In case you are like me and just sort of lumped SMU into G5 obscurity with the likes of Memphis and Houston, they are currently one of only four FBS teams ranked in the Top 15 in both offensive and defensive efficiency. They had 52 pts against Tulsa at halftime yesterday, a feat they also accomplished against Houston last year. They don't have that marquee win recently (though they did come close against national runner up TCU last season), but appear to be on the rise. If their recruiting gets a bump by virtue of joining the ACC, I wouldn't be surprised to see them in the ACCCG soon.
