Roderick Daniels Jr. - Gets involved in backfield Daniels hauled in 2 of 3 targets for 20 yards while rushing for 53 yards and a score on 15 carries during Saturday's 42-16 win over Florida State. Impact Give all the injuries to SMU's tailbacks, someone needed to carry the football against Florida State, and Daniels helped back up the top ball-carrier Brashard Smith. He had a fairly successful day on the ground, but don't expect Daniels to become a full-time running back. The receiver, who's reeled in seven grabs for 72 yards this season, should resume his role as a pass-catcher once the Mustangs' detail of tailbacks is healthy once again.
