Nice preview.

Really looking forward to this game and I know it will be a very tough one for the Ponies to pull out.

This tweet and article has been getting some good play in Dallas:

“@BillyEmbody: Memphis F Shaq Goodwin on #SMU F Markus Kennedy: "I don't care for him." Tigers host #PonyUp on Thurs. at 8 p.m. CT."

Makes for an interesting side story and another angle to watch tonight.

Good Luck Tigers, hopefully we be an enjoyable and well played game.

Hopefully Goodwin can back up his talk. He's known to disappear in big games. And he and Austin can never seem to both have a good night.

Do we stay within 25?

Did you make the trip?

Nope can't do weekday games

Did these refs go to SMU or something? They suck.

Just saw that Memphis is playing tonight and Saturday. That's a tough turn-around, especially when it's against the two conference leaders...Damn...

Both are home games. And we're talking about teenagers.

I would just be worrie about installing a gameplan for both games... I mean.... If you had a coach who actually did that kind of thing.

Exactly. It won't make a difference either way

Let's Go Memphis! Clap. Clap. Clap-Clap-Clap

These announcers are clowns. They were saying how difficult it is to win 3 or 4 nights in a row in a conference tournament. They were struggling to come up with a name of a team that did it and they finally came up with Syracuse.

Anyone who knows a little about college basketball remembers UConn with Kemba Walker in 2011 winning *5* straight nights at MSG to win the Big East Tournament, and then winning 6 games in the NCAA tourney.

This is an AAC game and they overlook an historical achievement by UConn to guess "Syracuse"?

Pathetic.

Well one of them played for Larry Brown, so there's that.

I didn't realize SMU was so dirty.

This is an impressive foul differential.
