GAME THREAD: MBB vs. Cincinnati

[PonyPride]

Very weird to watch an SMU/Cincinnati game, and the Mustangs are the ones wearing black uniforms

Cincinnati on 8-0 run

Bearcats shooting 71% from the floor

24-16 Cincinnati

fast pace tonight

[Charleston Pony]

Took me a minute to realize we're honoring Cincy by wearing black. I don't like it or understand why we are wearing their colors.

I think our guys like the black unis

We have made some boneheaded mistakes like the Bandoumel pass to nobody which Cincinnati used to convert to a fast 2, but for the most part Cincinnati is shooting lights out which is totally out of character. We just have to weather the storm and hope they cool down towards the end of the half and into the second half.

[PonyPride]

Ponies have missed eight straight shots (inflated by a few put-back efforts after offensive rebounds ...)

[PonyPride]

Michael Weathers hits a pair of FTs to end a 10-point Cincinnati run

Cincinnati 26
SMU 18

[PonyPride]

Fans chanting "air ball" at KD after earlier miss (when he was fouled but no call) ... so he buries a fallaway 3

26-21

[Charleston Pony]

fast enough pace tonight that I expect to see several 8-10 point runs by either team. Nice that we finally have the depth to play that kind of game

Agreed. Cincinnati shooting has cooled off to 53% ... and the game is a 5-point game again

Refs stink

[PonyPride]

Bearcats have missed 10 of last 12

Cincinnati 31-23
5:04 to go in first half

[mustangxc]

Too many careless turnovers with wild passes. We need to play under control. Aside from that KD jumpshot we've had several offensive possessions end without a shot because of out of control passing that ends in Cincinnati hands. Cincinnati now heating up again.

[EastStang]

We’re not shooting well and playing sloppy

8-2 run puts Cincinnati up, 34-23
