GAME THREAD - MBB vs USF

[Charleston Pony]

brick after brick after brick today. Our guys are just choking today

[PonyPride]

This free throw shooting. . .

12/25 from the line
down 13 (68-55)

[crazy horse]

This is so sad. USF is a very beatable team.

[Charleston Pony]

about to become a blowout. Our team is just not good enough to beat good teams on the road. Hopefully they can defend Moody and it will come down to having to win @ UAB to finish 4th but I'm not sure we have the fire power to accomplish that. 5th place 12-6 finish in AAC play and NIT bid will still be a big improvement in year two but this team is really going to need help in the portal to replace Tyreek Smith and Williamson and compete in the ACC

[Charleston Pony]

Williamson Harris & Phelps now 6-32 today

[Charleston Pony]

SMU with no answer for Pryor like we had no answer for Goldin Thursday. Doesn't bode well for our AAC Tourney chances

[HorsePower]

Mustangs will be shooting tons of FTs this week
Bulls will be doing rebounding drills
Sigh ...

Doesn't Tyreek have the option for another year?
Got to think there will be more moving on after this year.

[PonyPride]

Williamson misses a pair from the line. SMU now 14/29 from the line.

[PonyPride]

Mustangs have missed 8 of their last 10, 10 of last 13 — trail 75-62 with 48 seconds left

[PonyPride]

Phelps, Harris and Williamson: 8/38 FGs

[PonyPride]

Just like that, Williamson hits 3 shots in about 15 seconds. Now has 12 points.

[PonyPride]

FINAL
USF 79, SMU 68
SMU falls to 19-9 overall, 10-5 AAC
Up next: 2 PM next Saturday (March 2) vs. UTSA at Moody Coliseum

[Charleston Pony]

SMU leaves 8-10 points at the FT stripe today. Just a horrible shooting performance but I'm not sure we can beat the Florida teams on a neutral court in Ft Worth. Those teams just have better shooters than we do

[Charleston Pony]

SMU with a 27-4 advantage on offensive rebounds. As poorly as we shot today, USF wins this game by 30 points without that effort on the boards
