Wichita State at Houston Pregame Discussion 1-8-22

[Kung Wu]

Here's the deal. "Houston, don't give us problems!!! Somebody has to pay for the thrashing our Shocks just took. The Shocks will gouge out the eyes of the Cougars offensive schemes and declaw their D-fence. Kenny P. will hit a 3 at the buzzer to Shock the basketball world with a 1 point surpass. Don't bet the farm on this one. Let's hope the Shocks have the eye of the Tiger mentality or this could get ugly even though Houston lost 2 starters.

Houston 58

Shocks 59

[SubGod22]

I don’t have faith that we crack 50.

I'm trying to be a little optimistic

[AZ Shocker]

Just comes down to if we can make shots. Our D is good enough but we don't make shots.

Where’s ShockerExpress or pie at to tell everybody how wrong we are?

According to this article - https://www.kansas.com/sports/colleg...257006637.html - the players said the main problem in their loss to Memphis was their defense wasn't good. Seems like they've accepted the fact the offense isn't that good and they need to play good defense and make some shots to win games. So if the defense isn't good, it'll probably be a 20+ loss.

warrennolan expects a 74-56 loss.. which is about what i was thinking before looking it up. should the o/u open at 130, i take the under. and if the shox are dogs by 18 or more, i take the shox to cover and look to add to this position in-game or reverse direction to break even if the shox show up

Hard to believe it has been that long!

[WeWillShockU2]

I think it will be single digit win. I hope it is us that wins.

KSN with a clip of IB, "We've got to make open shots."

[asiseeit]

To have a chance we must stay within five on the boards, have more assists than
turnovers, shoot 50% as a team and 40% from deep, hold them to 40% shooting

In other news, water is wet.

So no chance

[WstateU]

So no chance

Lloyd Christmas says there’s a chance… yea!!

[Shocktheheck]

I'd be happy just to see improvement at this point....

[Houstonfan33]

We will win y’all don’t have the discipline at the guard spot or depth down low to win even with losing two of our starters
