Men’s basketball lost to Alcorn State 66-57 Saturday afternoon in Charles Koch Arena.
The Shockers were the second team this week upset by a team from the Southwestern Athletic Conference after Grambling State beat Colorado at home 83-74.
“We talked about [the upset] all week long,” head coach Isaac Brown said. “I knew Alcorn State was a good basketball team. Give them all the credit. They were tougher than us tonight. They played harder. I thought the [team] knew how good this team was.”
Besides a 14-0 run at the end of the first half, the team had a hard time finding consistency.
