SMU at TCU

SMU has gotten off to a very quick start at 9-1 and they will square off with a TCU team that at 7-3. They have already won more games than they did all last year. Defense is the calling card for both these teams as SMU has allowed teams to shoot under 40% while TCU has held opponents to 40%. Neither of these teams put points on the board at a rapid rate, so this has all the ear-marks for a tight low scoring game. SMU has created some defensive stats vs. some very poor teams along the way, and this will be a bigger challenge especially playing on the road. It looks like the way to go in this one is to get 3 possessions worth of points, in a game that could be undecided coming down the wire.
