          We didn't play them in the regular season last year. It was the year before.

                  im kinda shocked to see people still calling it mid majors beating on each other...if you want people to get beyond the mid major stigma, then it shouldnt matter who you play in the tourney...playing butler wouldnt be a mid major beating up on each other, it should just be Butler vs. Wichita State...two programs that got matched up in the first round and are playing to advance...it shouldnt matter who we play...you gotta play them eventually...just survive and move on.

                    Oftentimes it seems that mid-majors are paired against each other just so that only one can advance.

                      Sorry about that--brain cramp. I wasn't aware of the rule excluding regular season opponents.

                        Well, at least one of them is guaranteed to advance…

                          I was thinking along the same line as Kstarheel, they seem like they like to pair the non-bcs schools against each otheir so as not to have to many of them make it to the sweet-16. Last year the Shocks having to play VCU right out of the gate was a tough draw. Having said that, if we can get the first game then I like our chances to get to the sweet-16, we will be playing with house money, play loose, everyone on their game..... Good luck Shocks continue on an already great year!

                            bottomline is I think Wichita State enjoys being the underdog, especially in a 7 loss season. The middle seeds is the best thing for us...just like broccoli and spinach.
