GAME THREAD — MBB vs. Cincinnati

[PonyPride]

Smith cans a 3 to pull it to 16-13

[Charleston Pony]

Phelps making some poor decisions and forcing things. Would help if we could make the bunnies when put back attempts are there!

[PonyPride]

After missing first 8 FGs, Bearcats have hit 4 of last 5, 6 of last 9, 7 of 10

[PonyPride]

Nutall midrange jumper closes Cincinnati lead to 19-17

[Charleston Pony]

Nutall showing he can hit shots inside of 15 feet...a lost art for too many guards these days

[PonyPride]

Cincinnati's Ody Oguama and SMU's Jalen Smith with 2 fouls each

Nutall makes 1 of 2

21-18

[PonyPride]

Cincinnati has 18 points from Adams-Woods (10) and Nolley (8)

The other 7 Bearcats who have played have combined for 5 points

[Charleston Pony]

Odigie has that "score 1st" mentality. Sure would like to see him kick the ball out more often but consistently once he touches it he's looking to make a move and score. Leads to too many turnovers or forced shots and misses

[Charleston Pony]

And then Odigie hits the J just to spite me

[PonyPride]

Odigie hits 17-footer off the inbound from Phelps, Lakhin answers for Cincinnati, which leads 25-20

[Charleston Pony]

Williamson always fills up the stat sheet with hustle plays...rebounds, blocks, steals and is hopefully coming around with his shooting

[PonyPride]

Nether team has scored back-to-back field goals since a layup and 3-pointer gave Cincinnati a 12-6 lead with 10:41 left in the half

Cincinnati now leads, 25-22, with 3:19 to go before halftime

[Charleston Pony]

With Phelps back and having taken 6 shots in limited minutes, Todorovic hasn't even taken a shot yet

[Charleston Pony]

No sooner do I make the Todorovic comment than he bricks a three. Hopefully that ball was tipped

[PonyPride]

DeJulius drains a 3 ... and gets fouled by Odigie, hits the FT — 4-point play puts Cincinnati up, 29-22
