Official: AAC Tournament Thread - SMU vs. UCONN (The Ship)

[StallionsModelT]

When we don't turn the ball over and defend the three its going to be very, very tough to beat us.

I agree, but them we need to do better in our early season OOC games. High RPI is because of who we played...but let's get that high seed because we beat those teams.

Agreed 100%, next year we get some of those big games at home. We need to win them, then I assume we will be seeded appropriately.

Good half SMU! Keep it going for the win!

Gotta beat that little wuss Boatright. Don't let that emotional little girl beat ya!

Ha. Exactly. Shut him out and shut him up.

The conference has been beneficial for us because all of our games are now televised, but I agree, nobody respects the conference. Look at the seeds our NCAA Tourney teams got last year. And this year with an RPI of 13, we're projected to be a 6-seed.

so the RPI matters when it benefits certain schools, and doesn't matter other times. Some times the eye test is used as the most important thing. well we passed the eye test last year. and this year. and the RPI test suggests a 4 seed. what test will they use to hose us?

Nic has only 3 points. They seem to be playing somewhat of a box in 1 on him.

Keep it up in the 2nd half Ponies.

Only way for confernce to get respect will be consistantly performing, for Houston yet and UCF to get their stuff together, and for the AAC to get a member on the committee.

A conference with temple, memphis, uconn, smu, Tulsa and Cincy should always be competing to be in the top five of all basketball conferences. Even in this down year the AAC is better than the Pac 10 mountain west, and probably the sec.

[Mustangs35SMU]

Count it! And one!

UConn is gonna come out fired up and make a strong run, we need to have the same defensive intensity for the second half. We are going to have to hit some more outside shots as well because Purvis and Boatright will get a couple.

[PonyFan32]

Time for an unpopular opinion: As far as other teams' players go, I like Boatright. And one whiny performance is not going to change that. I think he is one of the more entertaining people to watch when he is on, and I think he is underrated because last year he shared a backcourt with Shabazz.

That said... I hope he goes scoreless this half and we win by 20.

[Mustangs35SMU]

Three point play, 36-19 Ponies.

Cunningham is not that good at passing the ball out before the double team comes.

[Mustangs35SMU]

NIC FINALLY!!

On the board.

[Mustangs35SMU]

Get to 65 and we'll win.
