<p>If the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-football/teams/smu-mustangs">SMU Mustangs</a> want to get out of the month of September with a win on their record, their second game against Steven F. Austin will be their best chance to get one. With games against tough competition including Texas A&M and Texas Christian University coming up, the FCS competition will give them the best shot.</p>
<p><a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-football/players/135294/zach-line">Zach Line</a> will be the man to watch for the Mustangs. The running back put together 135 yards against Baylor in SMU's opening contest and has rushed for 100-plus yards 16 times in his college football career.</p>
<p>This will be the second ever meeting between the two schools. SMU took a victory in the first meeting, the opening game of the 2009 season.</p>
<p><b>Game time, TV channel:</b> 8 p.m. ET, Time Warner Texas</p>

<p>SMU won't have much time to shake off their poor showing in Waco, as they host an FCS school before games against Texas A&M and TCU.</p> <p>The start of the 2012 season didn't go exactly as planned for SMU, who were whipped all over the field in a 59-24 loss to Baylor on Sunday.</p>
<p>However, with home game against Texas A&M and TCU still to come in the month of September, the Mustangs don't have much time to feel sorry for themselves. As a result, their second-week home game this Saturday against FCS school Stephen F. Austin is their only game this month where they'll be expected to win.</p>
<p>Garrett Gilbert, the former UT QB, was inconsistent in his first game in June Jones offense, but he also showed flashes of the talent that made him the most highly-touted QB in the country coming out of college. Gilbert completed 34-59 passes for 286 yards, 2 TD's and 2 INT's against the Bears.</p>
<p>The Mustangs WR's struggled to get open against the bigger and more athletic Baylor defense, so we may see a bigger role for true freshman WR Gehrig Dietr, who had 3 catches for 64 yards and 1 TD late in the game.</p>
