This is an 8* SPECIAL on TCU.

A couple of undefeated teams go head-to-head here, but after its thrilling last-second hail-mary victory last week, I think that SMU will stumble here in this difficult road venue.

This is the 100th edition of the fight for the "Iron Skillet" and I don't think the home side will take that for granted.

As I mentioned, SMU is off a wild 39-37 win over Louisiana Tech last weekend to move to 3-0, with Tanner Mordecai hitting Reggie Roberson from 33 yards out on the hail mary.

SMU is piling up points against bad teams, but it's also allowing a plethora of points as well.

SMU comes out of its by week after beating California two weeks ago. Max Duggan was 17 of 31 for 234 yards, three TD's and one INT. The offense and defense look sharp for the Horned Frogs and I just can't see SMU keeping pace down the stretch.

TCU's improve passing game and its superior defense turn out to be the difference in the end here.

Lay the points.

Good luck, NP
