We cannot stop PG penetration.

But the silver lining in all of this is that they still have to go back to El Paso.

Ryan Harp has gone backwards the last 3 weeks, kind of like the whole team.

Maybe their 3 point shooter will ask for asylum.

UTEP is playing more freshmen than SMU is.

Well, pretty good first half. Better than expected. This game, and season for that matter, is indicative of our youth. Signs of promise, but dominated by inconsistency and stupid mistakes. I'm not as down on our future as some.

Utep is a pretty good team and we are playing well, albeit rather streaky.

Walker's possession towards the end of the first half was as UGLY as I have seen this season, thankfully Harp managed to get the o-rebound off his airball and put it back for 2. I thought Killen was headed for a similar possession to end the half and he came up with an impressive bucket!

52-47 Utep with 14 minutes left in the game. We are not taking care of the ball to start the second half, but overall I think we look pretty good. Lets hope we do not fade like we have been lately.

Utep up by 9 now with 13 minutes to go. Our last possession we just had 3 near turnovers and an eventual one by Harp. Not taking care of the ball...

You have to pull a gun on Harp, to get him to shoot.

Killen for 3! Down by 6 with 12+ min to go.

We are turning the ball over practically every other possession (I am possibly being generous in that estimate)- now down by 11....

Something else that sux, is our shoes! It's like we're on ice skates.
