Mustangs move past Navy Midshipmen to the AAC Championship

SMU football secured a spot in the AAC Championship with a 59-14 victory over the Navy Midshipmen.

The game was full of surprises including a muffed punt recovery by long snapper Will Benton IV that caught the attention of national media over the weekend.

Starting quarterback Preston Stone sustained a season-ending injury late in the second quarter. Head coach Rhett Lashlee confirmed Monday that Stone has a broken leg and Kevin Jennings will take his place in the next game.

The Mustangs will take on the Tulane Green Wave in the title match on Saturday, Dec.
