Bhop and Isham are the story today. Bhop with 35 pts, Isham with 15 in a 66-55 win. Bhop was 9-9 FTs, 6 assists, 4 boards. That's the kind of game we have been hoping for from Bhop. Simpson had 2 fouls early and didn't score. Pearson played more minutes and pulled down some boards.

It's great to get a shot at Purdue and this puts us back on track for that 5-5 non-conference finish. Tomorrow's game will be on ESPN-plus package. Call your local sports bar for a Sunday outing!

Terrific comeback. Things were not looking good midway through the 2nd half. They did just what they needed to....kick it up several notches!

This takes away some of the pain from Thursday night.

Thanks for the updates guys. You ain't no Mustang Sallies but you do well in a pinch(: Sounds like BHop had th4e kind of game we have been waiting for from him. Isham had a good one also. What happened to PSimp?

somebody said it was a 'solid' game by BHop. More like a spectacular game. Isham was great down the stretch, but Hopkins put SMU on his back and won that game.

It seems to me that there were 2 stories here. Bhop's outstanding ame and a grewat defensive effort by the team, When you hold a decent teqam to 55 points, that is impressive. Yet I heard a lot about 3's killing us.

OP, they did hit a lot of 3's in the first half, and early in the second half when they were up by 8. Also, taking nothing away from the Ponies defensive effort, Miami is a low scoring team by design. Dement characterized them as a "Princeton type".

2:30. The game is on satellite pay per view, but the beginning is opposite the Cowboys game so I doubt any bar is gonna show the Mustangs.

Silly me, I am going to pay the ante and watch with the hopes of breaking our shutout against ranked teams.

I just got back into town and didnt get to listen to the game. Sounds like Hop and Isham played great. Looking forward to the game tomorrow. Anyone know how much the ppv cost?
