20-14 SMU

[PonyPride]

Mustangs crashing the boards ... or in the case of Feron Hunt, crashing through the front row of fans chasing (and saving) a loose ball. Hunt went all the way over the first row, head to the floor, and was helped up by fans.

SMU 25, Jacksonville State 17

Defense looks more active so far - probably true, given the need to manage minutes last year.
