00:00 We had one more championship game on Saturday, Joe.
00:06 That was the AAC, the American Athletic Championship game.
00:10 It was SMU versus Tulane.
00:13 And the Mustangs, with a backup quarterback, winning this one 26-14,
00:17 going on the road, the home of the Green Wave there in New Orleans,
00:22 and winning the game 26-14 as the three-point underdog.
00:27 SMU winning the conference here, Joe, and winning as the underdog
00:32 to take anything away from the Big Easy on Saturday.
00:35 Yeah, I loved what we saw out of SMU in this one.
00:38 Backup quarterback Jennings played a really solid game,
00:41 and it was nice to see Preston Stone on the sidelines supporting his team
00:45 after he did break his leg in that last game out.
00:49 SMU was so strong at owning that time of possession in this game,
00:54 and they were able to get the sacks on Tulane's quarterback, Pratt.
00:58 So they came out nice and strong on both sides of the ball,
01:01 winning this one 26-14, and they absolutely deserved to get this win.
01:06 I love the story of the backup quarterback being able to step in,
01:09 and this team still able to do it because I know a lot of people
01:12 doubted this team going into it, Drew.
