The SMU Mustangs (6-4) play at Georgetown (7-2) on Saturday. This is the first matchup in a home-and-home that sees the Hoyas visit Moody Coliseum next season.

DAVID B. MILLER COURT: On Dec. 5, SMU named the Moody Coliseum court after David B. Miller, alumnus and vice-chair of the Board of Trustees. A two-time SMU graduate, Miller earned his bachelor's and master's degrees in business administration from Edwin L. Cox School of Business. As an undergraduate, he was a three-year starter and letterman on the varsity basketball team and a member of the 1971-72 Southwest Conference Co-Championship team. Since 2011, Mr. Miller and his wife, Carolyn Lacy Miller, have given $20 million toward the expansion and renovation of Moody Coliseum as well as the construction of the Miller Event Center.

LAST GAME (L, 67-59 vs [rv/--] TCU on Dec. 5): DALLAS (AP) -- Jaylen Fisher scored 12 of his 15 points after halftime as TCU rallied for a 67-59 win at SMU on Wednesday night, ending the Mustangs' four-game winning streak. Fisher's third 3-pointer of the second half made it 49-47 with 10 1/2 minutes left, putting the Horned Frogs (6-1) ahead to stay. He hit from the right corner on a pass from Kouat Noi, who then hit a 3 of his own on the next TCU possession. Fisher scored all of his points with five 3-pointers overall. JD Miller also had 15 points for TCU, while Noi finished with 12. Jahmal McMurray had 19 points for SMU (6-4), while Isiaha Mike had 14. Feron Hunt added 11 points and eight rebounds. SMU missed its first eight field goal attempts after halftime, but still had a 41-37 lead when Hunt drove for a layup to make it 41-37 with 13:27 left. TCU's only two made baskets in the half until that point were a pair of 3s by Fisher. Soon after that TCU was in the lead for the first time since early in the game. Desmond Bane hit a 3-pointer from the left corner in front of the Frogs bench, then rebounded a missed Mustangs shot that led to his fast-break layup for a 42-41 lead. The Mustangs had 10-point leads three different times in the first half. After their latest double-digit lead, TCU scored six in a row to cut it to 33-29 just before halftime when Alex Robinson had a layup, made a free throw and Fisher hit his first 3 of the game. There was a moment of silence before the game for the late President George H.W. Bush. The 41st president's son, George W. Bush, attends several SMU basketball games each season. The younger Bush's presidential library is across the street from Moody Coliseum on the edge of the SMU campus.
