Kevin Jennings throws for 350 yards and 4 TDs as SMU beats Virginia Tech 51-28

Kevin Jennings threw for 350 yards with three of his four touchdowns to Yamir Knight as SMU beat Virginia Tech 51-28

2 DAYS AGO • Associated Press

Yannick Smith - Secures six catches in home win Smith totaled 84 receiving yards on six catches during Friday's 51-28 victory against Virginia Tech.

Impact Smith is a high-volume receiver, going for five or more receptions in four of the past five games, while piling up at least 84 receiving yards in three of the past four outings. However, he has been unable to find the end zone since scoring in each of the first two games this season. He'll look to re-discover the end zone next Saturday against Wake Forest.

Jalen Cooper - Just misses century mark Cooper tallied 98 receiving yards and a touchdown on five receptions during Friday's 51-28 victory over Virginia Tech.

Impact Cooper and Yamir Knight combined for 201 receiving yards and four touchdowns, as both receivers were on fire. The Mustangs will need both to replicate those results in a potential shootout against Wake Forest next Saturday against Dallas. It was his first touchdown since Sept. 7 at Florida State.

2 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Yamir Knight - Goes off for 103 yards, three touchdowns Knight rolled up six receptions for 103 yards and three touchdowns during Friday's 51-28 victory versus Virginia Tech.

Impact Knight is now working on a touchdown streak, posting four scores in the past two games. It was his second 100-yard game of the season, and it was his first multi-score game since he had two touchdowns in a win over Ball State when he was with James Madison. He'll look to make it three straight games with a TD when Wake Forest comes calling next Saturday.

2 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Dramekco Green - Makes return from broken hand Green had six rushes for 39 yards and one touchdown during Friday's 51-28 win against Virginia Tech.

Impact Green didn't show any rust in his return from a month-long absence due to a broken hand, and he ended up scoring his first touchdown since Sept. 13, 2025, in a game at Missouri State last season. With Green back in the mix, it will be interesting to see how the Mustangs split up the carries between Green, starter Kendrick Raphael and Christian Rhodes. All three backs had at least six totes in the win.

2 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Kendrick Raphael - Visits end zone in Friday's win Raphael logged 15 rushes for 63 yards and one touchdown during Friday's 51-28 win versus Virginia Tech.

Impact Raphael averaged just 4.2 yards per carry, and he was outgained by Christian Rhodes in eight fewer carries, but Raphael also found the end zone. The senior from Naples, Fla. remains the workhorse for the Mustangs, and he is working on a streak of three straight games with at least one rushing touchdown (four total), and he has at least one score in seven of his past eight games.

2 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Christian Rhodes - Leads back with 92 yards Rhodes posted seven rushes for 92 yards during Friday's 51-28 win over Virginia Tech.

Impact Rhodes did a great job with 13.1 rushing yards per carry, including a 59-yard gallop late in the third quarter to get SMU into the end zone on a drive which resulted in a touchdown. He is still expected to work in a complementary role to Kendrick Raphael, who had 15 carries for 63 yards and a TD. Next up is a visit from Wake Forest next Saturday.

2 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Kevin Jennings - Tosses four TDs under Friday night lights Jennings completed 24 of 32 passes for 350 yards, four touchdowns and one interception during Friday's 51-28 win over Virginia Tech. He also had five rushes for 17 yards.

Impact Jennings has been extremely accurate this season, completing at least 63.9 percent of his passes in all nine games to date, and he has at least two touchdown passes in six consecutive outings. His four TDs were the most against an FBS opponent this season, and one shy of the season best he had against UC Davis, an FCS team, back on Sept. 12.

Carterrious Brown - Ruled out for Friday Brown (undisclosed) will not play in Friday's clash with Virginia Tech, per the ACC availability report.

Impact This will be Brown's fourth consecutive absence. It remains to be seen when he'll be able to return to the field, but even when he returns, he should have a minimal role in the passing game.

6 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Dramekco Green - Available Friday Green (hand) is ready to rock for Friday's clash with Virginia Tech, per the ACC availability report.

Impact Green is slated to return to action after clearing SMU's injury report. The running back was dealing with a hand injury that forced him to miss three games. Before getting hurt, he recorded 36 attempts for 111 yards across five appearances. He will work behind Kendrick Raphael in the backfield.

NOVEMBER 2 • SI.COM

Randy Pittman Jr. - Has forgettable day at Syracuse Pittman caught all two targets for 14 yards during Saturday's 30-27 loss versus Syracuse.

Impact Not only did Syracuse beat SMU, to splash cold water on the Mustangs, but Pittman had a dismal performance, too. He posted just the 15 yards on two receptions, and he was nailed to the bench after losing a fumble. He has managed 27 or fewer receiving yards in each of his past seven games since posting 75 yards and a score in his first game of the season at Florida State on Sept. 7. Outside of his four touchdowns, it's been a mostly disappointing campaign for the senior.

NOVEMBER 2 • ROTOWIRE

Yamir Knight - Back in the end zone against Orange Knight recorded six receptions (on seven targets) for 80 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 30-27 loss to Syracuse.

Impact Knight has managed six or more catches in five of his eight games this season, and his 80 yards were his most since rolling up 164 yards against Missouri State back on Sept. 26. That also the last time he scored a touchdown. He'll look to make it a TD streak when Virginia Tech visits Dallas on Friday night.

NOVEMBER 2 • ROTOWIRE

Yannick Smith - Flirts with triple digits in road loss Smith notched five receptions (on eight targets) for 95 yards during Saturday's 30-27 defeat versus Syracuse.

Impact Smith just missed out on hitting the century mark against Syracuse, who allowed 352 passing yards and 12.1 yards per reception, although SMU was still unable to find a path to victory. Smith's 95 receiving yards were his most since Sept. at Florida State when he exploded for five grabs, 107 yards and the first of his two scores on the season.

NOVEMBER 2 • ROTOWIRE

Christian Rhodes - Good for 39 total yards from scrimmage Rhodes accrued three carries for 22 yards and hauled in all two targets for 17 yards during Saturday's 30-27 loss to Syracuse.

Impact Rhodes managed a total of five touches, as he battles Derrick McFall for crumbs behind the starter Kendrick Raphael. As long as the latter is healthy and available, the workload will be limited and there will be a low ceiling on fantasy appeal for Rhodes.

NOVEMBER 2 • ROTOWIRE

Kendrick Raphael - Totals 84 scrimmage yards, score Raphael had 14 rushes for 51 yards and one touchdown and caught all five targets for 33 yards during Saturday's 30-27 loss against Syracuse.

Impact Raphael had another somewhat productive day, including the rushing touchdown, but he managed just 3.6 yards per rushing attempt against a surprisingly motivated Syracuse rush defense. Raphael has had a magnet for the end zone, posting nine rushing scores and one receiving TD, and he has at least one score in six of his past seven outings.
