Very ragged game..
Too many o rebounds for SMU, esp. late.

Cook leads TU with 11, but it sure doesn’t look like he looks to share the ball ince he gets it.


This is game we should get so hoping for a better effort in the second half.


SMU announcers are amusingly (amazingly) homers disregarding a couple of major bad calls.

Forbes was covered for a long 3, so he backed up 2 feet and made it anyway.

Tulane wins 97-88. Big nights from Forbes and Cook. First 4 game wining streak since we've been in the AAC. First win there since 1991.

The road can be tough. We were tougher tonight in spite of the early second half struggle. We have some gamers on this team.

How good is that offense?, on the road, scored 63 pts in the 2nd half in a college game….. may of been close to 70! If not for the last minute.

Have not won there since 91, great win!

BC- Thanks for that for that play by play. (You might want to edit the final score).

Ken Pomeroy rankings are up to 82 now, highest in the state. We play UCF at home on Saturday who is in the 30s.

Even with Houston being ranked #1 the conference RPI is awful. Currently 10th even behind CUSA.
Probably a 2 bid league at best.

Tulane #102 in a bad league won’t cut it.
Garbage non conference schedules with some bad loses once again set us back and hurt our conference RPI.

OK. I guess we should just stop playing basketball. It's a lost cause and will never be any better. Hey, wait! Weren't you recently saying the same kinds of things about football?
