They played extremely well for most of the Houston game but ran out of gas.

But at home, the home crowd can fuel you. I expect an all out battle with or without shake

SMU went on a 7-0 run to take a 7 point lead well into the 2nd half before the tides turned and Houston finished last night's game on a 17-1 run holding SMU without a field goal for the final 7 minutes of action.

McMurray and the freshman Douglas were hot in the first half combining for 26 of SMU's 33 points - mostly off 3s. They combined for 2 points in the 2nd half and SMU obviously lacked a go-to scorer down the stretch.

Yah...they are still better than most teams in the league even without Milton. I expect him to play though. They are still a good team.

Yeah I agree, especially after seeing them play that well at Houston. Couldn't believe they were in it til they final gave out. It's going to be a tough game for sure.

I think this game is a must win for us. I'm not liking the @Houston game on Thursday and we can't have back to back loses. It will be tough since it's at Moody and they have always broken our win streak there, but this team can do it. GO BEARCATS!!!

I think we win both games. We are the better team and I think the players understand they are chasing more then just a league championship. Really don't think focus will be a issue. If we are focused we have the talent to win both games. Houston blew a 18 point lead to us earlier. Don's think we dig a hole like that again.
