SMU 17-4 (8-1) vs. UCF 9-11 (2-7).

According to KenPom, UCF's best win to date was against Georgia Southern (Allman Brother Country) back in December. The Knights of Nee are losers of 4 straight and 5 of their last 6. Last night they were blown out by Temple 86-62.

KenPom gives us a 97% chance of winning and predicts the score to be 77-57.

I think Donnie Jones' seat may be getting very warm down in Orlando.

They are giving up 111 points per 100 possessions, good for 318th in the nation. For comparison's sake, SMU gives up 91 points per possession (20th in the nation).

Their one positive stat on offense is that they shoot 36.6% from 3, but struggle mightily from 2 and from the stripe.

Opportunity to add a win to the resume.

Or, if you're George O'Leary, the opportunity to add four wins, a conference title, and 3 all american selections to the resume.

UCF games should be pretty interesting next year when the 7'6 Tacko arrives...

Any relation to Bamba? Or is Fall like Smith in Senegal?
