SMU is a 5.5 point underdog tonight @ Wyoming...
Wyoming is 5-4 this season. 5-2 at home.

As cold as that campus is, wish I was there. There is no better place in the world than Wyoming, IMHO.

Western Wyoming (specifically northwestern Wyoming) is gorgeous.
Laramie is on the east side of the state, and it's .... not gorgeous. To help you with your mental picture: envision Waco with a bunch of country western bars, and a hell of a lot of drinking (seriously -- I read someplace that UW has the highest rate of alcoholism of any school in the country.)
Go Mustangs.

I think Waco's too big for a comparison. More along the lines of Plainview.

Bryan Hopkins is 0-5 in the first half. No points.
SMU down by 7.
Will the WY Cowboys ride the Ponies into the sunset???

ugly 1st half, for sure. We won't win many games if BHop goes scoreless. Getting whipped on the boards, too. Let's see how they come out in the 2nd half.

We sure are fouling a lot. Shots are coming up short too. Looks like the altitude is getting to us and we're tired.

Why can our program never shoot free-throws? 42% is terrible!

how about that low post offense tonite? Rack hitting 3-11 and Morris 1-9. These guys are supposed to be taking shots from high percentage territory. Ouch

Guess this is answering the question: Savannah St. really IS that bad and SMU really is NOT that good

At least the women stopped its losing streak and won a game tonight against UC Irvine.
