DALLAS -- Fans chanted S-M-U when the Mustangs, three-touchdown underdogs against No. 11 Houston, took a lead that big in the first half.They were chanting again in the final moments of a 38-16 victory Saturday, one of the biggest for a program thats been mostly moribund in three decades since getting shut down by crippling sanctions under the NCAAs so-called death penalty.It means everything, said redshirt freshman quarterback Ben Hicks, who threw for three touchdowns and ran for another score. We just needed one. Weve been saying it all along. Now we got that one, and now we have to flip the script and get ready for Tulane.But let coach Chad Morris and his gang enjoy this one for maybe a day at least. Morris, a Dallas native, took the job after the program collapsed following several promising seasons under June Jones.The laid-back former NFL coach took the Mustangs to their first bowl game since the programs shutdown -- and they went to four in a row.But a losing season in 2013 was followed by an embarrassing start in 2014, and Jones abruptly quit two games into the season. With a season-ending win at Connecticut in 2014, SMU avoided a second winless season since 2003. It was the seventh one-win campaign, though, since 1990.Morris debut last season was as rough as Jones in 2008, but the Mustangs showed promise early this year by staying with high-scoring Texas teams Baylor and TCU before fading in the second half of both games.There was no fade against the Cougars in SMUs fourth win in 20 tries against Houston since returning from the death penalty. The first game was a 95-21 loss.The last time the Mustangs (3-4, 1-2 American) beat a team ranked 11th or higher, they were No. 4 and finishing off a near-perfect 1982 season (11-0-1) with a 7-3 victory over sixth-ranked Pittsburgh in the Cotton Bowl. SMU tied No. 7 Texas A&M in 1994.After the game, to see our student body and our former players and some of the alumni out there, I dont know how long I stayed out there taking pictures with them, Morris said. But the `Thank yous. `Coach, we thank you. Weve been waiting on something like this, to give us life back in this program. They were so close a few years ago and it went down from there.The Mustangs lost senior quarterback Matt Davis to a season-ending knee injury, and Hicks threw nine interceptions in his first four starts. Now he has 486 yards with five touchdowns and no interceptions the past two games. The first game was a 43-40 overtime loss to Tulsa two weeks ago.When we came off the field against Tulsa that was as hurt of a locker room as Ive ever been part of, Morris said. For two weeks weve had to respond. And I shared with them that if we could all respond the right way, great things were coming.Great things came quickly.---More AP college football: www.collegefootball.ap.orgMatteo Guendouzi Arsenal Jersey .

The recently retired Stern was elected Friday to the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame and will be enshrined with the class of 2014 on Aug.Kevin Magnussen says he is frustrated by the ongoing wait to discover the fate of his Formula One future as Renault continues to ponder its driver options for 2017.Renault is yet to announce its driver line-up for 2017 with both Magnussen and teammate Jolyon Palmer still no closer to knowing if they will remain on the grid next year. Valtteri Bottas and Sergio Perez have both been linked with the Enstone-based outfit, while Esteban Ocons strong ties with the team -- and recent promotion to an F1 seat with Manor -- has seen him emerge as a contender for a seat next season.When asked if he is nervy or relaxed given his experiences in 2014 when he lost his McLaren drive to Fernando Alonso, the Dane said he felt the situation at McLaren was less difficult at the same stage of that season and admits he is frustrated by the uncertainty.The situation at McLaren was in a way easier because I knew or I thought I knew I had the seat. I was told I had the seat and I wasnt so worried until maybe the last two races. So at this point of the season I felt very comfortablle.dddddddddddd. But I dont feel too stressed to be honest.Yes it is [frustrating]. I was hoping for a decision between these two races, but clearly it hasnt come and things are taking longer than I had hoped for. Of course it would be nice to just know your future and youd be a little bit more relaxed if that was the case. But that is not what I have. So, anyway that is how it is.Magnussen says he has spoken to Renault team principal Frederic Vasseur about his performances in 2016 -- which has included scoring the teams only points so far in Russia -- and believes he can do no more in his attempts to secure a drive for next season.I have asked him and he told me, I cant complain. So whether that is true or not, I dont know. I am doing my best and I feel like I am on top of my game. I dont feel like there is anything more I can do. Whatever it will be, I will look back and say I have done my best. Hopefully that is good enough. ' ' '
