The combined 140 points set the NCAA record for a regulation game.
With UH moving to the Big 12 next year and no games scheduled for the foreseeable future, SMU made sure to leave a lasting impression against its I-45 rivals.
UH had no answer to stop Mordecai and his stable of wide receivers. SMU scored touchdowns on its first nine drives to begin the game. The crowd at Gerald J. Ford Stadium booed when the Mustangs had to punt for the first time with about five minutes left in the third quarter. UH had its three-game winning streak broken and fell behind first-place Tulane and second-place UCF and Cincinnati in the AAC race. The Cougars must also wait at least another week to become bowl eligible.
It was another bitter pill for the Cougars, who lost for the fourth time in the last five trips in Dallas. In those four losses, UH has allowed an average 56.3 points.
