00:00 After dominating the series with seven straight wins, SMU defeated UAB 72-69.
00:09 Now the key to tonight's matchup was getting the ball out quickly.
00:12 UAB was in a full court press for a majority of the game, which allowed SMU to push the
00:16 ball up in transition and lead to some pretty easy fast break points.
00:19 Now offensively, the scoring was a lot more spread out tonight with four different players
00:23 scoring in double digits and leading the way was Chuck Harris and Zirk Phelps who both
00:27 registered 14 points, 5 assists, and 3 rebounds.
00:31 Head coach Rob Lanier said post-game that the energy tonight is what made him think
00:34 that they were never going to lose this game.
00:36 He said even when they were down by 10, he still knew they were going to pull away the
00:40 win.
00:41 SMU is now 7-0 in their last seven home games and will be back in action when they travel
00:45 to Rice to take on the Owls at 7 p.m. this Wednesday.
00:48 For all things SMU basketball, tune into Spectrum Cable Channel 15 every Wednesday and Thursday
00:53 night at 11.
