MBB vs. New Orleans

[PonyPride]

Tyson Jolly has shown early on he can shoot. Through the first 1.5 games, he has hit 12 of 17 field goals and 3 of 6 three-pointers.

But He also has shown a willingness and ability to drive the lane, absorb heavy contact and still get the shot up, the kind of toughness needed in close games.

Nice recovery: CJ White had a bad giveaway ... but recovered to chase down UNO guard Troy Green and block the shot without committing a foul.

SMU 54, UNO 42

SMU with 31-21 edge on the boards, thanks in large part to game-high 11 from Hunt.

Meanwhile, it looks like only the 1500 showed up for this one...but it looked that way against Jacksonville State and that crowd was announced as 4,000.

Tate Lecture tonight. They need a Tate reseat.

Thanks PP for the updates. I can't get the webcast and the stat site is a tad slow.

looks like we want a nervous game 57-49 smu

I hate zone defense. Opens up wide looks on certain areas of the floor and gives a team a chance to catch fire from said open areas.

7-0 New Orleans run pulls Privateers to within 57-51

Jolly dunks off feed from White, now leads all players with 20
