The SMU Mustangs will take on the Virginia Cavaliers on November 23, 2024, at 12:00 pm EST. The DraftKings Sportsbook odds have the Virginia Cavaliers as 9.5 point underdogs going into this ACC matchup. The total for the game is set at 58 points. It will be an exciting matchup to watch as both teams look to secure a victory. Here, we give you our best bet for SMU vs Virginia, in a game with huge ACC championship implications.
Can SMU Stay Perfect In ACC Play?
The SMU Mustangs are on the doorstep of qualifying for the ACC championship game this season. All they need to do is continue winning and they will be one of the two teams playing for the conference title in their first season as members of the ACC. This week, SMU will look to stay unbeaten in conference play, behind an offense that has averaged 43 points per game over its last two games. But they will need to be careful against a desperate Virginia team looking to extend its season with a win this weekend.
Virginia Looks to Become Bowl-Eligible
The Virginia Cavaliers are 5-5 on the season coming into this weekend and 3-3 in the ACC. They need a win either this week or next week against Virginia Tech to get to six wins and to become bowl-eligible. The question is whether Virginia can shake off their horrid form of late to get that win. The Cavaliers have lost four of their last five games, including home games to Louisville and North Carolina over that stretch, and are now in danger of missing out on bowl season entirely if they can't cash in on their final home game of the season here.
SMU vs Virginia Best Bet
We know that Virginia will give everything they have in this SMU vs Virginia matchup in an attempt to get themselves somewhere into the bowl schedule. While that likely won't be enough for them to win this game, we do think it will be enough for them to keep the margin within single-digits. We are going to take the points with Virginia in this matchup, as their desperation and the pressure on SMU to keep winning football games could combine to make this game interesting down the stretch.
