Despite 6 turnovers, No. 22 SMU sinks Duke in OT

Brashard Smith ran 24 yards for a touchdown on the second play of overtime and No. 22 SMU stopped Duke's two-point conversion pass attempt in a 28-27 victory Saturday night at Durham, N.C. SMU (7-1, 3-0 Atlantic Coast Conference) committed six turnovers, but survived because of Duke's kicking woes. Maalik Murphy threw 25 yards to Eli Pancol on Duke's first snap of overtime before the Blue Devils opted to go for the win. SMU blocked Todd Pelino's 30-yard field goal attempt on the last play of regulation, the third kick to go awry for the Blue Devils in the second half.
