One of the biggest games of the season for the Mustangs could be against a team that kept them out of bowl contention two seasons ago.
SMU last season won 10 games for the first time in 35 years. That season always will be memorable.
But there are members of the current SMU roster who still remember the 2018 season. It was one where the Mustangs needed a win in their regular-season finale on the road against Tulsa to earn bowl eligibility.
