Here are five things for SMU fans to know about Arkansas State before Saturday's game, at 6 p.m. on ESPN3.
1. Fared. Arkansas State, which is coming off its third straight bowl season under head coach Blake Anderson, started 2017 1-1. The Red Wolves fought hard in their season opener on the road against Nebraska. They were within seven points before an overthrow on the game's final play killed their dreams of an upset, falling to Nebraska 43-36. Arkansas State's Week 2 game against Miami was cancelled due to Hurricane Irma, then ASU deconstructed Arkansas-Pine Bluff 48-3.
