UNIVERSITY PARK — Quarterback Tanner Mordecai tied the record for most touchdowns by an SMU player with nine touchdowns against Houston in Dallas on Saturday.
For the first 22 minutes of the game, visiting University of Houston played toe-to-toe with SMU in what seemed to be the last ever conference game between these two at the Gerald Ford Stadium.
But on a free-scoring night where everything seemed to be going swimmingly for both offences, two key defensive plays made the difference, and ensured a victory for the Mustangs.

“I have never seen anything like that before,” SMU head coach Rhett Lashlee said after the game.
