Charles Choke Arena

[Shox4u]

Everytime our team is about to turn the corner they go and do this. Tired of hearing about depth and leadership. 3 home losses now!!!Shockers still have to play @ UNI, @ Mostate and Creighton at Choke Arena. Mostate remaining schedule is the 4 last place teams in the valley and WSU. Shox could end up being the #3 seed in the valley tournament, but at this rate they will be the #2 for sure. No doubt this league is only getting 1 team into the field of 64 this year. Good thing the tournament is not at Choke Arena. YEA NIT! Please shockers prove me wrong! :banghead: :mad:

Thansks for showing up to point out the obvious.

And you forgot about what may the their toughest remaining game at Evansville.

Expert analysis. You ma'am should be commended.

They need to stop cleaning the Shocker's toilets. That way they can be reminded their sh** does stink and they need to play every night.

Although it was not totally surprising to see UNI and MSU beat us at home, I wouldn't label it as a choke job. Not taking advantage of a great opportunity, but not a choke job. Now, SIU is a different story. When the team is down two starters and playing on the road, there is no excuse to lose so you are right there. Obvious? Most certainly, but SN is a great catharsis resource so I understand your post.

The team lacks agression. SIU did not.

Pick the best 8 players and go with them. No need to keep playing 10 unless you are going to pressure all night long... which the Shox don't do.

I really have become annoyed with some of the fan rituals, but it is what it is. STOP sitting down after the road team scores.... I hate that.

We offer no excuses for the totally unexpected loss last night. If we would have won this game, as 99.9% of the basketball world thought we would, that would have been the first time we swept the whole State of Illinois in the Conference. If, if, if.

We have never won this many Valley road games in a row. However, the toughest games on the road are forthcoming. Next, our Shocks have been very tough to beat here at 21st and Hillside in Valley games prior to this Season. We are still in 1st place in the Valley. I sure hope we sweep Creighton. How long has it been since we have done that? Lastly, we have never won out at the Lew. Thus, there are many roads to the Dance. However, our options are now narrowed down to to "Can do the Lew, or the NIT will have to do."

It's a good thing it's a 68 team field or you'd probably be right.
