OFFICIAL GAME 28 THREAD: SMU vs. UH

[sadderbudweiser]

I hope jank figures out how to use the bench players (Dashawn, Wilfong, Leo). That is one thing that impressed me when he was coaching the 9-0 run last year, he actually used bench players to keep us fresh. This six man rotation sucks. Dashawn get go to the basket and is athletic enough to throw down dunks. Just have him defend and get some fouls.

Frankly.... he figured that out awhile ago. Other than 10 minutes or so out of Dashawn we are 6.

Is Dashawn McDowell cleared to play at HOU - I hope so - we could really use him today.

I was at last year's HOU game - and the game was great until Nic left the game to rest. Hou would go on their runs every time Nic was on the bench. This was the game that had me fearing this season and what would happen with Nic not on the floor. So glad that these guys proved me wrong in the post Nic era.

Also - it can get pretty loud in there because of the low ceilings. I suspect that this will be the loudest and rowdiest road game environment that we play in all year (louder than @Cincy).

Deshaun was in uniform against Tulane, don't think that happens if your not cleared. Jank could use deshaun more, never understood why he didn't get longer run outs when we were pasting teams. I get that he is raw but every minute he is out there is 1 less minute someone else doesn't have to play.

Wow. I have been going for 4 and have recently been wondering "does it get any easier? Will I ever not be as nervous?" And i am just a spectator!

[Stallion]

Ha! This team is one of the easiest in SMU History to rout for-they've won 19 of 20 and haven't really let us down. Post with confidence

Agree but the more they win the more it seems like there is riding on the next game. If you look back at the 19 its a big accomplishment. A lot of those could have gone a different way.

Love cheering for them. Great to watch.

I get nervous for our beer league softball.games. I dont have what you would call ice water in the veins

[geezerdonk]

They will probably drop two of the last four including this one - hoping to be surprised, again.

Hopefully we aren't too exhausted from only playing 6 guys. Still think Jank needs to be playing Wilfong 6-8 mins a game.
