SMU’s Short Bench Goes Long To Beat USF 84-65

DALLAS — The USF Bulls were undone by a barrage of SMU three-pointers in a 84-65 loss Saturday at Moody Coliseum in Dallas.

The Mustangs were 15 of 30 from behind the arc. It was one short of SMU’s school record, and also the most three-pointers a USF opponent has made in a game since those records started being tracked in 2002. Many of them were wide-open looks as USF could never find a defense that slowed the Mustangs down.

“We tried to play some man, we tried to play some zone, we tried full-court pressure, we tried a little bit of everything,” said USF interim coach Murry Bartow.
