Huge win!!!!! Beat Tulsa and Marshall to secure a winning season!!!!

That was a huge win. We looked great, especially Pop in the 1st and DW in the 2nd.

We shot 51% from the field and made 59% of our threes. WOW

61 points in the 2nd half...we've had many games where we didn't score 61 points

that was fun...now let's see if we can get at least one of these last two games. Guys are playing well right now. I like DWill dishing out those 8 assists against only 4 TOs. We need to see that 2:1 ratio every night out to be successful. What can you say about Papa...he's turning into the player we all hoped he would be. And Clink gave us some much needed scoring from someone else in the rotation.

This is a pretty good FT shooting team that all of a sudden can hold onto leads

Dia with a DOMINANT game. Check out this line for the big guy.

31 points, 11-13 FG, 9-11 FT, 12 reb, 2 blks, 2 assists, 1 stl. AWESOME. 1 negative, which has ben a problem for Dia in the past but as many touches as he had I have to give him a slight pass, 6 TOs.

one of the more fun games of the season. Houston stunk though. They had absolutely no front line whatsover. It was easy to see in the first 5 minutes that papa could get anything he wanted. You gotta think Penders time is up in H town.

Overall I would say Papa was better in the second half considering he had all of his turnovers in the first half! Great game overall!!!

Definitely one of the best home games in a while.
Dia was great. Career high for him? I didn't listen to post-game. Brown was lights out. When did
we last score 90 pts in conference?

That was a fun game tonight! Pony Up!

Now that was fun. Never thought I would see SMU score 61 in a half, much less the second half, in conference play. Dia dominated and really opened up the 3 point line and our shooters took advantage.

Great play by Faye, Clink, Nyk, DWill, and Papa and Haynes steal coming down the stretch was huge. SMU is really starting to execute this offense well and has put their own signature on it. Glad to see the kids playing hard and well.

One thing that cannot be ignored is Doherty, he has changed his coaching style, he is being much more easy going and letting the kds play. Lets keep it rolling and beat Tulsa on the Road Wednesday, we can do it!

Doh's postgame comments echo just what you said. He said "we put some things in, and let the kids play." I couldnt help but notice Doh be positive talking to the guys as they were coming over for a timeout.

How much of the credit for this about face belongs to Doh, and how much goes to the Reggies?

Either way credit Doh for hiring the Reggies.

Wednesday is going to be huge, if we beat Tulsa we set ourselves up Saturday to play for the fifth seed. Tulsa finishes at Memphis and we have Marshall at home and I believe we would hold the tie breaker against Tulsa because of our win over Memphis.

Let's come out Wednesday and show that we deserve a shot at the 5th seed!

Was my first game of the season. What a great game to see!
