East Texas University (Savage Worlds)

Looking to start up a Tuesday night game (7PM EST) of East Texas University. For those not familiar with the setting, the players are college students attending East Texas University where strange and paranormal things happen all the time, basically it's Buffy the Vampire Slayer in college. The system is Savage Worlds. If you aren't familiar with it don't worry, it's a fast and easy system to pick up.
I think Savage Worlds is based off of Apocalypse World, which is also the basis for MonsterHearts (which is, for lack of better words, Buffy with more hormones, so I'm seeing a pattern here). I've played MonsterHearts, though, so I know the basic idea of the system, albeit a slightly simplified version, I believe. Still, I don't think that there's a huge difference between them.
I know Savage Worlds was built out of the engine used for the Original Deadlands, however I do think Apocalypse world was made my a good bit of the same people. Here's a video that breaks down most of the game's mechanics if you are interested. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=89MCj6o7Tno" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=89MCj6o7Tno</a>
