WSU @ Davidson- Bracketbuster Matchup

[Guest]

Very, very excited about this one because it is the one and only regular season game I will be able to attend this year.

Davidson has some nice tradition with three Elight Eights and a Sweet Sixteen to their credit. Should be a fun one in a packed house.

68 to 63 Da Shocks!

Davidson features 5 double digit scorers, all of whom are sophomores and juniors. Their leading scorer is 6'7" De'Mon Brooks at 16 ppg. Second leading scorer is 6'10" Jake Cohen at 13.4 ppg.

Cohen is 24-65 from three this season and shoots 88.6% at the line. Definitely an intriguing television matchup for Garrett.

We only have a win against Austin Peay in the bracketbusters. We have lost every other game. Time to change that. It will be very tough, but this team can do it!

Here's the deal. It seems some team not very well known beat Davidson this Season? Then they got the big KU win in KU country at the Sprint Center.
We win this game at their house, we will raise some eyebrows and demand even more pub. and respect, and rightly so. Our road warriors are on a high tide but this will be a very tough game to win that we will have to earn.

Andy Katz is still kind of bagging on us although now he really goes after Creighton. He says he debated whether Wichita State or Creighton had the most to lose from the BB games this weekend.

He finally decided that since WSU won the Valley regular season title, that we would probably be in the tournament even if we lost to Davidson. But he says Creighton could find themsevles on the wrong side of the bubble if they lose to Long Beach.

One good thing about facing Davidson - it let coach Marshall invite a bunch of family and friends see the team per the postgame last night.

I seriously have no idea what to think of this game. I don't know Davidson well enough. I know they are good enough, but that's about it. So here's some random numbers...

WSU - 68
Davidson - 60

If Andy Katz still thinks WSU is anywhere near the bubble, he needs to get his head examined. The Davidson game is about trying to get a protected seed, not trying to stay away from the bubble.

Davidson is very, very tough at home and if you can beat KU in Kansas City you have some guys who can play.

I have not predicted a score this year and I am not about to start now, but I am expecting that this will be a very, very tough game. To steal a phrase from @WuDrWu:, I will be happy with the ugliest of 1 point wins.
