And we win by a slim margin - after the last shot it was nice to see the SMU fans go nuts

Rack and Killen owe Dez big time for bailing them out. Ugly, but a win is a win. Great shot to win it. The streak is still alive.

OK I admit-a 2 point last minute victory against a heated rivals on the road IS better than a 1 point road victory against a heated rival.

Wow. Nice shot Dez! That was fun seeing the players run off the court.

Just about the ugliest 1st half I have ever seen on both sides. Played extremely tight, no agressiveness whatsoever. They trapped every time down the floor (which I would do against us also). Picked up dribbles almost every possession, no cuts to the basket. Way too tenative.

I think Roberts should bring the ball up more often. He actually can handle the ball better than Killen. W/out the crossover, Killen is dead in the water against a good defender.

Questionable calls all night. Someone said Dez traveled before the shot, I didn't see that.

Wall (#11) is a smart player. He should be their starting PG. He made some great plays on our stupid mistakes. Rack - dude, what are you doing with the inbounds - almost cost us the game. Killen - ouch.

I'll take the W over the Frogs anyday. If we played smart down the stretch, it wouldn't have been close.

THANK YOU DEZ!

Wasn't pretty, but what a win! Beating the Frogs just feels so damn good, doesn't it????

I was scared of this game, and apparently with good reason. Who cares now .... scoreboard! We're 9-1, and they're not. Nice to see our boys play badly and still win over the MFFrogs!

Happy holidays, everyone!

Dez is a good guy and good player...im sure Huggins wish he never left K-State.

His only points of the game were the most important and im glad the ponies yet again beat those froggies.

Just back to Dallas from a game we probably deserved to lose. Out shot by the frogs, turnovers, missed free throws, serious problems inbounding the ball under pressure and the list goes on. Because of mistakes we could not build on our several 8 point leads in the 2nd half to put the frogs away. Our opponents are really taking advantage of our poor guard play. Anyone know if Fall is injured. He came out with 4 fouls with a lot of time left and I do not believe he returned.

I just got back too, man what an exciting finish! I'm sure Killen is a great guy, but he is STILL a turnover just waiting to happen. It scares me to death, everytime he has the ball.

We just got back, too! Stopped to have a late dinner in the mid-cities. Screw Fort Worth. I wouldn't leave a penny in that town!

GOD I LOVED WATCHING THE FROG FANS GO MUTE ON WILLINGHAM'S LAST-SECOND SHOT!

For those of you who didn't make the 45-minute 'road trip' to Fort Worth to see this game, shame on you! To those of you who were there, props! We showed what SMU SPIRIT IS ALL ABOUT! NEVER SAY QUIT!

Dez Willingham gets the game ball! AWESOME!!!!!!

Wouldn't that be a 2-point last second victory?
