Stanford up by 7 at the half, and it's honestly a bit of a disappointment as the Cardinal had a 12-point lead late in the first half.

SMU looks out of sorts offensively but Stanford has done a great job of getting turnovers. It still feels to me like Stanford is going to need 70 points at a minimum to win, as SMU's best player, Boopie Miller, is capable of pullng an Okorie and putting the team on his back.

Agarwal made a three (!) but followed it up with what I thought was an ill advised launch of a three very early in the shot clock. He's a capable passer and decent rebounder who can handle the ball OK. He just doesn't need to force shots when he's clearly shooting a low percentage. Frustrating as a fan.
