exactly - everyone thinks you are just going to get lay downs. This team just won back to back games against decent teams by more than 15 points each. If it is ugly - thats fine. Look up and down the top 25 - tons of ugly LOSES by lots of great teams.

I found someplace that said we are 15-4 against the spread-not sure of other 2 games---and I specifically remember a couple where our bench blew the spread-so we good

16 assists against 16 turnovers a rarity for this team; glad to get out of Philly with this win behind a career night for Semi.

16 assists but only 22 buckets-blew many more assist opportunities

their boos are like sweet chirping blue birds on a crisp spring day…..

Go eat some bad steak smothered in average cheese on bread that will kill you ten years early.

Good bye.

Golden age of SMU Basketball ! We expect to beat Temple on the road and get stressed out when they climb within 6 in the 2nd half.

I must have survivor's syndrome ( having lived through the 20 years when we couldn't win on the road and were horrible during the doh years) where I overly appreciate a road win.

But love this team.

seems like there are usually only 2-3 times a game where we drag due to tiredness but generally we are strong to the finish in most every game

Whew. A little stressful but I will gladly take up by 6 on the road stress over down 15 or even trading buckets.

That sure wasn't pretty but it looks really nice in the WIN column.

And congrats Sterling: 100 wins (and almost as many T's)
Party at The Wopper!
