  • Wichita State at Cincinnati Pregame Discussion 2-17-22


    CINCI (16-8, 6-5 AAC) vs WICHITA STATE (13-9 4-6 AAC)
    THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 17, 2022 | 6:00 PM CT
    CINCINNATI, OHIO | FIFTH THIRD ARENA
    TV: ESPN2
    RADIO: KEYN 103.7 FM https://www.radio.com/keyn/listen
    SERIES: Cinci leads 13-26 (4-13 in Cincinnati)
    LAST MEETING: January 16, 2022 in Wichita (Cinci, 61-57)
    GAME RECAP:

    One of these days Wichita State will catch a break in a close game against Cincinnati.

    Sunday wasn't that day.

    The visiting Bearcats scored the last five points to leave Charles Koch Arena with 61-57 victory.

    David DeJulius scored 18 points, including the go-ahead basket with 2:18 to play for Cincinnati (13-5, 3-2 American).

    The Bearcats have won eight of the 10 AAC era meetings between the teams. Six of those UC wins have come down to the final possession.

    Tyson Etienne had 14 points and six assists to lead the Shockers (9-7, 0-4) who were playing without starting point guard Craig Porter Jr. (health & safety protocol).

    Morris Udeze put up 12 points and 11 rebounds and Ricky Council IV added 11 points.

    WSU dropped a third-straight game at home for the first time since the 2007-08 season and dipped to 0-4 in league play for the first time since an 0-6 MVC start in 2008-09.

    The Shockers surrendered just 12 points in the paint and out-rebounded the visitors 39-32.

    The Bearcats converted just 6-of-21 attempts from inside the lane but atoned by knocking down jump shot after jump shot -- 6-of-10 from mid-range and 10-of-26 from three.

    Cincinnati's 10 triples were the most by a Shocker opponent all season. WSU had limited foes to conference-best 28.7 percent coming in.

    DeJulius (3-for-4), Hayden Koval (3-for-5) and John Newman II (2-for-3) did much of the damage for the Bearcats.

      We've beaten them twice in the last ten tries. Unless we play smart and shoot out of our minds, we're not winning this.

        Two teams that you really don't know what to expect from them game to game. We obviously know our head scratching losses. Cincy Also lost to Tulane ... and are coming off a loss to Tulsa. They have to play Memphis today then us on Thursday. It's probably going to be two bad looking teams playing each other and will come down to who plays least bad lol.

              The Shocks will lose. This team just not mentally tough enough to win on the road. This is what's going to happen.

              David DeJulius will destroy who ever is guarding him.
              Davenport will have a career night scoring.
              Larkin will shoot wide open 3 pointers at will.
              Morris U will be a no show as usual.
              DD clangggggggg. More missed wide open 3 pointers sprinkled with miss layups and dunks. Yeap wide open dunks.
              TE is no Nigel Pack . More turnovers and extra errors..
              RC4 plays a terrible game as usuall. His pattern is good game, bad game, good game, terrible game. He is consistently in consistent. His partner Monzy will be missing in action. No where to be found. Floating in La LA land.
              Q Grant will fumble several balls out of bounds.
              KP clangggggggg more missed wide open 3 pointers and layups. Fifi is too soft to compete.
              RC4 man just scored 5 layups. Ricky no where to be found on defense.
              Another MU foul and turnover.
              Shocks go on a 9 minute stretch without scoring.
              ​​​​​​​Craig Porter is no Markuis Nowell. Markuis tore Craig up in their game. And Cincinnati guards are better. It's going to be tough to watch. Shocker fans close your eyes.

              ​​​​​​​Cinci wins going away.

                Porter didn't play last time and we lost by 5. Our guys have had their mistakes drilled into their heads, but they continue to alternate good games and bad games. They are not road warriors but I believe we are better than we were the last time we faced off. I will say we lose by 4.

                  Here's the deal. I hereby declare reverse osmosis on scoreboard process. Same score as b4 except the Shocks win. That's all I got.

                  WSU 61

                  Cincinnati. 57
                  Shocker basketball will forever be my favorite team in all of sports.

                        FWIW, Cincy lost at home to Memphis on Tuesday 81-74 after trailing by 15 at half (41-26).

                          Naw.
                          Shox know the tough stretch they got coming up. They are not really believing they can 3-0 on Cincy, Houston, Mempiss...
                          So they play loose at Cincy. 3's fall, low turnovers, crash the O glass (Monzi has a good game) and we turn a 7 point halftime lead into 20 in the 2nd half. Cincy cuts it to 10 twice, but the 3's are timely, and we finish with a 14 pt. win. Watch for the homerun pass windmill dunk ftom Ricky with around 1 minute to go as Cincy tries a desperate press.
                          Then, they start believing, and tightening up...gulp

                            I like the Shocks chances in a close game, IF, our primary ball-handler makes right decision/s, doesn't throw mind numbingly stupid passes, and hits free throws. Just like last year.

                            Shox 62

                            Bearcats 59
