What's on the line?
For SMU, this is about starting the season on the right foot. A win is expected but you don't want to struggle against an FCS school to start the season. SMU needs to learn which of its young players it can trust to perform in game action. Jumping to a quick lead gives head coach Chad Morris a chance to put different players into different situations to test their ability.
