| Transcript | A Akeem controlled the game, But spent too much time on the bench T Then Beat Hogs for 2nd Straight SWC Tourney Title On Sunday, March 12, the Cougars slipped by the Hogs 57-56 to claim the SWC Post-Season Classic Championship, automatically qualifying them for the NCAA tournament. The fifth-ranked Coogs hung on without the benefit of having Akeem Olajuwon's services for the last seven minutes, 23 seconds of the contest. The big guy had fouled out. The Hogs missed three potentially game winning shots in the final seconds and, before Leroy Sutton finally dropped in what Arkansas fans insisted was the winning bucket, time had expired. With Olajuwon in the game and the Cougars playing the 20-year-old 1-3-1 zone that Lewis revived in the Rice contest with favorable results, Houston built a 41-26 lead. When Akeem fouled out, Arkansas took control, outscor- ing and outrebounding Houston 17-12 and 10-2, respectively. The Hogs, who shot a meager 34 percent from the floor, were also victimized by Michael Young's game-high 23 point output, as the Coogs claimed their second straight SWC Post-Season Classic Championship and their fourth over the last six seasons. — Brian Allen Sports —111 |
