That's disrespecting UNC-Greensboro and UNC Asheville!

Absolutely incredible that we are only down 7 after playing by far our worst basketball of the season so far in this game

This looks like an intramural game. It's setting the sport back decades.

That has to be the ugliest half of basketball I've seen from SMU in years. We stunk last year but I don't ever remember them playing this poorly. Williamson, Phelps & Harris go a combined 2-16. We stopped moving the ball at times and went into hero one on one mode which rarely ends well for this team

Balanced scoring again tonight from SMU...the only problem being none of the 7 guys who scored in that half scored more than 4 points. Can only hope they wake up at half and come out and play the 2nd half like we've seen for the majority of this season. If this ugly play continues, they look like they will be on their was to losing the next 2 games and watching their season come to an end after a 1st round exit from the AAC Tourney

For all of SMU's offensive dysfunction, Phelps' jumper made it a one-possession (34-31) game
