attendance was good-I thought at least 6000 actually in seats plus we filled out the missing student sections

SMU easily beat Stanford by more than Kansas, Miami and St. Mary's (Top 25) and they beat a 9-2 Seton Hall team

Crowd was much better than 4K.

Fantastic crowd . We showed well against Stanford and stayed till the end. I would guess 6K actual attendance plus the students were there.

Watching other college games during the winter break all I see are empty gyms. We show well at Moody and I'm sure the team appreciates the support. Of our road games Only BSU showed a decent crowd .

The rare back-to-back in college hoops. Albany comes into this game at 7-5. They won at Penn St but lost to Grand Canyon. Cincy beat them by 23.

They looked like they were playing a bit like Cinci plays. Tight defense, lots of tipped and kicked passes.

Movement and pick and rub, pick and roll were awesome last night.

Second game of a back to back means your legs get tired and you miss jumpers. Have to drive and get easy baskets to get up early. Can't let Albany hit threes because you will end up trading 2 for 3.
