***OFFICIAL*** WSU vs DAVIDSON GAME THREAD

[C0|dB|00ded]

Forget the mid-major label -- there are few teams in the country, regardless of conference, playing as well as this team right now. How many? Five? Maybe six? If that?

MSU Bears fan here. Congratulations on the win. Focused, hard-working, well coached...your team is fun to watch. Carry on!

Tell me if you and I were sitting behind the scorers table (I know you being seen with me in public is a stretch) giving it to officials, would they run us??? Probably not. BS, but funny.

Before the remodel and we had seats on the floor with nothing between me and the floor except a couple of shapely cheerleaders, I was in Danny Moore's ear, with my feet on the black, screaming at him, received a forearm shiver from an official, shouted an obscenity in response, and STILL didn't get run.

Whatever Googs did, he didn't deserve the heave ho.

Some Shocker & MVC love...Baaaaaaabyyyyyyy.

yeah ....I think that list is kinda off the hip how bout Oscar Robertson, Dave Stallworth, Hersey Hawkins, Larry Bird and heck pick a fifth out of about 25 other players

[wusphlash]

We're getting so much love. I feel like a traveling salesman at a hookers convention.

When Oscar played, Cincy was no mid-major.

well that would apply to Bird as well then....the Mo Valley wasnt considered a mid major conference so thats a mild argument at best...Cincy was the Gonzaga of that era....

[pinstripers]

Cincy went to 4 consecutive final 4's, and won back-to-back titles. They were the best program in the nation.

[ShockerFever]

Great win for the team. They just continue to decimate good teams on the ROAD.

Getting ready to watch the game on the DVR since I missed it, after the sCUm game is over.

More to follow...

GO SHOCKS!

let me guess The big O's four years.....but I understand your point

The Big O

The Big O didn't play 4 years. Players were not allowed to play in their freshman year then. Cinci gained so much attention in those days that they had a great recruiting class following the Big O years. Their center then was Paul Hogue. WSU beat Cinci several times then when they were ranked very highly. The most famous win may have been the time Dave Stallworth scored 6-7 pts in the last 30-60 sec's to bring WSU back from a 5-6 pt deficit.

Lanny Van Eman told me about that game once when I still lived in Phoenix, AZ. He said Ralph Miller called timeout with about a minute left and after the team gather at the bench, Ralph said something like this: "OK guys, we've got them where we want them". Stallworth then took over the game & singlehandly won it for WSU.

No. They made the tournament in the Big O's last two years but did not win a championship. They did win consecutive championships the 2 years following the Big O's final year at Cincy.

For what it is worth, according to DK's twitter, he is as sick as a dog. Played valiantly if he played through that today.

Hopefully it was just something he ate and will be ready at ISU red.
