The USF Bulls (1-3), coming off a spirited performance at nationally ranked BYU, will face another mighty challenge on Saturday afternoon (ESPNU, 4 p.m.) when they begin the American Athletic Conference slate in Dallas against the unbeaten SMU Mustangs (4-0).
Watching from USF's Provo, Utah hotel prior to facing BYU, Scott joked that he had seen enough after some real-time viewing of SMU's 42-34 victory over TCU in the annual Iron Skillet Rivalry game last Saturday. "I had to switch the channel and watch something else,'' Scott said.
SMU again showed that it's a formidable program. Quarterback Tanner Mordecai threw four touchdown passes, giving him an FBS-leading 20 through four games.
