Stanford struggled defensively without key starters, allowing SMU to dominate early and ultimately lose 40-10, marking their fourth consecutive blowout loss and causing concern.
SMU's quarterback Kevin Jennings exploited a depleted Stanford secondary to throw for three touchdowns within the first quarter, establishing an early commanding lead.
Stanford's struggles continued as they switched to freshman quarterback Elijah Brown, whose performance included a lone touchdown pass but also significant difficulties under pressure.
Despite a brief spark from an 18-yard touchdown pass by Brown, Stanford failed to maintain momentum, as they struggled to keep pace with SMU's offensive capabilities.
