I was thinking the same thing — it feels that way.

But SMU is out rebounding UH, 15-10, and each team has 4 offensive rebounds

Our guys doing a good job on the boards but we are getting beat to most loose balls and the pace and intensity has taken our perimeter shooters out of the game

SMU with 6 assists on only 8 made FGs. Need to see more motion, screening and ball movement in 2nd half to make Houston work [deleted] D

(Make it difficult for Houston on D)

Sasser 3 stretches UH lead to 32-24

Man, Houston is really a good team. Much respect.

More importantly, Kendric Davis picks up third foul — call it a flagrant 1

On replay, yes, it was a foul.
But Davis had one index finger across Sasser's forearm, and it got a flagrant.
Davis stays in the game with 3 fouls.

Grimes 3 stretches UH lead to 37-24

horrible call

So much for competing with Houston, Our guards are completely overmatched in this game

Jassey cannot be trusted with the ball in his hands.

We aren't going to beat anyone if K.D. is the only guard to show up and compete

Say it another way: We are not a top 5 team. Well, duh.
