Just left will call. There are only seats in the top 6 rows of 206. A handful of the padded seats (a dozen), and maybe 150 in the corners.

Ticket office didn't open until 5:30...

This will be a sell out.

Good start. Keep the energy up - and make free throws.

Great crowd. Love the students. But way too many season ticket holders/donor seats sitting empty.

Problem is it's hard to body up on rebounds when you're in a zone. They can really jump.

The red with the full head of hair is BS. He's made three terrible calls already.

Not real happy with the refs so far. Brandon gets hacked, no call, Nic Moore gets the ball and comes up swinging elbows, no call, then they call a ticky tack foul against us on the other end.

Harrison needs to show up.
Cannot beat these guys without 15 plus from Shaquille.

Is Big E not capable of making a layup? He has been open and they pass up the chance time and again.

Playing sloppy. Lots of whistles. But still in the game.

I expect Shaq's ankle is still bothering him. They can take a while to heal. You can't run well, you can't cut with a bad ankle.

Shaq and TU née to adjust. They are doubling Shaq off the pick every time. He can't beat two guys to the hole. He needs to hit the roller or, if they sag, hit the guy in the corner. Someone is open everytime they double him.

10/26 from the field. 5/12 three balls. 5/7 assists to turnovers. 5/12 rebounds.

SMU shooting nearly 50% from the field. 10 assists and 4 turnovers.


Turnovers hurt. Assists = high percentage shots.

Tulsa either not looking for that person. Or not quick enough.

I think everyone now knows what you need to compete at the top of this conference. You need bigs lots of them. That can shoot. You need outside shooters also. Tulsa is kind of in the middle on both. Not great at either.

Lazy screen from Wright leads to turnover. We are definitely not playing to our strengths.

If these announcers would quit sucking Larry Brown they might be able to actually announce the game.

I like how SMU shows how to rebound missed shots. They have perfect position to get offensive rebounds. We tend to get pushed under the basket too much and are not as effective.

3 missed layups.

Precious few open looks. We are NOT finding the open man.

We are about an inch off tonight. Shots, rebounds, passes, and they are killing it from the field.
