DALLAS -- Ben Hicks threw for 338 yards and two touchdowns, and SMU became bowl eligible for the first time since 2012 with a 38-34 victory over Tulsa on Friday night.
Tulsa went for it on fourth-and-8 from its own 35 with less than three minutes remaining in the game, but Demerick Gary sacked Luke Skipper and SMU ran out the clock after getting a first down on Trey Quinn's 13-yard catch.
Quinn, who entered with 15-plus receptions in three straight games, had eight grabs for 101 yards and two touchdowns for SMU (6-2, 3-1 American Athletic Conference).
