SMU 92, Vanderbilt 81: Another blown lead late

I’m going to go ahead and start with this disclaimer: I do not blame Jerry Stackhouse at all for the current state of the Vanderbilt basketball program, or for the loss last night. Now. Let’s talk about the current state of the Vanderbilt basketball program.

Last night against SMU, Vanderbilt held a 72-57 lead with 6:28 left in the game. At that time, Ken Pomeroy’s win probability said that Vanderbilt had a 98 percent chance of winning the game. A fluke, right? Not so fast.

  • Against Loyola-Chicago, Vanderbilt had a 65.1 percent chance of winning when it led 20-14 with 7:12 left in the first half.
