SMU Mustangs vs. Tulane Green Wave Betting Odds, Prop Bets

SMU was trending towards -7 while some books still had the line at -6.5 versus Tulane.

The No. 17 Mustangs (4-0, 1-0 AAC) will visit the Green Wave (2-2, 0-2) on Friday night.

SMU, which didn't play last week, signaled its contender status when it defeated defending conference champion Memphis 30-27 two weeks ago.

Quarterback Shane Buechele, who is 14-3 as the starter since transferring from Texas, completed 32 of 46 passes for 474 yards and three touchdowns against Memphis. For the season, he has completed 68.6 percent of his passes for 1,326 yards with 10 touchdowns and two interceptions.

"He has played exceptionally well," Mustangs coach Sonny Dykes said. "I think he has a really high ceiling. He's just getting better and better and more comfortable all the time."

The Mustangs lost two key offensive weapons to injuries against Memphis. Wide receiver Reggie Roberson Jr. had five catches for 243 yards, including touchdowns of 70 and 85 yards, before sustaining a serious knee injury.

Starting running back TJ McDaniel was lost to an ankle injury on the first play of the game.

Dykes said Monday that both players will require surgery and miss the rest of the season.
