We have only ourselves to blame. Drake wanted it more I think and played much smarter ball than we did. Tough loss.

True. We always lose at least one game per season against a team we should run off the court.Originally posted by ShockerPrez View Post

Bad shooting, a lot of bad decisions, awful officiating, and we still barely lose in triple overtime. We're going to demolish Drake when they come here.
and storming the court??? wow.Comment

So here's the theme for this year: when the Shocks have a chance to put away the game in regulation (deja vu Temple?) and don't do it, bad things happen in OT. Not a good time to have (at that point) only their second missed FT of the night, to say nothing of the collection of miscues that followed before overtime ever began.
Oh, and one other theme all too familiar: the missed opportunity. The Shocks came in with an RPI over .615, which had them ranked 25th (meaning that their win over Evansville compensated for the effect of playing SIU). A win on the road over an above .500 team probably would have lifted them over .62, which would have put them in the top 20. Instead, the loss knocks them down to around .608 and 30th They really, really need to step up at MSU now and give themselves a chance at a sweep over the Ozark Mountain Daredevils, because that and the game at Omaha to salvage a split are (at least for now) their only chances to make grab the upper hand against Creighton.Last edited by WSUwatcher; January 29, 2012, 12:30 AM.Comment

Of course no post-game. Gotta get to Oregon - Oregon State."Don't measure yourself by what you have accomplished, but by what you should accomplish with your ability."

I know our team played hard and played their guts out to last through 3 OTs, but looking back, we had chances in the first half, second half, and OTs to put some space between us and Drake and we didn't play as smart as we should have. Tough loss, and they never gave up, but these guys need to watch the tapes and see what they do to improve some of their decision making. Losing in 3OTs on the road to a good Drake team is nothing to be ashamed of, but we put ourselves behind the 8 ball going into Springfield. Creighton has a much easier go the rest of the way. We can't afford any more losses if we want to keep pace with CU. Rest of up Shox. Take down the bears...Kansas is Flat. The Earth is Not!!

I cannot think of a single possession where we got it in the paint. Maybe once where Hall got called for a foul, but no shot.Originally posted by ShockerPrez View PostKung Wu say, man who read woman like book, prefer braille!Comment
