GAME THREAD for MBB vs. Florida A&M

[PonyPride]

Players' coach: Andy Enfield just walked the length of the bench to yuk it up with Cross, Yiğitoğlu and Holmes with a little over 3 minutes left in the half ... while the game was going on.

Helps to be up more than 20 (44-21) in the first half, but still, not a lot of coaches do that.

[PonyPride]

Miller with a steal, followed by beautiful up-and-under reverse layup.
Ponies lead, 46-21

[Charleston Pony]

Edwards, Miller and Oquendo with 2 steals each. Our backcourt is quick on quick!

Edwards finds Miller cutting back-door along the baseline for an easy layup

Kaleb Washington hits a layup, giving FAMU field goals on back-to-back possessions for the first time in the game ... with 1:06 left in the first half

Miller ends the first half with a 3

Halftime: SMU 51, FAMU 29

[Charleston Pony]

SMU had 8 different guys score in that 1st half but welcome to The Hilltop Boopie Miller! What a player he's been in these 1st 2 games. He'll make us forget all about Zhuric Phelps

[Charleston Pony]

SMU with 11 assists vs 6 turnovers and shooting 58% FGs 44% threes and 92% FTs

[Charleston Pony]

Colbert picked up his 3 fouls quickly and both Traore and Keon have 2 fouls so once again our lack of available bigs is going to be a factor late in this game. Gorener is probably going to get more minutes tonight so let's see what he might do

[Charleston Pony]

Once again our guards are doing great work on the boards with 3 guys pulling down 4 boards each in that 1st half

[Higher Authority]

Boopie is putting on a clinic tonight

[Charleston Pony]

Love the ball movement and hustle this team is showing consistently. Haven't seen this kind of team basketball since the Larry Brown era at SMU

[Charleston Pony]

Three guys in double figures and I would expect Keon and Kario to join them soon. Great balance and I'm waiting on Gorener to score soon
