Nice to get paid to go to a place and walk away with a hard earned victory. By the way the reason Thomas played so much was because Fulks was having a hard time handling the quickness of the Mustang guards when he was on defense. He also was off on his shot tonight. Yes, Thomas struggled with his ball handling but he had 6 assists and a key basket late. Let's hope Terrance Lewis is OK. If he is out for awhile it will hurt us.

Lewis actually came back in late I’m pretty sure.

This is a fun team to watch. PG is a concern but #2 played solid down the stretch. Fulks was off tonight after looking good against Ruston.

Winning on the road is tough. Props to this team for getting it done. I have not followed basketball much the last couple of years but have really enjoyed watching our team this year.

He didn’t

Was it him or Williams with what looked like a butterfly bandage on his eyebrow?

Williams

Williams. Didn’t bother his shooting though

With great opportunities comes ever greater expectations. I fully recall the attitude of Lafayette, and USL students in the Shipley/Bo Lamar era, bring’um on. We got the hosses to beat y’all.

Didn't see him. Joe Charles played for him

Our pg's do way to much dribbling

Thomas does. It's got to be fixed

[zephyr]

Stats say fulks played 11 minutes. I don’t think it was that many. Maybe big fish tried to rest the starters a lot in the first half to wear smu out in the second.

Fulks was not that effective. Didn't hit any outside shots when they doubled off him and he made poor decisions. I want to see Dalcourt in his replacement versus Thomas.

I agree. Fulks struggled tonight. Couldn't hit anything and he was not guarding as well as he has in the past. MT has his flaws. He dribbles too much which I've mentioned many times on these threads but he found a way to help us down the stretch. This may have been a grow up game. Lewis and Fulks out of the rotation and we had to rely on Thomas, Dalcourt ( who should be playing more) and Charles. Could have been a blessing in disguise
