SMU dominates struggling Florida State 42-16 to win its ACC debut

DALLAS -- , Kevin Jennings passed for a career-high three touchdowns and Kobe Wilson returned one of three SMU interceptions 82 yards for a score as the Mustangs beat Florida State 42-16 on Saturday night before a sellout crowd in their ACC debut. Jennings threw TD passes of 11 and 15 yards to RJ Maryland and a flea-flicker score of 42 yards to Jordan Hudson . “It means a lot to come in and get a ‘W’ against any team,” Jennings said, “but for the ACC (opener), it’s a home game and a jam-packed stadium, it means a lot to the city of the Dallas.” Former President George W. Bush, a Dallas resident, performed the pregame coin toss. Jennings was 16-for-23 passing for a career-best 254 yards. On the flea flicker, Roderick Daniels Jr . immediately turned and flipped the ball back to Jennings. He lofted a pass down the middle to Hudson, who was backpedaling at 10 and eased into the end zone.
