Stressful Thursday evening

Post by purduedavie »

My two favorite teams had games going on at the same time last night and it was brutal! Purdue beat the hated Hoosiers in Bloomington and the Ponies I think clinched a NCAA birth with a gritty win against a good Temple squad! Ryan Manual your table is ready, that guy has been a life saver this year for a SMU team that has had it's share of punches to the face! This time of the year is awesome, bring on March!!

The Tulsa game will mark the end of our seniors at Moody. Cunningham and Manuel have seen the worst of times and now close to the best (with hopes for even better).

I truly believe the Mustangs have a great shot at a sweet 16 birth, my only worry is outside shooting, wish they had a skilled marksmen on the roster!

Outside shooting is definitely our biggest weakness. Everyone thought Justin Martin would be that guy.

Nic can shoot it in spurts and Manual a little as well, wish they had a Brady Heslip type that could live on a Moore penetrate and dish! Still, a dangerous out in the tourney because they play great D, have nice size underneath, and a hall of fame coach roaming the sidelines.
