  Last season was a weird one for McBryde, who joined the team toward the end of training camp. Then, in the fourth game of the season, he was moved into a starter's role when Richard Moore went out with a season-ending injury. He ended up leading the team with 98 tackles, anchoring the defense in the middle of the field. The Auburn transfer got a sixth year of eligibility, and could theoretically come back for a seventh next season. - Dallas Morning News

  Shane Buechele threw for 367 yards and a touchdown and SMU held on despite two second-half turnovers to win its first game at Texas State, 31-24 on Saturday in the season opener for both teams. Buechele threw a 51-yard touchdown pass to Reggie Roberson Jr. in the third quarter that gave the Mustangs the lead for good, 24-21 late in the third quarter. TJ McDaniel ran for 130 yards and a 9-yard touchdown early in the third quarter for the Mustangs. Ulysses Bentley IV had two touchdown runs from 6 and 12 yards in the second quarter and finished with 49 yards rushing. Roberson finished with six catches for 99 yards. Rashee Rice added five catches for 101 yards for the Mustangs.

Brady McBride was 21-of-39 passing for 227 yards and two touchdowns in his first start at Texas State. McBride tossed a 3-yard TD pass Jeremiah Haydel, who made a spectacular one-handed diving catch in the corner of the end zone in the second quarter. The Bobcats played without tight ends due to quarantine restrictions and had offensive linemen fill the position. Calvin Hill ran for 100 yards and Brock Sturges added 95 yards rushing and a 4-yard touchdown run for Texas State. - SMU/AP College Football

  Gray flipped to SMU from TCU on the early signing day in December, and he appears to be shaping up to be the go-to guy on a roster looking for someone to fill the shoes of James Proche. "The guy that's kind of been the most solid player this entire fall camp has been Danny Gray," Dykes said. Danny's going to have a great year, he's just a really uniquely talented football player, works incredibly hard. "[He's] probably the fastest college football player I've ever seen." Gray is a transfer from Blinn College, and he attended Madison High School in Dallas. There's plenty of good wide receivers returning in Reggie Roberson Jr., Rashee Rice, Keke Burns, Austin Upshaw and Calvin Wiggins. - Dallas Morning News

  When Justin Osborne left Auburn and entered the transfer portal in early August, it was because he wanted to be closer to home. With the threat of COVID-19, and his father raising Justin's 16-year-old sister on his own, he didn't like the idea of being a 10.5-hour car ride away from Dallas. What the new SMU offensive lineman didn't know when he made the decision to transfer was just how seriously COVID-19 would impact his family, just days after returning home.

His father, Bob Osborne, a truck driver, contracted the disease. Justin would take care of his father - them both wearing masks. But it got to the point where Bob's breathing was so heavily impacted that he was hospitalized about 10 days ago. "I was praying and hoping that he could pull through it and get better soon," Justin said. "...Me and him have a real close relationship, and I'm always going to be there for him just like he's always going to be there for me. "If he needed something, I'm right there with it." - Dallas Morning News

Calcaterra earned his bachelor's degree last spring and was honored during Senior Night activities. He finished with 14 starts in 33 games. He caught 41 passes for 637 yards and nine touchdowns.
