The offensive numbers look to favor Houston, except for shooting percentages and turnovers; the defensive stats are overwhelmingly in WSU's favor -- Houston has 11 defensive rankings of 300+.

We should respect them and they might even get lucky, but we should absolutely win this game.Its a good landing if you can walk away, its a great landing if the plane can be reused the next day.

Super weird, random, and likely meaningless stat of the day:
Zach Brown is a career 32.3% 3PT shooter. Pretty poor, not yikes! bad.
In low-level games, he is 40/141 = 28.4% (yikes! bad)
In Tier B games, he is 17/48 = 35.4% (I'll take this from a defensive stopper)
In Tier A games, he is 23/59 = 38.9% (All day)
WSU has 7 Tier A and 2 Tier B games left on the regular season schedule. I may be left holding the bag in 2 months, but I'm going to buy again; what I'm assuming is all the remaining Zach Brown stock.

Maybe he should try the glove routine used by Keitha Adams. Don't know if it would help but can it hurt?

I don't blame anyone that wants him to stop shooting. I often cringe, though usually more due to the selection of shot rather than the fact he is shooting at all. I do agree he needs to find his lane again. Colour me unreasonably optimistic.

I just hope he feels it from his fingertips to his toes when lets it go. Not sure if Zach can find it or not on a consistent basis but it would be extremely beneficial if either he or Markis can find the touch soon. Ideally, both of them but I will take either one.

The trend on his 3 pt shooting % is downward since his first year so I tend to cringe as well when he launches one, but mainly because there are usually at least two better options on the court at the same time whether LS, AR or CF. Heck, it's a toss up when I cringe more, when Zach launches a three or Darral. But I wonder how much his knee is still impacting his game.

Originally posted by Shox The Revenant View PostThey whooped Arkansas by 26. Houston is very capable of whooping our butt too, but just not at our place. We will win by a margin anywhere from 3 to 19 points, it's so difficult to make predictions on this year's team.
Thus, I'm hoping the Shocks grab the Cougars by the tail and ears and keep their 3-point shooting to a mild roar and come prepared to execute their junk. Otherwise, our foes will get 50 in the first half? Better not!!!!!!! We must continue to win in our barn to go where we strive to go and achieve our goals.
Shocker basketball will forever be my favorite team in all of sports.

Houston Junior forward Breaon Brady posted a career-high and game-high 21 points while pulling down nine rebounds in only 18 minutes of action in the win over Temple, exiting the game in the second half with an ankle injury. Brady was 8-of-9 from the field and 5-of-6 from the line.
The latest report I have seen says he is a game time decision for Thursday.
