Silver lining is we got rid of the Australian all star team months ago.

Seeding blows but I'm glad we can rest up.

I thought it was interesting that the bracket showed us with a 29-4 record. Obviously today's game didn't really make a difference to our seeding. Glad that they are close to town though up in Tulsa. Get up there Ponyfans. Lets make it sound like a home game.

Moody north. Fans can influence a sweet 16 run. Will be opposite session of Kansas so won't be bidding for tix with them on Friday

This SMU team lives and dies by the three. Just hope they can play with confidence against better competition

I'm not going to let anything ruin this day/weekend especially when most every SMU fan gets an opportunity to go to games if they can secure tickets. When it come right down to it-you have to beat good teams to be a great team. I like our chances to make a run if we play well. And although Motley at Baylor would be tough they've lost quite a few games in last month or so. I've seen these snub scenarios really come back and bite a team in the [deleted]. Love the opportunity

they play some pretty stout Defense too-it was incredible today-I love watching how SMU closes out on shooters and communicates on shifts

agree stallion. I think this is a pretty good outcome - by accident. These are the best teams in the country. We are going to have to beat good teams hopefully in a row.

People who REALLY know basketball really don't want to play SMU. There is a reason for that.

no doubt; that was a big factor in Cincy's poor shooting. Lots of blocks inside today as well

Clark Kellogg just said on TV he thought SMU would beat Duke to meet Nova in NYC! :shock:

I love our draw! Our OK boys will feel at home. Baylor is beatable. We need to pack the stadium and give these guys the support they deserve! Go Ponies!!

Really hoping we make it to the 2nd weekend. I will definitely make the trip up to MSG - my favorite place to watch a basketball game.

So the rankings mean absolutely nothing-so why have them?

We need to get to the sweet 16 to get national respect for SMU and the AAC.
