SMU 50, Texas A&M 21
Key player: Freshman DT Eric Riley gets four sacks, including one for a safety, and returns a fumble for a touchdown. He gets a game-high 14 tackles. Whoa.
The skinny: Willie Gold goes 60 yards around right end for a TD run that puts the Mustangs up 22-21 after they trailed 21-7. Fullback Tyler Lane gets a wall around the left side on the next possession and rumbles 78 yards for a score. Riley's fumble return makes it 43-21. Game over. ... Lane finishes with 120 rushing yards; Gold gets 83 and Quinton Smith 75 on eight carries.
No. 2 Cincinnati also stays undefeated, so the Mustangs and defending national champs are still on collision course for a No. 1 vs. No. 2 showdown in Dallas on the final day of the regular season.
