Hunt block and Mike with the layup. 37-38. Travel...our ball.

[HarvCrimYaleBlue]

37-42. Timeout Cincy. SMU can’t hit anything. Stone cold. Not looking very promising.

It's over , they fought hard.

Moral victories are fun

FINAL
Cincinnati 52, SMU 49

[Charleston Pony]

pretty simple; guys fought hard and played tough D but we just don't have a lot of talent offensively. McMurray tries but can't carry the full load against reasonably talented teams, which Cincy is...but they don't look like a team that will represent the AAC well come tournament time. Announcers can say what they want but this is NOT a 4 bid league this year!

1st game I watched where they didn't talk about sanctions and injuries maybe I missed it

very early mention that Cincy was a very deep team and that SMU was thin because of injuries and sanctions but they didn't dwell on it.

[Charleston Pony]

Talk about no low post game; Cincy shoots 17-64 and still wins because they out rebound us 43-33 and mke 14-15 FTs compared to our 2-3. McMurray hitting 6-14 threes made it a game tonight. Rest of our team 0-11 on threes. Another tell tale sign of our lacking bigs...Jimmy Whitt is once again our leading rebounder...seems like game after game that is the case.

[HarvCrimYaleBlue]

Frustrating thing is that down 2 with about a minute to go McM jacks a three with a ton on the shot clock. Go for the tie!

[Pony ^]

We are starting to become aggy...where moral victories are everything.

I’m more impressed with Vegas almost getting this spread spot on. Incredible especially considering we lost by 47 a few days ago

[ObeyMyDog]

We fought hard! So proud! Another reseat? Everyone wants to see proud teams fight!

Agree with you, HCYB, but McMurray was the whole offense tonight. Mike and Whitt produced little ... which is more than Chargois -- 0 points? What happened to him?

[SoCal_Pony]

Crowd seemed very sparse. I’m guessing less than half full for a ranked opponent.

Outside of McMurray, we shot 10-35 FG & 1-2 from FT

Moody Sadness.
