After McCollum's 3-pointer cut Georgia Tech's deficit to 18-7, Cross's basket started a 7-0 run, extending the Mustangs' lead to 18 with 13:05 left before halftime.

After Boopie Miller's layup gave SMU a 33-point advantage - its largest to that point - Ndongo's free throws capped the opening half's scoring and cut the Mustangs' lead to 50-19.

From there, Edwards began the second half with a layup, starting a 9-3 run to extend the Mustangs' lead to 59-22 with 16:45 left.

After Traore's third 3-pointer put SMU ahead 75-44 with 8:13 remaining, Georgia Tech answered with a 14-6 run, trimming its deficit to 81-58 on Terry's dunk at the 4:15 mark.

Edwards punctuated SMU's win after forcing Georgia Tech's 22nd turnover and taking it coast-to-coast for a dunk that put the Mustangs up 28 with 2:03 left.
