Now that was better offensive execution

Matt Cross the only player on either team with 2 fouls (not that players on both teams aren't trying ΓÇö bodies have been hitting the floor throughout)

I swear we are sloppy w/passes.

UNI has missed 6 of last 8 shots
SMU has hit 5 of last 7

SMU 27, UNI 25

Alley-oop to Hornseth puts UNI back in front, 30-28

Yi─ƒito─ƒlu has game-high 6 rebounds (3 offensive)

Anderson layup makes him the first on either team to double digits with 10 points

Great hustle by Cross, who chased a play down from behind to make a steal

Traore layup puts SMU back ahead, 33-32

HALFTIME

Congrats to B.J. Edwards for his 79th steal of the season (according to ESPN bos score), That makes him tied with Gerald Lewis for the most steals in a single season at SMU. Hopefully he breaks that record in the 2nd half because we are going to need to play great defense to win this game

Thankfully we have a big advantage on the boards because this offense really misses Boopie

SMU is 2/10 on 3s ΓÇö coupled with Clemson game and the Mustangs have hit 3 of last 24 from 3-point range over their last three halves

UNI has hit 5/16 (31%) from 3-point range

Panthers have shot 37.0% from long range over the season

Backdoor layup puts UNI ahead, 34-33

Yi─ƒito─ƒlu powers through Hutson, leads SMU with 9
