October 23, 2012: It had been a long time since SMU left a game against Macalester with a victory. A very long time. Make that a very, very long time. The Cardinals kicked their offense into high gear against the Scots, and SMU's defense followed suit — and the combination was enough to put an end to a 25-year winless streak against the Scots with a 2-0 Saint Mary's victory in St. Paul, Minn.
