UNT on fire. This is looking like it will be a 40 minute survival contest. Will SMU have the deeper bench?

UNT on fire. This is looking like it will be a 40 minute survival contest. Will SMU have the deeper bench?

The first time the teams played, UNT only played 3 games off the bench — SMU played 5

Remember, no Ricardo Wright today ... and UNT already has 9 minutes from guard Matt Stone, who didn't play in the first meeting.

Robert Allen hits 2 FTs — UNT leads 27-18

SMU has hit 6 of last 8 shots ... but not making up a lot of ground, because UNT also has hit 6 of last 8
