Praying to the alighty that Len Elmore isn't doing this game.

Why?

Not a fan. IMO worst color guy in the game right now. Doesn't to enough (any) homework, cliche-lover, and voice induces somnolence.

Disagree strongly. He's usually very good, he knows SMU and when paired with Adam Amin, they make a very good team.

Worst color guy by far is Bill Walton, by the way. He doesn't care about the teams, do any homework, or even try to talk about what's going on in the game (usually about himself or something he did 20 years ago). I guess he is colorful though.

Doris is the best

We're getting Jason Benetti & Miles Simon. Not my favorites, but Miles Simon does pay attention to SMU. Last week he dropped some random comments about SMU and Sterling's great year in the middle of a West Virginia game.

We're included in the weekly Journey to the Tourney "key matchups" here: http://espnmediazone.com/us/press-releases/2017/02/mcbbweekly-8/

I’ve been waiting for this rematch ever since I watched the Bearcats squeak by SMU, 66–64, in Fifth Third Arena on Jan. 12. The Mustangs haven’t lost since, and they are sparked by the terrific inside-outside presence of junior Semi Ojeleye, a 6' 7" transfer from Duke who had a career-high 30 points to go along with 10 rebounds in Thursday’s win over Temple. Ojeleye only had 12 points and three rebounds in the loss at Cincy, and his team still only lost by two. A better game from him, plus the homecourt advantage, should add up to an SMU win.

SMU 76, Cincinnati 70

I'll take 76 to 70, but think its gonna be more like 68 to 60.

[SmooBoy]

I don't see Cincy scoring over 60. Our D and possessions will prevent that.

I'm a Len Elmore fan.

Believe Doris is helping cover the UCONN women's game or wherever Gameday is.........seemed like they were taking about that during our broadcast last night.

Good listen. Cronin is very complimentary of SMU. Says we are a top 15 team in the nation and its not even close; we are the only elite team left on their schedule & he hopes to see us again in Hartford.

This game will be a total slugfest. Cincy is a really good team, but we are a good team too. I think 66-62 SMU, but a close one throughout. We need Shake or Sterling to have a big night and the other to play well. Semi will do good, but Clark is a top notch defender. Would love Jarrey to get back on track offensively, he does so much on D, rebounding and hustling. Should be an awesome game.

I won't be a bit surprised if it isn't a lot like last year's game, although hopefully without us digging such a big hole. I couldn't talk for two days...
