We didn't schedule Pitt, Gone-Zaga or La Salle. It was mandated by the same organization that penalized us dearly in the '80's. Sorry basketball nation, we play who we are told to play...and we play ANGRY...

It doesn't matter. The fact that it's Wichita State in the Elite 8 is the reason that this is happening. If a Big East or Big 12 team had done what we've done, they would have earned the Elite 8. To us, we had an easy path. The excuses can't continue if we beat OSU.
We've already had a great season but we're not satisfied.

Originally posted by Kung Wu View PostOK, but they were arguing that they should be a #2 seed. If you take that into account, there is no difference at all in what @The Mad Hatter posted, except that Michigan State and Marquette would be 7.3 and we'd be 7.6.
We could have beaten much higher seeds and worse teams with bigger names and gotten more credit for it. Just the way casual fans work.Originally posted by BleacherReportFred VanVleet on Shockers' 3-Pt Shooting Confidence -- ' Honestly, I just tell these guys to let their nuts hang.'

Originally posted by Downtown Shocker Brown View PostDon't know if this was mentioned before, but we continue to add to the history books:
Wichita State's win over LaSalle represented the first EVER matchup between a 9 seed and a 13 seed.
Our matchup against Ohio State will be the first ever #9 vs. #2 match up in tournament history.
