GAME THREAD: MBB vs. Alabama State

[Charleston Pony]

ASU does a good job protecting the ball. They only have 2 turnovers to our 6 and that's helped them take 4 more shots than our guys did in that half

[Charleston Pony]

Boopie 0-7 FGs including 0-6 from three while Edwards, Harris & Oquendo go a combined 10-14 and 4-7. Have to believe Boopie gets his points in the 2nd half but I wonder if he's 100% because his shots have come up short like he's playing tired tonight

SMU outscoring ASU, 8-2, in second half

58-41

[PonyPride]

Yiğitoğlu with two big dunks and a put-back in second half

For the game: 11 points, 8 rebounds

SMU 62, ASU 44

[Charleston Pony]

SMU up 18 and now has an 18 rebound advantage. Four guys in double figures and 2 more about to join them. Team looking pretty good this half and moving the ball well

[PonyPride]

Hornets comfortable living and dying by the 3 — have hit 12 of 33 from long range in the game, 2 of 6 in the second half

SMU 65, ASU 47

Is the announcer saying "o-KWEN-do"?

Isn't it like the old St. Louis Cardinal ... "o-KEN-do"?

Since you asked, I checked.

The announcer is right. It's oh-QUEN-doh

[PonyPride]

Nice 3 by Tibet Görener, who shot-putted a pass to Oquendo ... who watched it fall through the net untouched.

Next times down the floor, Oquendo with a big dunk and a cross-over for a layup

SMU 75, ASU 51

[PonyPride]

Back-to-back 3s give Oquendo 10 points in last 1:32 — nobody else from either team has scored in that stretch.

ASU timeout to slow the bleeding.

SMU 81, ASU 51

[Charleston Pony]

Oquendo is on fire and the rout is on

[Charleston Pony]

Six guys in double figures lead by Oquendo's 20 points on 7-8 FGs including 4-5 threes

[Charleston Pony]

Cross with a double double and Samet could join him before this one is over

[PonyPride]

Colbert grabs offensive rebound, takes about 4 steps — no whistle — and lays it in

83-53

[PonyPride]

A.J. George 3 makes it 92-67 with 4:46 to go

[PonyPride]

Mustangs with SIX in double figures

Oquendo: 20
Yiğitoğlu, Cross: 12
Edwards, Traore: 11
