    SMU vs Florida State Preview: Can the Mustangs Expose the Seminoles? | Mustang Mood Podcast

    SMU football is finally back, and the Mustangs open the season Monday night against Florida State in a huge ACC matchup in Tallahassee. Jay, George, and Yonnic break down everything you need to know about SMU vs. Florida State, including the Seminoles' Week 0 performance against New Mexico State, the Mike Norvell hot-seat conversation, Florida State's dangerous running game, and the biggest questions surrounding both teams heading into Week 1. The guys discuss whether SMU's offense can take advantage of Florida State's defense, how Kevin Jennings and the Mustang skill-position group match up against the Seminoles, and whether SMU's revamped defensive line and secondary can slow down Florida State's rushing attack. Plus, the crew gives their official score predictions, including one prediction that has Florida State pulling off the upset, while Ben shares his film-based breakdown of the Seminoles after watching their entire game against New Mexico State. Is Florida State actually as dangerous as their talent suggests? Can SMU start fast in a hostile Tallahassee environment? And what happens if the Seminoles struggle again on Monday night? SMU vs. Florida State is finally here. Pony up. #SMU #SMUFootball #FloridaState #FSU #FloridaStateFootball #ACCFootball #CollegeFootball Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

    SMU Football 2026 Season Preview: Can the Mustangs Make Another CFP Run? | Mustang Mood

    Visit https://www.ponchooutdoors.com/mustangmood to get the most comfortable, useful, and stylish SMU shirt this season! SMU football is back, and The Mustang Mood is looking ahead to the 2026 season with one big question: can the Mustangs make another run at the College Football Playoff? SMU enters the season ranked No. 20 in the coaches poll and once again has its sights set on the top of the ACC. The crew breaks down the 2026 roster, Kevin Jennings entering his third season as SMU's starting quarterback, the revamped skill positions, the offensive line, and the biggest questions facing a retooled defense. Can Kevin Jennings take the next step and put himself in the Heisman conversation? Will SMU's young receivers and new additions on defense provide enough production? And does this roster have what it takes to compete with the best teams on the schedule? The crew also goes game by game through the 2026 SMU football schedule, including Florida State, Louisville, Cal, Virginia Tech, Wake Forest and the massive road matchup at Notre Dame. After reaching the College Football Playoff in 2024, can SMU get back to the CFP in 2026 and make an even deeper run? The season is almost here, and the Mustangs have much bigger goals than simply competing for the ACC. #SMU #SMUFootball #CollegeFootball #CollegeFootballPlayoff #ACC Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
