The SMU Mustangs honored Dallas-area first responders with a special tribute helmet decal during Friday's game against the TCU Horned Frogs at Gerald J. Ford Stadium.
The blue helmets featured the iconic Dallas skyline within a Mustang outline.
Prior to the game, there was a moment of silence for fallen first responders: Dallas Police officers Lorne Ahrens, Michael Krol, Michael Smith and Patrick Zamarripa; DART Officer Brent Thompson; SMU Officer Mark McCullers; and University Park Fire Department Chief Bob Poynter.
Dallas Police Chief David Brown, who retires from his post in two weeks, was invited to conduct the pre-game coin toss.
SMU offered free tickets to the game to police officers, firefighters and paramedics.
TCU overcame a slow start to win the game in a rout, 33-3.
