We were hopeful to be on the cusp of Top 25 at this point. SMU needs this win. The Tulane loss hurt but we were without an over-performing freshman that stretches defenses and can hit the outside 3.
I've watched Cincy and thought they would be more efficient offensively. That being said, as always, Cincy is tough defensively. I expect Cincy to be at the cusp of Top 10 by seasons end.
Tomorrow's game should be interesting. If we keep Chargois out of foul trouble early and Ben E hits his outside 3s, it should be a very solid game. If you guys jump on us early and Chargois gets early fouls, we could be in trouble for the whole game.
My prediction: Cincy 68 SMU 66. Game won in the final minute.
Good luck. Stay warm. It was 60 in Dallas today.
BTW, are there any Corvette enthusiasts here. There's a place in Cincy called SevenHillsMotorCars and from time to time he has an old Vette that I'd like to consider buying. I'd love to have someone take a look for me and give me a thumbs up/thumbs down before i fly in. A good steak and scotch would be in order.
