Coach always talks about this team's grit, but it seems more and more they get laid back with leads and allow teams to get back into games. Have to hope our guys can draw energy from the crowd and match Houston but right now Houston seems to be getting every board and loose ball.

Houston crowd loud SMU needs fans interaction to win

Not surprising to see someone named Sasser playing well at Moody. Jason had some good games in Dallas for Tech,m and everyone knows about Jeryl.

UH's Marcus Sasser has made mistakes (i.e. 4 turnovers), but he's a freshman and really talented. He's going to be a headache for a lot of teams going forward.

Davis forces 3 as clock winds down ... White saves it from going out of bounds, Hunt with big dunk

SMU 51, UH 43 with 7:34 to go in second half

SMU 2-5 FTs in 2nd half. That's not going to win this game

Three Mustangs scoring in double figures:

Mike 14
Jolly 12
Hunt 11

51-43

Davis should join them soon

Great play by Hinton — had ball slapped away, grabbed it and flung up a shot as clock wound down ... and it went in

51-45

Jarreau (4 fouls, team-high 11 points) back in for UH

Ponies in bonus, will shoot FTs on all fouls remaining in second half (6:15 to go)

Terrible officiating on that sequence! Houston went over the back and no call and then SMU gets called for the push.

Bye Jarreau!

Bandoumel draws charge from Jarreau — fouls out.
That is huge. Jarraeu has been UH's best player today.

Among those on the video board during timeout promotion: Garrett Krstich

Harris called for second foul when he blocks Jolly's shot ... and Jolly's head.

Jolly hits 2

SMU 59-52

3 minutes left

Sasser hits his fourth 3, now has team-high 16

Jolly leads all scorers with 18

Davis hits 2/2 FTs

SMU leads 61-55
