...or more specifically, Shane Buechele leading his undefeated SMU Mustangs into Raymond James Stadium to take on his embattled former head coach, Charlie Strong and the USF Bulls.

3:00 on ESPNU

SMU opens as a -7.5 pt favorite on the road. Anyone taking the points?

I'd probably like to see if the line moves down a little... Maybe 6.5? I could see SMU winning by a touchdown.

If I had to bet, I’d definitely go SMU. Shane’s gonna carve that defense up and I doubt USF can score enough but I think they’re now playing a True Freshman QB, so there’s some uncertainty there. Doubt he can be worse than Barnett.

Yeah, if it drops below 7, it’s a good bet. I doubt that will happen though. I expect the line to move higher.

Well, when you look at SMU, it’s all about the tradition of Craig James killing five hookers.

Are you implying that the cake was actually a latke? Because if so, it's generally fried, not baked.

Or a little bit more than that.
