Texas A&M-CC Islanders vs. SMU Mustangs Prediction
I’m on SMU here. I just think SMU is the better team here and they really showed me something in that win over Tarleton and I do like the direction SMU is headed this season. Texas A&M-CC is a solid Southland team, but they struggled in a lot of these step-up spots last year and I think they could struggle here too. Give me SMU here.
