He was a McDonald's all American. Just because you have not heard of him does not mean he is a no name player.

No they aren't. As I mentioned except for seeding this game means nothing. Win or lose -SMU or Tulsa-its still coming down to next Sunday.

No, a HS all american who had underperformed is starting to "get it".

UConn played great. It happens. If we beat Tulsa, we win conference, and we are a horrible matchup for them.

Great to have SMU in the position that this loss doesn't mean doom for a conference title or NCAA tournament appearance.

SMU is still in the drivers seat for a conference title. Bring on Tulsa!

This makes Sunday's game even bigger. Moody will be packed solid and loud.

Man, I've never seen ponyte so wrong before.

Edit: Other than maybe with his praise of Mason

Hope to hear LB and company point to this loss in a month when they are talking about the turning point that led to post-season success.

No matter what happened in SMU and Tulsa' next games it still would have come down to next Sunday.

Any chance the Tulsa game gets bumped up to a better channel than ESPNU?

Nope. It's locked in. It's the final day of the reg. season for the big big conferences and some mid-majors and minors tourneys will have their finals that day

Agree. I just wish we were the one with all the cards. I'll be at that game and I hope to see a big SMU win. But Tulsa will be very motivated especially if they beat Cincy.
