  • WSU versus William and Mary predictions and pregame discussions.

    Here's the real deal. After burning our candles at both ends, it is soon time for another game for our Shocks who are far from satisfied. Guess what? After last night's game, I made my appearence waggin my tail at 7 bells this a.m. where I was supposed to be Wed. at the same time. Now they have to see me again tomorrow at 7-bells. Yikes!!! OOOOPS!!! It was like an embarrasing dream but it was was the real deal. Thus, FSF had a quick game-plan to safe face and just blamed y'all here on SN for keeping me up so ever-lovin late baybay. Not my fault, not my fault I exclaimed!!! Tsk, tsk, tsk. Can u dig it? Groovy!!!

    Recentlly, I called Baker and FVV our point guards dynamic-duo. However, now we must add Cotton for the trifecta because the 3 of them had 12 of our 16 total assist totals. When the 3 of them are on the court together, we have 6 eyes that see the play thrice in simultaneous fashion and will hit the open man the the rock. I was also impressed with Cle also making 3 assists in the wee-Early-hours of the Morn. Our beloved Shocks will rebound like rock stars in this game if they know what is good for them in the practices to follow. It appears that this team plays a Princeton style offense? I thought that was stated at around 2:30 a.m. after our game on the radio right before the sandman came knocking and then I drifted off sleeping well and not worried about our Shocks.

    I predict that neither Ron or Fred will play more than 30 minutes. Derail, Zach and John Robert will get minutes instead.

    Comfortable victory at a sensible time of day.

                  We roll these fools by 30 plus. W&M lost to Hampton? Only beat Liberty by 8? In our house, this game is where we get out by 14 in the first half and expand the margin in the second. If they hang within 20, I'm throwing my laptop out the freakin' window!

His teams were always fundamentally sound, team oriented, well conditioned, and ran both their offense and defense with great patience. I know of no coach whose teams competed against his, whether it be at Wichita State, Iowa, or Oregon State, who did not have great respect for him."—John Wooden

                      We will win, but I expect the margin to be under 20. It will take most of the first half to adjust to the Princeton offense, and I also expect HCGM to tinker with the lineups and play as many people as possible, including JR-S at the point and DG getting some time too.

                        This, plus we struggled with Air Force last season.

                          My thought exactly. This one will probably be closer than what we'd expect:

                          Tribe -- 75

                          Shock -- 85

                            Good point.

                            I'll revise my scores to:

                            Shox 79
                            Tribe 49

                            Edit: Bah I can't give Tribe 51. If WKU couldn't put 50 on us, how can Tribe? Maybe if we go to our deep bench early, that can happen (e.g. Emporia).

                              So if we all think we're gonna trounce this team, why was it chosen as one of those "must-watch games?" I'm not saying you all are wrong, I'm still confused why this one is a must-watch...
