SMU will use Saturday's big game to raise awareness for sexual and domestic violence

Needing one win to become bowl eligible, SMU can clinch its first bowl appearance in four years with a victory over South Florida on Saturday at Ford Stadium.

But the game will also carry special significance to the program in its quest to raise awareness to sexual and domestic violence. The team will wear ribbons on their helmets to help publicize the cause.
