11/26/22 - Brandon Crossley, rSr/2025, Southern Methodist, 5-10, 186 (DS#88 CB) + More +

Brandon Crossley picked off a Seth Henigan pass in the back of the end zone with two seconds left to preserve SMU's 34-31 win over Memphis Saturday in the regular-season finale for both schools. Henigan drove the Tigers 76 yards to set up second-and-goal at the SMU 9 with 14 seconds left, needing only a field goal to send the game into overtime. He rolled to his left and floated a pass intended for a receiver streaking along the end line only to have Crossley make a leaping interception. Tanner Mordecai fired 24 yards to Rashee Rice early in the fourth quarter, then drove the Mustangs 66 yards in 12 plays to set up Collin Rogers' 23-yard field goal to take a 34-23 lead. But Henigan answered by hitting Roc Taylor from 7-yards out, then finding Gabriel Rogers for a two-point conversion to pull Memphis within 34-31 with 2:36 left in the game.

SMU's Austin Upshaw pounced on the on-sides kick, but the Mustangs could not make a first down and punted, giving the Tigers the ball at their own 16. Mordecai was 22 of 30 for 228 yards and two touchdowns and Tyler Lavine carried it 25 times for 64 yards and two scores to lead SMU (7-5, 5-3 American Athletic Conference). Rice caught 13 passes for 147 yards. Henigan was 27 of 44 for 287 yards and a touchdown, with Javon Ivory catching six for 98 yards for Memphis (6-6, 3-5). Jevyon Ducker carried 10 times for 81 yards. SMU won for just the fifth time in 15 meetings with Memphis. Since both teams joined the AAC, the Tigers lead the series 7-3. - SMU/AP College Football

Preston Stone passed to Rashee Rice for a 75-yard touchdown on the first play from scrimmage and SMU never trailed in a 45-34 victory over Tulsa on Saturday. Tyler Lavine followed with the first of his three short touchdown runs on the day and SMU (4-4, 2-2 American Athletic Conference) led 14-0 before the game was five minutes old. Lavine's second scoring run helped the Mustangs take a 24-7 lead at halftime. Elijah Chapman scooped up a fumble and returned it 23 yards for a touchdown late in the third quarter to push the Mustangs' lead to 45-20.

Stone completed 11 of 17 passes for 219 yards for SMU. Freshman backup quarterback Kevin Jennings had his first collegiate touchdown pass - a 6-yarder to Rice late in the third quarter. Rice had nine receptions for 180 yards. Braylon Braxton came off the bench to complete 8 of 14 passes for 120 yards for the Golden Hurricane (3-5, 1-3). He teamed up with Keylon Stokes for a 50-yard score and Jordan Ford for a 9-yarder in the fourth quarter. - SMU/AP College Football

10/27/22 - Tyler Van Dyke, rSr/2026, Southern Methodist, 6-4, 230 (DS#25 QB) + More +

Miami Hurricanes coach Mario Cristobal would not say late Wednesday morning whether quarterback Tyler Van Dyke is out for Saturday's Virginia game, amid a report that Jake Garcia will start. Cristobal, on a Zoom conference call with the media, said Van Dyke "has improved a bunch" and that "the status [for Virginia] is still unknown and we will determine that a little bit later. Jake has practiced really well so we feel confident obviously in the room. We'll have an update by Friday, closer to game time." A bit later in the call, Cristobal was asked if Van Dyke practiced this week. "Tyler has practiced very little,'' the coach said. "Jake has taken a lot of the reps. Jacurri [Brown] has taken a bunch of reps. Peyton Matocha has taken a good amount of reps as well. We're preparing everybody, with Jake taking the majority of reps thus far. "We'll see where we are by late Thursday, late Friday." - Miami Herald

SMU true freshman corner Jayden Lawton announced his intention to sit out the rest of the season and transfer when the transfer portal opens. Lawton made the announcement on his Instagram. Lawton, a cousin of former NFL wide receiver Michael Crabtree, was looked at as a very raw, but talented prospect for the Mustangs. The 6-foot-4 corner was primarily a basketball player until he started playing high school football at Lovejoy. Lawton was listed as a three-star recruit with offers from SMU, Ohio and Illinois, according to 247Sports. - Dallas Morning News

Tyler Van Dyke threw for 351 yards and two touchdowns to lead Miami to a 20-14 victory over Virginia Tech on Saturday. Van Dyke, coming off a 496-yard performance in Miami's loss to North Carolina, threw touchdown passes of 5 yards to Frank Ladson, Jr. and 17 yards to Colbie Young in the first half for the Hurricanes (3-3, 1-1 Atlantic Coast Conference), who snapped a three-game losing streak. Virginia Tech (2-5, 1-3), which has lost four straight, trailed 20-0 before scoring twice in the fourth quarter. Quarterback Grant Wells' 3-yard touchdown run with 3:20 left cut the deficit to 20-14. Miami, though, converted twice on third down on the ensuing drive, with the final conversion coming on Van Dyke's 9-yard run on third-and-6 from the Miami 46 with under a minute left. Van Dyke completed 29 of 46 passes for the Hurricanes, who finished with 458 yards. Young had nine catches for 110 yards. Miami held Virginia Tech to just 257 yards and sacked Wells six times. - Miami/AP College Football

10/12/22 - Jake Bailey, rSr/2025, Southern Methodist, 5-09, 179 (DS#154 WR) + More +

SMU wide receiver Jake Bailey, a promising transfer from Rice, will "probably" miss the rest of the season due to injury, head coach Rhett Lashlee said after Tuesday's practice. Bailey appeared in four games for the Mustangs and finished with 12 receptions for 205 yards and a touchdown. There was a lot of optimism for Bailey heading into this season. He was a standout during fall camp, opening the eyes of SMU's coaches with his ability to get open. He had 56 receptions during his junior season at Rice and led the Owls with 714 receiving yards.

At SMU, it looked like Bailey - in a fast, explosive offense - could build off his junior season. "He's kind of a prototypical slot for what we do," Lashlee said during fall camp, "and we thought it was a good fit." Bailey suffered a shoulder injury later on in fall camp and re-injured it in the season opener against North Texas. He returned in a big way, though, catching eight passes for 163 yards and a touchdown against rival TCU. - Dallas Morning News

10/04/22 - Zion Nelson, rSr/2026, Southern Methodist, 6-5, 318 (DS#60 OT) + More +

After making his season debut in the Hurricanes' close loss to the then-No. 24 Texas A&M Aggies in Week 3, Nelson didn't play against the Blue Raiders in Week 4 because he experienced "a setback," Cristobal said. Nelson, who garnered preseason All-America recognition, missed the first two games of the year after having surgery to clean loose cartilage out of his left knee in July. The star tackle is now questionable for Miami's next game. "We expect that it's going to be close," Cristobal said. The junior started every game at left tackle last year, but came off the bench in his lone appearance this season, rotating in at both tackle spots. Offensive lineman John Campbell Jr. has started all four games at left tackle and earned rave reviews from Cristobal. - Miami Herald
