Memphis at Wichita State Pregame Discussion 1-1-22

This fan base hasn't gotten behind this team and their are reasons for that.

The price of tickets is also pretty high for a team that hasn't been giving forth the performance to justify those prices. Hard to ask people to give up their time and money for basketball that fails to meet certain standards.

I'd love to see sellouts the norm again. I'd also love to see good basketball being played with maximum effort. Right now, I'm not sure we're going to see either.

If the big three from Memphis play

Tiggers - 83
Shockers - 70

if some but not all play

Tiggers - 74
Shockers - 70

if none of them play

Tiggers - 65
Shockers - 70

Unfortunately there are way more factors driving attendance down than up right now ... Less than optimal play, bad opponents in Koch so far, high prices, the marshall situation.... Oh and that global pandemic thing.

Tomorrow is a Memphis team that we have struggled to be competitive with... That is also only 6-5 and there is a snow/ice storm predicted ... Not to mention the early morning game after new years. With the game being OTA CBS ... I'm not expecting many more tickets sold.

We probably had about 7k when we played UAB many years ago with 12” on the ground. Parking lot was a huge mess.

This forecast isn’t close to 12”. Pin should just stop talking (with his drive from Great Bend), and stay home. This Wichita forecast is for 2”.p, and a little ice.

I don’t buy all that doom and gloom about this team. Between rampant Covid everywhere and crappy weather forecasted, those would be the real reasons for a non-sell out.

[SubGod22]

With perfect weather I don't think this game would be a sellout.

Mostly because this team has done little to inspire the masses.

Unblock me and youd know.

Here's the deal. Kenny P. hits a 3 at the buzzer for the narrow 1 point win. This will be a defensive struggle.

Shockers 59

Memphis 58

I thought I may be a buyer but at $40 a ticket for the cheapest seat, I'll be watching from home.

Ouch!

We joined the American so we could have games, home games, like tomorrow.

11AM for national, over the air, broadcast.

These days, it's honestly tough for me to walk from A to B when they're anything more than 100 feet apart. I can't imagine what it's going to be like tomorrow with the ice.

But unless EMS has to haul my ass off after a fall, I'll be there tomorrow.


Let's go Shocks!

Wife still not able to attend. Gave our tickets away again

[WeWillShockU2]

I drove down yesterday from Topeka. Nothing will keep me from going to the game. I’ve had season tickets for many years and have missed very few games. Go Shocks!
