Texas State vs. SMU updates: Live NCAA Football game scores, results for Saturday

Live scores, highlights and updates from the Texas State vs. SMU football game

The Texas State Bobcats and the SMU Mustangs are opening their 2020 seasons against one another at 4:30 p.m. ET on Saturday at Jim Wacker Field at Bobcat Stadium. Coming off of an uninspired 3-9 last-season record, Texas State has set their aspirations higher this year. On the other hand, SMU finished a solid 10-2 in the regular season last season, but they are hoping to make up for a 52-28 loss to the Florida Atlantic Owls in the Boca Raton Bowl.

A couple last-season offensive stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: The Bobcats ranked fourth worst in the nation with respect to rushing touchdowns last season, where the squad accrued only eight. To make matters even worse for Texas State, SMU was seventh best in the nation in overall offensive touchdowns, finishing the 2019 season with 70. So the Texas State squad has its work cut out for it.

The Texas State sideline is surely aware that they're the underdogs in this one. Perhaps they'll be able to flip the script and come out with a big win.
