Told myself I wouldn't touch this AAC game unless the spread dropped under 14. Well, here we are. Per usual under Coach Sonny Dykes, SMU is among the top offensive teams in the country -- this year with Oklahoma transfer Tanner Mordecai at QB -- while Tulane is just god-awful on defense in allowing more than 40 points per. The Mustangs should get to 48 at home, and I don’t see the Green Wave scoring 35 to cover because they haven’t scored more than 29 in their past four. The SportsLine Projection Model has SMU winning by 20. ESPN's SP+ has SMU 14 points better, so I feel pretty good at -13.5.
