We can go 5-3 into the break

The ponies should be favored on Monday against UA Pine Bluff and be 5-3 going into the break. The team record is about where it should be at this point in the season, although I do not know what to predud for the rest of their schedule.

we had better be 5-3 at the break! That's probably what most expected with 6-2 having been on everyone's wish list. What it now comes down to is whether these guys are good enough to put together a 12-6 WAC season. If they could do that and win the all important bracket buster game, I think an NIT bid would follow. It's possible an 11-7 WAC record, a bracket buster win and a 1st round tourney win would get it done (that would mean an 18-11 year). I don't know what to think going into WAC play. We could get swept by most of our WAC opponents and I don't see too many I think we can sweep, so these guys are really going to have to step it up to see the post season.

8-8 in WAC maybe

Unless the adjustment in the Baylor game has solved the lineup problems for good, SMU may only get an even split in WAC. IF we end up with a winning season, many of us with be satisfied for now.

Absolutely we'll be favored tonight. Pine Bluff lost to Baylor, and that was before Baylor had Bush (their good player - the one who transferred from LSU).

Isn't Pine Bluff the team that plays road games only?

We need a decent crowd tonight. It's a good night for basketball, PonyFans - see you at Moody.

And Cowboy .... BREAK OUT THE HAT!

boy Otto you sure know how to hype a game and excite the masses!!! Worse than Baylor before they had Tim Bush. What time do we have to get to the ticket booth to assure ourselves of a seat?
