Ricky's 1* play on TUL.

Key Angle: It's important to remember that Ricky never makes a bet on any game based on just one angle. In order to make the grade, all his premium picks must meet several important criteria. He doesn't share all his secrets within his analysis, instead he chooses to reveal only the angle that he feels is the most significant. Here in this game the recent history of these two teams is particularly significant.

- SMU starting QB Preston Stone out with a broken leg.

- Tulane are 10-0 SU in their last 10 games, and 8-2 ATS in their last 10 in Week 14.

- Tulane ranks 1st in the AAC vs the run allowing just 3 yards per carry.

Verdict: The Value is on the home favorite.
