"Florida Atlantic: Howard Schnellenberger (allegedly) had some big words for Texas, and now his team has to march into Darryl K. Royal and back up their coach's words. Will they do it? I like the Owls chances."

Florida Atlantic -24

That's right. I believe Texas is not a physically tough team. OK, that's not true, but I do think Florida Atlantic is undervalued at -24.

Two weeks ago, I would have given FAU a chance to actually win this game, but head coach Howard Schnellenberger had to talk trash. It might inspire his team, but I guarantee it just ticked Texas off.

"Still you have to like Florida Atlantic for two reasons: Rusty Smith and Cortez Gent, the most underrated quarterback/wide receiver duo in the country. FAU returns 10 offensive players from last year's 8-5 team, a team that scored 20 points on Florida. With Texas' young secondary, Smith will have a 300-yard day and no more than a 10-point loss.

I mean, come on, Arkansas State almost beat the Longhorns in last season's opener and the Red Wolves (then Indians) finished the year 5-7.

Mark it down."
