No one truly knows where SMU is headed for its bowl, but here are projections from 10 national media outlets. Half of them agree on one bowl in particular.
The College Football Playoff selection show will kick off at 11 a.m. CT Sunday on ESPN. The New Year Six bowl game pairings are set to be revealed at 2 p.m. CT, and the rest of the bowl slate is expected to follow.
By 2:30 p.m. CT, SMU should know its bowl destination. As of Saturday afternoon, it's merely speculation -- even from within the SMU football offices. Don't buy into the idea that insiders know where their teams are going to play; no one knows.
Consider the process similar to how college basketball selection processes are run -- a lot of projections, but no facts until the show starts.
