DALLAS – The SMU Mustangs are looking to build off of their incredibly impressive debut in the ACC, and several of their preseason betting odds have been cut compared to where they opened last season.

SMU College Football Odds 2025-26

  • National Championship: +10000
  • ACC Championship: +950
  • Regular Season Win Total: 8.5
  • Odds To Make CFP: +320
  • Kevin Jennings Heisman Odds: +5000

SMU finished their first season at the Power 5 level in the ACC, going 11-3, which includes a loss in the ACC Championship game and a loss in the first round of the college football playoff. They also finished the season ranked inside the top-10 at the #10 spot. With their success in their inaugural season in the ACC, all of their preseason odds from last season to this season have been sliced.

Their odds to win the National Championship come in at +10000, which are their lowest preseason odds in history. Also, their ACC Championship odds went from +1200 before last season to +950 ahead of the 2024-25 season.

Looking at their season long props, their regular season win total remains at 8.5 now for the third straight season, and they’ve hit the over in each of the last two years. They’ve gone over their projected win total on online sportsbooks in the last four seasons.

As for their odds to make the playoffs, the fact that they have preseason odds is already a step forward, as they did not have playoff odds listed in the preseason last year.

SMU has just one Heisman winner history, which came way back in 1948 with the legendary Doak Walker. Kevin Jennings finished last season throwing for 3,245 yards, 23 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions. He also rushed for 354 yards and five touchdowns.
