UCF 23, SMU 18

Wright on!

Wright with his second 3, closing it to 25-21, UCF

Also: nice of the announcers to point out that Wright's jumper "has a nice backspin" ... as opposed to all of those other shooters who heave up knuckleballs from behind the arc?

UCF with a 6 rebound advantage and getting 2nd chance attempts on half of their misses. UCF has taken 8 more shots than SMU but our guys hitting 50% at least has us competitive in this game. We just don't have enough shooters to help spread opposing defenses. Ricardo Wright has been a bright spot offensively and Odigie has been his usual aggressive self but having some success today

SMU with only 3 assists vs 9 turnovers in that 1st half

Announcers sound as if they have never seen either team before and spent a good 30 seconds reading game notes. They have about 3 facts on each team and repeated them over and over.

Odigie hits a pair of free throws, giving him team-high 11 points

Has hit 4 of 6 FGs
