SMU Scores Only 28 Points In Loss To UAB

That's right, the SMU Mustangs couldn't get out of the 20's Wednesday night as UAB defeating the Mustangs 47-28.

It's the lowest scoring output ever in a Conference USA game.

SMU couldn't hit the broad side of a barn against UAB converting on 8 of 46 shots and shooting 17 percent. No Mustang scored in double figures, Robert Nyakundi led the Mustangs with nine points.

The Mustangs really lowered the bar in basketball futility. SMU scored 12 points in the first half, setting a school record. The Mustangs' 28 points is the lowest point total since 1956 when SMU scored 26 points against TCU, those were the days of the two handed set shots and no shot clock.

Here's SMU head coach Matt Doherty's explaination. (Thanks SMUMustangsAthletics)



And just how long will Doherty be employed by SMU.

Officially 1,582 witnessed what many believe is a new low point in SMU basketball at ancient Moody Coliseum.
