Don't worry about the secondary market...seats available on Ticketmaster. Gobble em up, Mustangs. We really owe it to the guys and to Jank to make this Moody North. Let''s start something.

I could not be happier about this draw.
We play close by, Friday, We get opportunity to take down a PAC 12 team that beat us, that we felt we were better than, maybe get some PAC 12 payback for the UCLA screw job,
Payback on Baylor for being Baylor and opportunity to take down the mighty Duke at
MSG.
What's not to love?
Very excited!
Beat the hell out of anybody!

Henry Bushnell (the dagger) agrees with a lot of above comments (we got favorable draw):

SMU | Seed: 6 | Region: East

A No. 6 seed is harsh on the Mustangs, who haven’t lost in two months. Fortunately, though, the committee presented them with a potential second-round matchup with Baylor, a fairly ordinary No. 3 seed. SMU can match Baylor athletically and physically, and has more offensive talent than the higher-seeded Bears. The Mustangs might even be favored if the two both advance past their first-round foes. A Sweet 16 battle with Duke would be tough, of course, but SMU couldn’t have asked for much more as a No. 6 seed.

I was listening via online app on the drive back to NYC so not sure which it was, but he didn't stop short. He predicted SMU > Duke.

Phrasing! Wait, are we still doing phrasing?
