SMU Opens -13.5 over Syracuse

[FloridaCuse]

It is now up to -15.5. Total is 57.5

Definitely accurate unfortunately

The spread is irrelevant to me for this one. I’m just interested to see if we’ll be able to put a touchdown on the board.

Take SMU.

Take SMU.

Apparently people are. That's why the line is going up. Now at 16.5 on at least one site.

Honestly, beating Clemson I think got a bit of ego into some of the Orange (football team) heads, and thinking that the rest of the year is going to go well. I am hoping they learn and get going on fixing stupid mistakes like penalties which kills an offense or defense likewise. With that in mind, we all know some other things needs to be addressed, but I'm betting it may be a better performance than last week at Duke, which I think was a winnable game, and should have been alot closer in spread.

This will sound weird - probably because it is - but that opening line is encouraging.

Or our star starting QB is out for the season + the backup had a horrific start.

Don't disagree, but thats been about every year other than 2-3 in the last 10+ I can remember when they were not injured at least once. McCord was great, but too bad it wasn't for more than a year. I think we will do better at SMU as Duke was a kick in the butt some needed to get out of the midset that winning over Clemson gave them thinking there unbeatable.

It's now SMU -16.5 on almost all sites. Total 58.5.

Its gonna be like watching the rodeo, and sadly there is a new event - orange tie down roping lol

Fran has never lost 2 in a row. And if for some crazy reason we do lose, it’ll be by less than 16.5

Smu by 4 touchdowns

I can see that…if we get behind early by 10 or so should you tune in elsewhere for your own mental health

2026, pain = gain

Only good reason I have is that Rhett Lashlee is likely Arkansas number one target for HC. So if he loses focus this week that would be a factor.

Along those lines... as much as I am disappointed by Saturday, and wrapping my head around Rickie Collins likely [based upon that performance] not being a guy who can sustain the offense we saw under McCord / Angeli, 2025 will likely be a struggle that dampens some of Fran's attractiveness to other programs.

Another week Rickie practicing with the One's should help.

right?

Not only is this a loser mindset to have, but it’s only applicable if you don’t buy Fran’s authenticity and take him at his word that he wants to build a northeast program and stay until his daughter is older. I trust Fran
