Murray State fell behind early in the first half, and trailed at halftime 49-42. The deficit increased to as much as 18 points in the 2nd half before Murray State came back a little. But they never got closer than 6 points, and SMU won 102-91-

UIC pulled out to a big 1st half lead and cruised to the 98-55 win over NAIA St. Francis University-
 
If you didn't catch the end of this game, watch this complete bush league move by SMU - both teams totally back off and then their point guard drops a 3 to get to 100 points.

Edit: Watch the clip closely and you'll actually see their coach tell the guy to shoot it in sort of a flippant way, like stick it to them.

If that wasn't bad enough, the spread was either 9.5 or 10.5 points and it either way, it flipped the game. If you want to get your tin foil hat on, ho boy ... that one I'm betting will be reviewed for anything shady.

Coach Miller practically skipped the handshake line after that. I can't even imagine if someone did that to Coach Wardle.

What a disgrace that was in acting like you were just going to hold the ball and run out the clock. The one thing I wish was different is when coach puts our reserves in during the last 2 minutes and has them hold the ball at the end. I wish he would just let them play and shoot since they do not get a lot of floor minutes and i don"t think anyone would see a problem .
 
FBI needs to investigate....
with the point spread at 10.5, that shot flipped the entire payout - and you gotta wonder if either players
or maybe even the SMU coach (Andy Enfield) knew that and was acting to pad their own pockets?
