The SMU Mustangs galloped into town for a Wednesday night tilt against the Notre Dame Fighting Irish, who were looking to respond to getting outplayed by the Louisville Cardinals on Sunday. The story of the week has been Micah Shrewsberry’s angry (and seemingly unprompted) rant at his postgame press conference. It seemed if there was any upside to that fit of passion, it would be to fire up a group of players that has taken its lumps over the last few months. That, Matt Allocco’s return to the lineup, and SMU missing its star, Boopie Miller, had the potential to give the Irish some semblance of an emotional lift tonight.
