I think the team was reacting to the bad news we got last week with a solid performance.

We had five players in double figures. We cut our turnovers almost in half with 9.

Three of our players who have not been scoring very much stepped up to double figures.
(Brown, Manuel, & Ben Moore) Our passing was much crisper. Our energy level on defense
was more intense. We played a full game without having long dead periods in our game.

If we can now have a game like this on the road and beat Tulane, I think this team will
continue to get better.

Ecu is horrible. It was solid but would've been horrible if it was close.

I think we will play well at Tulane.

Man, I don't know. ECU looked horrible, but some of that goes SMU's way. I see things gelling right now us.

Very quick ball movement, especially in the second half. That really stood out. the intensity on defense energized the ball movement on the offensive side.

We just look like a team with something to prove.

As I recall, in the games where we didn't turn the ball over so much we won going away. Keep the TOs to under 10 and we will be fine.

We still had that "deer in the headlights" look for much of the Temple game….even a bit during the run back into it from 13 down. If we can play turnover free, smart basketball on the road for full games we'll be pretty damn good. If not it will be much of the same frustration we witnessed at Indiana and Cincy. Those are two we could have/should have.

I do think that Sterling is a more confident player than Keith and that my help.

The forced tightening of our rotation is going to help us a ton. Guys will know their role and find their rhythm. The way sterling played, I'm not even worried.
