(I know — bad form to quote your own post)
Marcus W also had a really nice play in the early minutes of the game where he outjumped two McNeese players while flying over the end line to tip a rebound to Davis ... and somehow landed between several cheerleaders without landing on any of them or rolling an ankle while trying to avoid a collision.
Pretty sure that one won't get into the box score...

Davis has a very quiet 9 points (just 2 of 9 from the floor) and SMU leads 55-43 with 13:45 remaining in second half

Since missing his first free throw, Davis has hit 7 straight — now has 11 points
Nutall's second 3 gives SMU 60-45 lead

McNeese's Kellon Taylor, who has a game-high 6 rebounds, is down on the court getting his right knee looked at with 11:41 to go. Seems to be in a lot of pain. Assistant coaches carrying him off the court — feet barely touching the ground.

Jasey dives, beats 3 Cowboys to the loose ball, passes to Nutall who feeds Bandoumel for open dunk.
Too bad Jasey won't get an assist for that.
SMU 64, McNeese 47

Jasey/Clark combo in 30 minutes has 12 points, 10 rebounds, 4 blocks and 4 steals. Pretty good big man production

Four guys in double figures so far. I could get used to watching 5-6 guys hitting double figures most nights. Good balanced scoring from this bunch. Lots of fire power
