WSU VS. DETROIT Predictions and Pregame Discussions

[ShockerPrez]

Have no clue. We still have BB demons to contend with.

These games always worry me, because our crowds seem to amp up the other team and they play outta their mind.

I actually hope HC3GM doesn't spend too much time on Detroit game tape. I hope we try and force Detroit to play our game and he spends this "down" time focusing on Eville. Losing to Eville would be magnitudes worse than losing to Detroit.

They have a kid from Lagos, Nigeria (go get him EO). Minnerath is 6'9", pretty quick and scores inside or outside. Add in their guard play and this will be a very interesting game. The Homer in me says

Shox 79
Chrysler 300 (Minus M&M) -- 77

I know little about Detroit but we will score over 65 so we win. 70-63 Shockers.

WSU 77
THE GHOSTS OF DICK VITALE 72

With all the snow predicted for the Wichita area, do you think there is a chance that the game could be cancelled because Detroit can't fly into ICT?

Ye of little faith :glee:

I've been paying more attention to Detroit since they were announced as our opponent. They can score in bunches. We better bring it defensively.

They will definitely be tough, but I think our team has turned that "corner" with the two-game road sweep. Add the fact that it's at home and I like our chances in a pretty contested game. We pull away late to win by 8.

Strength vs strength. Detroit's offense vs the Shocks Defense and Rebounding. Contrasts usually make for interesting games

Shocks my enjoy a step outside of the ground and pound of the Valley.

Shocks haven't done great in BB games, although we played very well a Davidson last year. Time to say farewell to BracketBusters with our best game in the series.

Since the BB announcement, I've watched their games against Cleveland St. and the comeback win against Valparaiso. I think the Shox will win 77-70. It'll be a fun game to watch and a big lead means nothing against Detroit.

[shockmonster]

I think that if we win the next two games (Detroit and Evansville), we're probably in as an at-large to the NCAA. Detroit is a big game.

[SubGod22]

Shox - 78

Titans - 65

[another shocker]

antoine carr and xavier mcdaniel- 68
john long and terry tyler- 64

The real question is whether the Detroit players will escape after the game by running into the stands like in the movie Victory?

I take it that this game isn't part of the season tickets right? I better get online and buy mine. Non season ticket holder games always ROCK
Of course I'm at every game anyway so what difference does it make. I'm looking forward to the crowd a little though.
