    They are much improved and deserve credit for that.

    However...

    ...this is our year to win St. Louis. Everyone else can suck eggs at that point.

        I hope ISUR is a play-in team and loses their first game. They were dirt bags last year in STL and they are still dirtbags. Their fans are even worse with them throwing stuff at WSU players and coaches.

          No. I'm being totally serious. I enjoyed that game and thought the Redbirds played out of their minds in their attempt to beat us.
          They continue that way....then give them an at-large. Seriously....they ALMOST beat the number one team in the MVC Wichita St.!!! ;)

            I had people throwing popcorn on me last year in Omaha when we were embarrassing the blue jays up there.

              Lame fans suck. If I were sitting next to you in my SHOCKER shirt I would've thrown popcorn back with a very content ear to ear smile!!! :)

                The NIT tourney? I don't see more than 2 getting into the dance at this point. Especially the way CU has sucked it up. It could happen to get 3 if someone wins Arch Madness that shouldn't. However this is WSU's year to win it, so the MVC is just screwed and will have 2.

                  I hope this loss sends Ill St into a losing streak that continues into a one and done in St Louis.

                  Eff 'em.

                      I actually hope ISUR wins out in the regular season and wins until we meet them in St. Louis. We may need more top 100 wins.

                        I hope ISUr is on the other side of the bracket from us. I think they would be a very dangerous team to face in the semis. If they come out on the wrong end of their three-way tie and finish 7th, whoever is the second seed will have a tough Friday game.

                          Assume we get the 1 seed, can ISUr still grab the 3 seed?

                            Anything is still possible in this helter skelter season the MVC is having. I believe coin flips are involved in ties.

                              in head to head ties, and if they split the season series, then they go to non-conference SOS
