MUST WIN GAME!!!! LFG!!!!!

Since Houston vs. Wichita is on just before SMU, can we all just assume that one will go into OT?

Either that or it will take 10 minutes to play the final minute. Anything to postpone the start of our game! Just hope we can keep the Moody streak alive. SMU is one of only 16 D-I programs that has played 10 or more home games and is still undefeated at home.

With back to back games on the flagship and another overlapping on the deuce, the AAC has an opportunity to showcase the level of basketball it plays. Let's hope our guys come out raining threes, the great "equalizer" in today's game.

I remember during the Doherty years that Memphis was THE big game of the year. We'd be in those wooden seats and Memphis fans were enthusiastic but weird. They wore big blue glasses with lights, big hats and the like. Fun group. There may be a solid group of Memphis fans today as well since they're on a roll. Pony Up!

Kendric Davis is on the floor, warming up with his teammates

Memphis comes in with a record of 15-8 overall, 9-4 in AAC games.

Tigers are streaky, with winning streaks of 5, 3 and 6 (current) games, and losing streaks of 4 and 3

A little pre-game jawing between teams. Tigers came out of tunnel in northeast corner of the court and passed near some of the Mustangs going through layup lines. Not sure if that's the reason.

Teams back to warming up normally.

Obviously not full-speed, but Davis seemed to be moving pretty well.

Davis at 75% is still our best player.

I would be upset - but we need Wichita to pull this off!
