Wichita State at Cincinnati Game Thread 2-17-22

[1972Shocker]

The Shocks should win quite a few games if they can score 76, but they won't win many if they give up 85.

The shooting stats pretty much tell the tale in this one.

Cincy 55% - 58% - 67%

WSU 45% - 28% - 65%

The Shocks did outrebound Cincy 37-30. Most of that on the possession where they took and missed 5 shots.

Shocks only had 10 turnovers. Cincy had 12.

It's not reasonable to believe we were gonna beat SinSinNasty at their place, but I still wanted to.

We just don't have that grit that kept us in nearly every game under HC3GM. Under his leadership there was always a chance in darn near any game, with darn near any personnel. We were just tough and gritty.

This squad works hard. It has a strong work ethic. I appreciate that, I really do.

But we're missing that grit.

We found a new way to lose tonight.

[Maizerunner08]

Yep, seems about right. 2 more Ls are coming.

[shock-it-to-me]

We are as good as any team in the league for about 25 minutes per game, but those other 15 we are the absolute worst.

[ShockerFever]

We did battle til the end though. I’ll await IB to confirm in the postgame.

We are missing the ability to hit easy shots... Wide open 3s, layups and fast breaks are our worst shots

[ShockerFever]

ShockerExpress is probably big mad y’all. He’ll be a no show.

Coach lacks the intensity and that rubs off on the team. I still don’t think there is a lot of accountability either.

Can’t wait until the sunshine pumperts (all travel paid included), MK has to say.

[NCAABound]

Typical Mike and Cindy apologizing for Cincy shooting so well from 3

MK: Be grateful there is a basketball program

I don't even bother.
