SMU runs up 32-point lead in win over Stanford

-

DALLAS — SMU coach Tim Jankovich watched the Mustangs run out to a 32point lead in the first half against Stanford and couldn’t help but take stock of his team in his first year replacing Hall of Famer Larry Brown.

Sterling Brown scored 16 points and SMU rolled to a 72-49 win over the Cardinal on Monday night for a 22nd consecutiv­e non-conference home victory. More notably from Jankovich’s perspectiv­e, it was the fifth straight win — and most impressive — since dropping a pair on the road at Southern California and Boise State.

Duke transfer Semi Ojeleye had 13 points and seven rebounds for the Mustangs (9-3), who shot 59 percent to 21 percent in the first half for the Cardinal while taking leads of 12-0, 30-7 and 44-12.

• No. 5 Duke 65, Tennessee State 55 — At Durham, N.C.: Luke Kennard scored 24 points and No. 5 Duke beat Tennessee State 65-55 on Monday night.

Freshman forward Jayson Tatum added 14 points and Grayson Allen finished with 12 for the Blue Devils (11-1), who plodded through 30 mostly sluggish minutes before pulling away from a pesky Tigers team that threatened to spoil the college debut of touted Duke freshman Harry Giles.

• No. 15 Purdue 82, Western Illinois 50 — At West Lafayette, Ind.: Caleb Swanigan had 21 points and 21 rebounds, Isaac Haas scored 18 and Purdue beat Western Illinois.

Swanigan went 7 for 16 from the field and 6 for 7 at the free throw line in his ninth double-double of the season. He had 26 points and 10 rebounds in Saturday’s 8681 victory against No. 25 Notre Dame in the Crossroads Classic.

• No. 16 Indiana 103, Delaware St. 56 — At Bloomingto­N, Ind.: OG Anunoby had 19 points and nine rebounds, and three of his teammates also reached double figures as Indiana routed Delaware State.

• No. 21 Florida St. 76, Samford 68 — At Tallahasse­e, Fla.: Terrence Mann scored 19 points and Xavier Rathan-Mayes added 15 to lead Florida State past Samford.

The Seminoles (12-1) have won eight straight and are 12-1 for only the third time — matching the 1988-89 and 2008-09 squads.

• No. 23 USC 79, Cornell 67 — At Los Angeles: Chimezie Metu scored 17 points and Jordan McLaughlin had 16 points and nine assists to help Southern California stay unbeaten with a victory over Cornell.

• No. 25 Notre Dame 77, Colgate 62 — At South Bend, Ind.: V.J. Beachem scored 20 points to help Notre Dame snap a twogame skid with a win over Colgate.
