Official Game #1 Thread: SMU vs. TCU

[bubba pony]

SMU played 11 players. more options over last year. nice win over a big 12 school.

[SmooBoy]

SMU beats Big 12 team. I'll take it.

[ponyboy]

Frazier had 11 off the bench.

Good game. Now to decide whether to stay for Baylor.

Yeah. Time to go get a second beer.

With no Jalen Jones and terrible free throws, I'll take any win. TCU is better this year, too. Disappointed with Yannick if he only has 2 points. And Kennedy. Disappointed in his lack of production as well.

Moreira is not here to be a big scorer; his D and work on the boards is a huge plus compared to what he had (or should I say lacked?) last year. I agree we missed our 6th man - Jalen is "instant energy"

[SoCal_Pony]

the fact that SMU radio has not mentioned Jalen at all tonight and why he is not here is a little concerning to me.

If it was injury / sickness related, I think we would have heard about by now.

Agree 100% we need Jalen's 'energy'.

Thrilled to win, but disappointed in our performance. Poor f/t shooting, turnovers, and sloppy play against a short handed and inexperienced TCU team.

I saw a lot more talent out there tonight than last year. Whole new look. Just needs to come together.

[SoCal_Pony]

LB postgame interview, no mention of Jalen.

Really? I thought we looked pretty good. The talent is obvious. This was the first game these guys have played together and it will take a while.

Thanks to everyone who provided info on the game.

[SoCal_Pony]

who would question LB

I have no problem questioning him, he was out-coached a bunch last year

I was thinking of LB vs all the coaches SMU has had in the recent past...FB included

[mrydel]

LB postgame interview, no mention of Jalen.

Did he mention that Frazier will get no extracurricular action tonight? He took a hard hit in the twins.
