GAME THREAD: MBB vs. Wichita State

[Charleston Pony]

Have to anticipate WSU switching defenses here; probably a one possession win it or lose it

[tristatecoog]

Crap. Both my teams lose tight games. And now the Cowboys?

[PonyPride]

Up next: Thursday (1/26) at Memphis

SMU falls, 71-69

Falls to 7-13 / 2-5 AAC

[Charleston Pony]

Good day for road teams in the AAC today. Tough game to lose, especially at home. Only positive was that the guys never gave up. Next loss @ Memphis Thursday

Crap. Both my teams lose tight games. And now the Cowboys?

Have to assume the Cowboys will lose @ SF. Thought our guys had a chance to win a game against a lower level AAC team in Moody today. Looks like ECU in Moody might be our best hope for another win. I thought USF would be an opportunity until they appear to have improved lately

[Charleston Pony]

SMU got 60 shots today vs WSU's 49 but they shot a higher percentage (45% vs our 38%) and they made as many FTs (24) as our guys attempted, plus we made our usual 2 of 3 FTs, leaving points on the board

[tristatecoog]

Yep. This was a rather must win. Good comeback but fell short.

FTs were the difference at UH too. But what do you do about that? More FT practice this week? Memphis is hot with road wins at Temple and Cincinnati.

[Charleston Pony]

Yep. This was a rather must win. Good comeback but fell short.

I did feel like it was a must win to avoid the cellar of the AAC but we are right back in that race

[redpony]

looks like our bball team is the worst, just like our a.d. and pres. nothing new here, move on to next year when we will likely see a wash, rinse, repeat.

[mtrout]

must win...lmao

[used to be 2]

Thinking about the old SWC and where SMU has been performing on a long term basis vs what the following teams have done. Larry Brown short period excluded.

Houston
Baylor
TCU
Texas Tech
Texas
