WSU VS. EVANSVILLE Predictions and Pregame Discussions

[lemuel777]

With all that I quoted, I still offer the following; those Aces fans are all more well informed than KCShox.

I second that.

[Trueshock]

Of course it doesn't Especially since were ranked the # 2 road team in thye nation LOL.

[Trueshock]

Shut up and go join the K.U. fans. That's where you belong.

[another shocker]

evansville is 3-1 in the valley. they're better than bradley and siu.

pick'em

[Trueshock]

Didn't you know he was joking. LoL. Lighten up dude,you're wound up too tight.

Trueshock are you talking to yourself? maybe learn how to use the reply with quotes button?

We lose 2 or 3 out of the next 3 @KC Shox:? This team is way too tough for that to happen. They can't wait to take those games. It will make them 18-1, 1st all by themself in the Valley and an all locked up dancing ticket. They know it and it will fuel them to success.

I expect us to play hard, but in recent games we have not played our best. At some point we will lose another game. I don't think KC's observations are too crazy, but I would be surprised if we lost more than one in a row. On the other hand, any of the next 3 teams are capable of beating us on a bad night.

We lose the next two out of three games (and if T. Brown is reinstated before our game, it will be a three game losing streak). The Shox have not put together a complete game in their last three and stating the obvious, not having CH is still a real killer for us. We lose 70 to 61 as we will not be able to defend the dribble penetration, get into foul trouble and put EU on the line way too much. By the way, as a team EU is shooting 88 percent from the line in league play and 75 percent overall.

Our non-con schedule is going to crap and being exposed. Other than VCU, we beat up on a bunch of crappy to average teams. Our overall SOS has dropped to 105. We're the only team in the top 20 of the RPI with a SOS of over 100.

Our SOS will go up after the next week.

When was the last time WSU lost 3 in a row? I bet even YOU can't remember.

[ShockerFever]

The half dozen or so Aces fan on their board are sure having a great time leading up to their SuperBowl!

I offer the following:

"This team can easily be beaten, Bradley and Southern Illinois proved that, and from what I saw, we dominated Southern Illinois. If we can hit our shots, there's no way we will lose. But we can't go stagnant like we did against Miss St. We have to pounce, and we'll need a great crowd! Go Aces. Pack the FC!"


This next guy is all over the board:

"Earlier this year I was a total disbeliever in WSU, knowing that it would take them a while this season to work all of the transfers and freshman into a cohesive lineup."

"I am always leary of early season impressive records." (I guess early season poor records are a sign of a strong team?)

" I still do not see the SHOX as a top 25 team. Time will tell; it always does." (I think this suggests that only legitimate Top25 teams can beat Evansville)

"My reply is that the Aces and most every other team in the MVC has been playing at less than 100% strength. Good teams find ways to win games." (I suspect finding a way to win 15 of 16 is not as good as finding a way to win 10 of 16)

Another fan writes:

"As good as Early is, and I mentioned him, in an earlier posted thread. I think he had the game of his college career, last night." (Probably wouldn't play at UE)

Some ticket information:

"Concerning ticket prices and attendance, if you attend the girls game first at 1p.m. they just cost you $5 dollars plus you get into the men's game if you go back to the ticket area (inside I believe) and receive another ticket (for no additional cost)." (Gotta love the Valley!)


Now this guy is completely messed up:

"You didn't see them play against Bradley. BU held them to 41 points and beat them by 25. The Shox can be beaten and I'm confident UE will do just that."

(He later retracts, when he admits he's wrong, it was WSU v UNI, and even though WSU won, he still witnessed play that convinces him UE wins this)

Those tools wouldn't know a basketball if it hit em in the face.

There's about 8 total EU fans that post on their message board, it represents about 1/3 of their fanbase. This is their season. They won't even fill up their arena 2/3 of the way, even with $5 tickets. That's the pathetic thing.

The guy is strange, to say the least.

[60Shock]

Another back and forth game with the Shocks prevailing in the last 5 minutes to win 67 - 62. CE scores 25, EO doubles with 12 points and 12 rebounds.

[Trueshock]

CE is the man

After the performance against SIU, 3G will have the Shox focused and we'll put foot on throat.

Shox - 81

Pimps - 62

Cotton shuts Ryan down. Cle goes for more than 20 again. Ehimen continues to be a beast on D.

We have only lost 1 game thus far. That game that we lost was the only game (Tennessee) that cleanthony Early fouled out of. I see a pattern here.

You should be a statistician.

I'm not the most eloquent poster but this guy is crazy! Has one of your post made sense? DOFO?
