BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) -- Bamba Fall scored 16 points and Brian Epps added 14 to lead SMU to a 60-56 victory over UAB Wednesday night.
Ike Ofoegbu scored 10 points and hit a 3-pointer to spark a 16-2 second half run that proved decisive for SMU. The Mustangs (13-8, 2-5 CUSA) trailed 27-26 at halftime.
Wen Mukubu scored 14 points to lead UAB (11-10, 3-4).
Lawrence Kinnard added 12 points and
Mike Davis Jr. had 10 for the Blazers. UAB lost its second game in a row at home.
A 3-pointer by Mukubu gave UAB a 45-41 lead with just over 11 minutes left in the game. But a basket inside by
Donatas Rackauskas and a 3-pointer by Epps started the run that put SMU ahead for good.
Epps' driving basket gave SMU a 57-47 lead with five minutes left.
UAB had chances down the stretch, pulling to within 59-56 on a reverse layup by Davis Jr. with less than a minute to play. But UAB struggled all night to get good shots against SMU's zone defense and could not make another basket.
