  Brandon Crossley ended the first overtime possession with an interception and Chris Naggar made a 34-yard field goal to give No. 17 SMU a 37-34 victory over Tulane on Friday night. Crossley intercepted Tulane freshman Michael Pratt's pass to put the Mustangs (5-0, 3-0 American Athletic) in position to win with the field goal. SMU is 5-0 for the second straight season, a feat it last accomplished in 1983. The Green Wave (2-3, 0-3) rallied to force overtime on Merek Glover's 27-yard field goal with 1:30 left. "We went blow for blow with them," Tulane coach Willie Fritz said. "Unfortunately, they get the last one in. I saw a lot of good things from our guys. Really was impressed with the way we battled and fought back." After Tulane took a 31-27 lead early in the fourth quarter on Pratt's 7-yard touchdown, the Mustangs pulled ahead 34-31 lead on Shane Buechele's 10-yard pass to Danny Gray. Buechele completed 23 of 37 passes for 384 yards and two touchdowns. He entered the game second nationally in passing yards. Rashee Rice had seven receptions for 139 yards and a touchdown, and Gray added five catches for 133 yards and a touchdown and had a 32-yard scoring run. Ulysses Bentley ran for 94 yards and a touchdown on 25 carries. - SMU/AP College Football

  SMU will not have wide receiver Reggie Roberson Jr. and running back TJ McDaniel for the rest of the season, head coach Sonny Dykes confirmed during his media availability Monday. Both Roberson Jr. and McDaniel will have surgery, Dykes said. Roberson appeared to injure his left knee during the third quarter of SMU’s 30-27 win over Memphis on Oct. 3. McDaniel appeared to suffer a lower-leg injury on the first play of that game. Both players were starters and huge pieces for the Mustangs. It is the second straight season-ending injury for Roberson Jr., who missed the final six games with a foot injury last year. Roberson Jr. had 22 receptions for 474 yards and five touchdowns thus far in 2020. McDaniel, in his first season as a starter with a real chance to prove himself, was having a strong start to the campaign. He had 303 yards on the ground with his 60 carries and a touchdown. An NFL prospect, Roberson Jr. still has eligibility remaining for next season, should he choose to come back. It’s unclear what his timeline for a return is and if he’d be healthy enough to participate in pre-draft workouts. - The Dallas Morning News

  Roberson Jr. left in the third quarter of Saturday's game after suffering a non-contact injury to his left knee. Roberson Jr. is SMU's most dynamic receiver. That was evidenced by his 243-yard performance on Saturday before the injury. This will leave the Mustangs needing players like Rashee Rice and Danny Gray - receivers that both struggled on Saturday - to step up in his absence. Roberson Jr. is regarded as an NFL prospect, and probably could have entered the draft after last season. It is unclear how long he will be sidelined, or if this injury will impact his decision to return to SMU, or enter the draft.

This could potentially be the second-straight season-ending injury for Roberson Jr. He missed the final six games of the 2019 campaign after suffering a foot injury in the first quarter of the Mustangs' win over Houston in October. Roberson Jr. left West Virginia after his freshman season in 2017. He has 2,079 receiving yards at SMU, including 474 this season. He has 17 total touchdowns, including five this season. He was averaging 21.5 yards per catch before the injury. - Dallas Morning News

  Reggie Roberson Jr. became the first SMU receiver to total more than 200 yards receiving in a game, catching five balls for 243 in a 30-27 win over Memphis. The senior is among five receivers in the nation since 2015 to go over 200 yards on so few catches. Highlighting his day were touchdowns of 85 and 70 yards. The man throwing to Roberson was Shane Buechele, who passed for a career-high 474 yards and three TDs and had a career-high 501 yards of total offense. Roberson's other 200-yard receiving game was last season, when he had 250 against Arkansas State. - AP College Football

  Chris Naggar kicked a 43-yard field goal with nine seconds left and SMU beat No. 25 Memphis 30-27 on Saturday, after the Mustangs blew an early three-touchdown lead against a team playing its first game in four weeks. Memphis (1-1), which because of COVID-19 issues hadn't played since winning its opener Sept. 5, was driving for a potential go-ahead score when Brady White was sacked and fumbled with 1:25 left. That set up the final drive for SMU (4-0), which never trailed. Shane Buechele was 32-of-45 passing for 474 yards and three touchdowns. That included catch-and-run scores of 70 and 85 yards to Reggie Roberson before the star receiver left the game with an apparent left knee injury late in the third.

Roberson finished with five catches for 243 yards. White was 29-of-42 for 380 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions. Damonte Coxie had eight catches for 169 yards. Memphis last played a month agao against Arkansas State. The Tigers didn't play their next two scheduled games and had an 11-day gap without practicing because of positive COVID-19 tests in the program. SMU had a 24-3 led after Roberson's 85-yard score early in the second quarter. Buechele stepped up in the pocket and hit Roberson near the 25, where the receiver made a defender miss and then took off down the sideline. - SMU/AP College Football

  Reggie Roberson Jr. had quite literally just made another spectacular leaping catch. He came down, tried to get the defender to miss. Then, seemingly without contact, he crumple to the ground. SMU’s top receiver was tended to by trainers. Then he came out of the game, being assisted off the field. Roberson was having his best game of the season, and arguably his best game in an SMU uniform. He had 243 yards in the air, including a 70-yard and 80-yard touchdown. He probably would have had more on that catch, had he not been hurt. - Dallas Morning News

  SMU got a boost to its receiving corps on Wednesday when T.Q. Jackson announced via Twitter that his waiver to play immediately was approved by the NCAA. Jackson, a redshirt freshman, played in three games for the Arkansas Razorbacks last season, thus preserving his eligibility. He transferred to SMU in the offseason. Jackson is from Jefferson, Texas, and had one catch last season. He hasn't been eligible to play in the first three games for SMU in 2020. He was a four-star recruit coming out of Jefferson High School and had a host of Power Five offers, according to 247Sports. He was rated as the No. 45 wide receiver in the nation by the recruiting service for the Class of 2019. - Dallas Morning News

The teams combined for 1,200 total yards, including 710 by SMU. UNT (1-1) went three-and-out five times, failed two convert to fourth downs and committed two turnovers. - AP College/SMU Football
