Jolly on fire and Temple getting sloppy. Now just finish!

[mustangxc]

A tale of two halves is right! I still think we need to be more disciplined on offense and fortunately have done that the last few possessions to extend the lead.

TYSON JOLLY

Twisting layup by Monty Scott waved off because of offensive foul

58-47

[mustangxc]

As soon as I say something complimentary they run two horrible plays back to back on offense. Fortunately Temple is playing rattled.

[PonyPride]

Jolly now has 25 points, 12 rebounds

Hunt hits 2 FTs

SMU 64, Temple 49
1:25 to go

[PonyPride]

Jolly shows smarts: gets wide-open 3, pauses, passes back out ... after which Davis drives for lay-up. Jolly could have padded stats, but opted to burn clock.

[PonyPride]

Lots of guys making extra pass — this time, Mike passed up possible dunk to hand off to Hunt for easy dunk.

68-52 with 40 seconds left

FINAL

SMU 68
Temple 52

Another conference win

[mustangxc]

Big win! Temple is a good team and it’s nice to put them away comfortably at the end.

[Charleston Pony]

Temple will be a tough return trip. That was as uncomfortable a "comfortable" win as we've had this year. Amazing to win by double digits when we shot threes as poorly as we did

[Charleston Pony]

Plus 12 rebound advantage for SMU. Jolly had a monster game after a tough 1st half.

Came close to having 4 guys put up double/doubles tonight

[Terry Webster]

They made some great halftime adjustments also.
