DALLAS -- A grim-faced Tom Herman could hear the whoops and hollers of SMU players as the Houston coached tried to explain a shocking 38-16 loss to the Mustangs on Saturday night.Was it hard to listen to that celebration?More than you know, Herman said.Ben Hicks threw for three touchdowns and ran for another score in SMUs first win over a ranked team in five years.The Cougars (6-2, 3-2 American) lost for the second time after a 5-0 start that included a season-opening win over then-No. 3 Oklahoma that vaulted Houston into the Top 10.The last time the Mustangs (3-4, 1-2) 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.It was SMUs fourth win in 20 tries against Houston since returning from the so-called death penalty in 1989. The first loss was 95-21.For us to come in and get a signature win like this is huge, SMU coach Chad Morris said. And I shared with our players for the last two weeks, `It just takes one (win) to start a revolution. It just takes one win to put some wind in our sails.Greg Ward Jr. couldnt shake a persistent SMU pass rush or find receivers for big plays, finishing with 241 yards passing -- almost 100 below his average -- and just 3 yards rushing on 17 carries thanks to seven sacks.One of the sacks was for an 18-yard loss to the Houston 22 when coach Tom Herman went for it on fourth down trailing 28-14 early in the fourth quarter.Herman got conservative moments later, choosing a 19-yard field goal attempt on fourth down from the SMU 2. Ty Cummings hit the right upright for his second miss.Immense introspection when you lose a game like that, Herman said. Well leave no stone unturned to figure out why that happened.Hicks was 16 of 31 for 228 yards, including a 28-yard touchdown to a wide-open James Proche for a 28-7 lead in the final seconds of the first half. SMU appeared content to run out the clock before a 40-yard run by Braeden West, who had 115 yards rushing and a punctuating touchdown late.THE TAKEAWAYHouston: Herman figured to be the hottest name in coaching for the offseason searches of LSU and any other high-profile programs that might be looking. Perhaps that doesnt change, but this October isnt helping. Convincing wins over Florida State in the Peach Bowl and the Sooners in this years opener have lost some luster.SMU: Morris, the second-year coach who went 2-10 in his debut season, has a good chance to build on his biggest win, and one of the programs biggest since the crippling NCAA sanctions almost 30 years ago. The Mustangs faded in the second half after strong early efforts against two other high-scoring Texas teams, Baylor and TCU. They finished the job this time.TONE-SETTING TURNOVERSThe Cougars lost two fumbles in the first quarter and never got their high-powered offense going. Houston was outgained 406-303. When you play a team at their place thats fresh, thats hungry, motivated, to give them life like that, Herman said. Youre playing catch-up the whole game from that point on.CAREER GAMESMU defensive end Jarvis Pruitt recovered one of the fumbles and had three sacks in the Mustangs first win over a ranked team since beating No. 20 TCU 40-33 in overtime in 2011.POLL IMPLICATIONSHouston: The Cougars could tumble all the way out of the rankings after being at No. 6 for several weeks following the victory over the Sooners. The fall has been sudden for a program coming off its first New Years bowl in 30 years and the second 13-win season in program history.UP NEXTHouston: The Cougars start a stretch of three straight home games against UCF next Saturday. That stretch ends against No. 7 Louisville. They also get a bye after nine straight weeks of playing.Its a one-game season to get to that bye week and put everything weve got into protecting our home stadium and preparing and executing better than we did tonight, Herman said.SMU: The Mustangs visit Tulane next Saturday before a home game against Memphis, which just lost its first conference game against Navy.---Online:AP college football website: http://collegefootball.ap.orgCheap Air Max 90 Australia Free Shipping .

She parred the first 10 holes, then hit the approach that landed on the front of the green, hopped and rolled in.It was about 125 yards, like helping downwind, Yang said. I hit my pitching wedge, just full pitching wedge to the pin, and it came off really solid off the face.Anna Nordqvist, Mi Jung Hur and Candie Kung were tied for second after a round that was delayed about two hours because of lightning -- accompanied by periods of heavy rain -- with the final group in the 16th fairway.Nordqvist had a 68, and Hur and Kung each shot 65 to match the best rounds of the day.They are playing TPC Kuala Lumpurs East Course, a week after Justin Thomas successfully defended his title on the West Course in the PGA Tours CIMB Classic.There were some tough pin placements out there, a lot tougher than yesterday, Kung said. Yesterday, I didnt make any putts at all. But today, luckily, they all went in.Yang made her first bogey of the week after hitting into the water on the par-4 14th.Golf can be really easy like yesterday, but it can be also a little slow like today, Yang said. Im just going to be patient, do my best.She returned from the delay -- and lunch -- to hole a 20-footer for birdie on the par-5 16th.I was getting a little frustrated about not making putts and I was getting hungry, so I went back, ate lunch, Yang said. It actually gave me some time to think about what was going on and think about the next three, how to finish, so it helped.Both of Yangs LPGA Tour victories have come in Asia, the first in 2013 in South Korea and the second last year in Thailand. She has five top-three finishes this season.Michelle Wie hung around, while Lydia Ko and Brooke Henderson staggered in.Wie followed her opening 66 with a 70 to drop 4 strokes behind. Winless in 57 tournaments since the 2014 U.S. Womens Open, she is coming off a seasoon-best 10th-place tie last week in China.dddddddddddd Ha Na Jang (67), Azahara Munoz (70), Jenny Shin (70) and 2014 winner Shanshan Feng (70) joined Wie at 6 under.The top-ranked Ko closed bogey-double bogey for a 71, leaving her 8 strokes back in her first tournament since firing caddie Jason Hamilton. She finished on No. 9 before the storm hit.Obviously, thats not that great to end with a bogey and double on the last two holes, Ko said. But overall, I think I played more solid today compared to yesterday.Malaysias Sargunan Suntharaj is carrying the 19-year-old New Zealanders clubs.Its been going good, Ko said. Hes got a lot of experience. Weve been having a lot of fun out there, and hes been trying to keep me cool out here in the heat, which is a pretty big role.Hamilton shifted to Jang, the Taiwan winner three weeks ago for her third victory of the year.Henderson had an even worse finish than Ko, making a triple-bogey on the par-3 17th and a double-bogey on the par-5 18th for a 79 -- matching her worst tour round as a professional.Playing for the fifth straight week in Asia, the 19-year-old Canadian was 7 over. She is skipping the Asia finale next week in Japan, then will finish the season the following two weeks in Mexico and Florida.Nordqvist was on the 18th green when play was suspended, forcing the Swede, Brittany Lincicome and Karine Icher to wait.Disappointed that we couldnt finish, Nordqvist said. Brittany was about to tap-in her foot-and-a-halfer, and I was going to putt my 50-footer at the last. A little disappointed that we had to stick around, but overall, its a pretty solid day.Second-ranked Ariya Jutanugarn was 1 over after a birdie-free 75. She has a tour-high five victories -- one more than Ko -- and leads the money list and the Race to CME Globe and player of the year standings.Stacy Lewis failed to make a birdie in a 72 to drop to even par in her first event since mid-September.Defending champion Jessica Korda was 3 under after a 68. She was second Sunday in China, a stroke behind Minjee Lee. ' ' '
