GAME THREAD: MBB vs Memphis

[PonyPride]

Outstanding passing by Mustangs to find open man

SMU 64-44

[mustangxc]

SMU up by 20!!!! Let's finish them!

[Mustangs35SMU]

Moody Magic.

[mustangxc]

Make that 22!

[Charleston Pony]

Announcer summed it up nicely...SMU thriving in the chaos!!! Never could have dreamed it would be this kind of game. Keep playing tenacious D

[PonyPride]

Davis has been fantastic coming off ankle injury — game-high 24 points
No Jasey (season)
No Tristan Clark (managing minutes?)
Jalen Smith has yet to play

... and Ponies lead by 22
66-44

[PonyPride]

A little over 33 minutes in, and only two Mustangs — Young and Agunanne — have 2 fouls

[mustangxc]

The announcers said at the beginning of the broadcast that Jalen Smith was out today so don't expect to see him play today.

[mustangxc]

Young and Agunanne have really stepped it up today. We needed that effort from some of our peripheral players and have gotten it so far.

[PonyPride]

Marcus Weathers follows missed Davis 3 with huge follow-up dunk

68-44
4:59 to go

[mustangxc]

Davis misses an open 3 but Marcus Weathers with a strong put back dunk for the exclamation! Temple was not our day, but it certainly looks like today IS our day!

It may have been pointed out upthread, but kinda cool that this game started at 2pm on 2/20/2022.

If we could only play this well and win on the road

[ponyboy]

And we are up 22 points.

We only need to do it one more time and it is a huge one at Houston next Sunday. I'll be sitting right behind the SMU bench. Win that and we would likely become locks for the NCAA tournament. Fingers crossed!
