No.

But enjoying a Bloody Mary from a beachfront patio in Santa Barbara.

SMU scores out of the timeout when Nat Dixon hits Jamal McMurray on a post pattern.

SMU 63, ORU 45

Official timeout as Isiaha Mike leaves the court, bent over at the waist and wincing. Might have "taken a knee" on his last drive to the hoop.

67-53

Not surprisingly, ORU chucking up 3s in effort to catch up. Now 12/24 from long range, narrowing gap to 67-56

9 pats noe

Correction-7

Got a little closer there in the later part of the second half.

That was the opposite of inspiring.

And TCU beat them by 17? Ooops!

Meh. We had a 19 point halftime lead and won by a dozen.

So many closeups of the "Mob" looking like they are at a funeral. No cheering or even smiling. Just standing there looking glum. I'd almost rather see empty seats.

Even worse about the mob, many were sitting. NO emotion whatsoever. In the glory days, NO one sat!

What about the adult fans? How many of them showed up?

Based on the past several games, I expect the score to be more like 81-70, however.

Pretty close: 79-67. Exceeded expectations offensively and defensively in the first half, which was great. The second half was horrible on defense.

Really like the movement on offense, we look much better. Mike is continuing to come alive, which is really important. The improvement on that end is good enough to keep us from getting run out of the building in the next two games. There might be something to that "we couldn't run a practice" thing.

That said, the defensive problems are going to prevent us from really competing to win either of the next two games unless we see significant improvement. We got one half today, maybe we can up it to two.

Hunt is really starting to do some neat things athletically. Very promising.

Douglas - sick or just relegated to the back of the rotation?

I don' think you're supposed to ask.
