The AI verdict
SMU is the lean at home, where the Mustangs have been unbeaten and Kevin Jennings has been carving up opposing secondaries. Virginia Tech's rest advantage and pressure keep it close, but the passing matchup favors the Mustangs.
- Kevin Jennings is completing roughly three of every four passes for more than 2,400 yards and 21 touchdowns.
- SMU is unbeaten at Ford Stadium this season, outscoring home opponents by a wide margin.
- Virginia Tech has not lost by more than five points this season and comes in off 13 days of rest.
- The Hokies' offensive line has multiple reported absences, and their run game has been inefficient.
- SMU's ground game was limited at Syracuse, so the Mustangs win through the air.

Synthesis
Both teams are 6-2. The search results confirm the Friday night kickoff in Dallas and show Virginia Tech listed with players out on the ACC availability report. The listing I saw did not give full names or statuses. I am not adding any quarterback concerns beyond that.
Where the experts agree
- Kevin Jennings against a leaky pass defense. Virginia Tech's run defense is strong, but it gives up deep completions through the air.
- SMU at home. The Mustangs are 5-0 at Ford Stadium and have outscored those opponents 197-83.
- A limited SMU ground game. Raphael managed only 51 yards at Syracuse, so SMU wins through the air.
Where they disagree, and how I resolved it
The disagreement is over the margin, with predicted scores ranging from a 4-point to a 10-point SMU win. Three models took Virginia Tech plus the points, and two took SMU laying the points.
