Wichita State at Clemson (NIT 2nd Round)

[Blackmag]

Actually we controlled the game but the last 6-7 minutes was just horrible. It shows our lack of ball handling

[ShockerFever]

I dont get all the "we didnt deserve to win." We were the better team, played better than them, and beat the refs as well. Well done Shox!

I'll agree with this but man, that was a couple of dumb teams out there today. We were less dumb, barely.

[Kung Wu]

There were definitely some hard to watch boneheaded moments out there.

[wichshock65]

This game was the absolute definition of survive and advance. Holy crap!

[top20shock]

Shox win! Ugly and nice.

[Blackmag]

But hey we won. 21-14, who would have thought

[wsushox1]

The good news is that, with no tourney games on Tuesday, the game in Assembly Hall should have significantly better referees than what was officiating today.

[shocks02]

Torres stock up, Burton stock down.

[Dan]

Burton is big and can be effective but he’s also slow and slow with decision making. Not a good combo when you’re being pressed.

[ShockRef]

Burton has looked steady and improving as the season went on - until today. He acted like he had never seen a press before.
Do not understand No Echenique the last 10 minutes - Tired? Hurt or did HCGM just forget about him?

Weird.

That is all.

[Bluzrover]

Hot damn! JE had a really good game but was surprised 3G kept him out those last few minutes. Not going to complain. Can't get enough of the grittiness of this young team. We're going to Indiana my fellow ShockerNetters. Gotta love it!

[rjl]

You guys might think this was ugly because you haven't seen it in a while: a good defensive game by WSU.

[pie n eye]

I think their defense has been pretty good for a while now.

[ShockingButTrue]

You shouldn't have kept it close. It's the freaking truth but there's softasses out here that want to defend him because he's a good local kid.

Our true point (Burton) played a hell of a lot worse.

[SHOCKvalue]

I dont get all the "we didnt deserve to win." We were the better team, played better than them, and beat the refs as well. Well done Shox!

We deserved to win because Clemson is AWFUL! Short all of those chances they had at the line, this was a meeting behind the woodshed.

Not as putrid of a crowd as I anticipated, but they were as engaged as Creighton fans, which is to say barely alive.

[ShockerFever]

Our true point (Burton) played a hell of a lot worse.

Yes our freshman PG played worse than our senior guard. Thanks to the ending.

[im4wsu]

Yep. It is actually. The good ones are doing Women's NCAA

Or maybe softball

[TheShocktocles]

Great win by the shockers. JE played a helluve game. Clearly we need to work on how to break the press. Go shocks let's beat Indiana.
