GAME THREAD: MBB vs. UNLV

[Charleston Pony]

Four guys in double figures now

[PonyPride]

Can't remember the last time the Mustangs passed the ball this well. Across the board, they look incredibly unselfish, making the extra pass to the open man

SMU 72, UNLV 55
5:12 to go in second half

[PonyPride]

Kendric Davis drives the baseline, hits the deck HARD after a foul, holding his head.
Trainer out to check on him.
Davis heads to the locker room to get checked out, Nutall goes to the line — hits 1 of 2

73-57

[Mustangs35SMU]

Gotta make your FTs.

[PonyPride]

... and after missing 33 seconds, Davis is back

[PonyPride]

First 7 UNLV opponents averaged 62.5 points

SMU has 73 with 3:54 to go

[Mustangs35SMU]

Lead down to 14

[SMUer]

We’re hitting shots but it doesn’t look like we’re running any discernible offensive scheme.

[PonyPride]

Ponies trying to bleed clock — Davis drives, kicks the ball outside, gets it back and realizes he's running out of time on the shot clock ... and goes up between 3 Vegas defenders, all taller than he ism, and drops in a mid-range jumper

SMU 78, UNLV 63

[PonyPride]

Vegas now has 4 guys with 3 fouls

Michael Weathers hits 2 of 2 FTs

SMU 80, UNLV 63

1:17 to go

[Charleston Pony]

Pretty good night for the Weathers bros. 8-11 FGs, 19 pts, 10 boards, 5 assists & 2 blocks combined

[PonyPride]

FINAL: SMU 83, UNLV 64

[Mustangs35SMU]

Extremely good win. Build on it against Vandy.

[Charleston Pony]

Best our guys have played so far this season. Played good D, especially early. Shared the ball and got good looks, shot well, rebounded and challenged UNLV's shots. Hope this team continues to improve as they approach conference play

[ponyboy]

Kendric impressive as always. The Weathers brothers were fun to watch. Tristan Clark always a steady presence.
