that is the case then…..

We have a chance to look good against a quality opponent on ABC - so that feels like a win as long as we show up and play.
