SMU had high expectations for coach Chad Morris' third year at the helm and the Mustangs have covered the spread their first three games and won the first two outright over Stephen F. Austin and North Texas before losing at TCU while covering as a 22-point underdog. The Mustangs have averaged 49.3 points this season as they return nine starters on offense, including four on the offensive line. Quarterback Ben Hicks has thrown for 729 yards and eight touchdowns with three interceptions and his team is averaging 473.7 yards of offense. Arkansas State defeated FCS Arkansas-Pine Bluff 48-3, but lost 43-36 to Nebraska in its opener. The Red Wolves return only four defensive starters and the Cornhuskers rushed for 225 yards on 5.9 yards per carry. Arkansas State QB Justice Hansen threw 68 times while completing 46 while being intercepted twice against Nebraska so SMU knows what's coming. The Mustangs are a small favorite in this matchup, but go with SMU on the moneyline.
