Ah, you're right. Misread the history section (loss to Rice in the regular season right before the first round match).

So 9 game losing streak.

Well I have great news for everyone. I will not be making the trip to Hartford so therefore a conference tourney win is assured. We are 0-4 in the 4 tourneys I have attended and therefore a bona fide tourney jinx. I'll never forget losing in Fresno to Hawaii on the first afternoon and then wondering what the hell I was going to do in Fresno for 3 days.

I will however be in attendance wherever and whenever we go dancing!

I'm ready for Jimmy Tubbs to longer be an answer to an "SMU hoops bar trivia" question.
