GAME THREAD: MBB vs. Wake Forest

[PonyPride]

Parker Friedrichsen 3 ends streak of 8 straight Wake misses

[PonyPride]

Edwards layup stretches SMU lead to 18-10

[PonyPride]

Miller also averages 28.4 minutes, so it's worth watching how many more minutes will be given to Edwards, Chuck Harris, Kario Oquendo, etc., and to see if the Mustangs defend differently to try to minimize foul trouble on the remaining guards.

For what it's worth, Miller has not fouled out of a game this season and has collected four fouls in just three games.
