Kevin Jennings Becomes SMU’s Career Passing Leader as No. 22 Mustangs Overcome Missouri State 34-24

Jennings threw for 464 yards and broke Ben Hicks’ career passing mark as SMU rallied from a 10-point deficit.

  • On Saturday, SMU quarterback Kevin Jennings threw for 464 yards, setting the school's career passing record with 9,162 yards and 722 completions as the Mustangs overcame a 10-point deficit to defeat Missouri State 34-24.
  • First-Year Missouri State coach Casey Woods previously served as SMU's offensive coordinator and is a longtime friend of Mustangs coach Rhett Lashlee; the pair worked together at Arkansas State and Auburn during the 2010 national championship.
  • Yamir Knight recorded 164 receiving yards on 11 catches, while Jalen Cooper added 125 yards and Theo Melin Ohrstrom secured two touchdowns for the Mustangs.

  • Upcoming games include an ACC home contest for the Mustangs against Boston College next Saturday, while Missouri State enters an open date before facing Western Kentucky in Conference USA play.
