Listen on the webcast while watching the stats. Incredible win given our shooting form 2 and 3. And to hit so many FT. What an effort when Cinny was shooting lights out at one time. Cinny had 24 + fouls and only had one guy foul out. Thats a lot of fouling to put SMU out of their rhythm.

Cincy shot better than our guys and got 7 more FG attempts and made 4 more threes than we did but super aggressive play by SMU made the fouls lopsided (27 for Cincy and 13 for SMU) and our guys made 33 FTs vs Cincy's 14. That was the difference but what a game!

Good chance these teams meet again in the AAC Tourney

Love the rebound effort and love that we went inside the paint to score when the 3s weren't available. Quality win in conference with an in game adjustment to Cincy's gameplay. Nice.

Congratulations on the great comeback, ponies!! Y'all certainly know how to make a game exciting, albeit stressful. Bring it home against Tulane.

Crowd was great at crunch time and that is really important in helping our guys finish strong but I hate seeing all those BMD courtside seats empty for such an important game

Not sure I liked the post game interview SMU just posted to Twitter with the Player of the game (MW) guaranteed a W on Sunday. Hope he backs it up because he just gave Tulane (a very good team) some added incentive.

That Marcus Weathers slam was a thing to behold.

Really disappointing this team hasn't gotten more support. Blame that on Hart & the reseat. At least the loyalists that are coming out have been enthusiastic and always good to see W and Laura in attendance

A friend that used to sit in red seats for $5k per ticket doesn’t come anymore and his old seats were empty last night. It felt like there were about 1000 less than Memphis but that was on a weekend. Students showed up nicely and all but one luxury box had people in it.
