What a game. Great season. Can't wait for next year.

Congrats to LB and the team! Great year!


True, but being up by 7 with less than 4:00 in the game, we win these games 80%+ of the time.

Very frustrating.

There a number of things we could have done better.

But what lost us the game was Manuel losing control of the ball on 2 or 3 straight fast breaks with less than 4 minutes left.

Completely kept us from building a lead and led to big momentum plays for them.

Very sad right now, but proud of our team.

Great game, great season SMU.

Transition game was the key late in this game. Transition BBall has been our Achilles heal. That should be a major focus for us next year,

Gave it away. We were the better team. MK kind of disappeared offensively at times and then Manuel handed it to them. Great season but this will leave a bad taste. I don't mind getting beat by a better team. But we handed it to them. Pitino has LBs number.

It's a shame he doesn't have any other speed than "bullet train".
