Just got home and tuned in. Looks like this one will be hard fought to the wire. UNT up 3 under 4 minutes to go in 1st half

Williamson with 9 1st half rebounds

Almost twice as many as the rest of the team combined!

[Charleston Pony]

Both teams playing tough defense but very few fouls being called. Lanier is the only guy with 2 fouls for SMU

[Charleston Pony]

Game getting a little chippy now. Going to see a lot more fouls called in this 2nd half. Will need to make FTs to win this one

[Charleston Pony]

SMU playing a little too much one on one ball for my liking. We have only 6 assists on 15 made FGs while UNT has 11 assists on 14 made FGs

[Charleston Pony]

Teams trading blows now. Game getting more physical and there have been as many fouls in the 1st 9 minutes of this 2nd half as there were in the entire 1st half. Who wants it more and who will make clutch shots?

[tristatecoog]

UNT is 3 of 11 from the line. That’s 4-5 points.
