Game is sold out. Where are the empty seats? Behind basket seats are mostly full. This game was late selling out.

SMU fans can't say anything about attendance.

McMurray shooting lights out and Chargois having a good night offensively but Houston out rebounding us by 9 and has taken 18 more shots. If not for McMurray and Chargois this would be a 30 point loss. In the immortal words of Jim Copeland "I've seen enough"

Sad b/c 2 & 3 years ago SMU fans owned Hofheinz.

The game was sold out weeks ago. I had to buy my tickets through the SMU ticket office.

The dude with the marvelous hair started and played 5 minutes thanks to Senior night. He scored one point.

Douglas, Young and Dixon (our entire bench) played 36 minutes and scored.....

Wait for it.......


One point.

Awesome.

That's Landon Goesling aka Sunshine (Remember the Titans)

In case you're wondering why his teammates wanted him to score, its not just white guy at the end of the bench excitement. He came into the game just 3 points short of 1000 career points. Most of that was at D2 level, but it still would be a great number for him to reach.

The announcers were saying that only a few years ago SMU was winning the conference tournament and conference titles.... now they really aren't competitive....
I'd like to see the new arena. There were tons of empty seats - probably sold - but the fan didn't attend because SMU is at the bottom of the league.

Like it or not we have become ECU.

If Jank stays we will be in the last quadrant again. Cinci, Memphis, UCF, UH, UConn, Temple all are trending up. Meanwhile back at the ranch we are roadkill.....
