[ShockerPrez]

Have to laugh.

[Dave Stalwart]

Definitely didnt expect a start like that. We'll take care of it though

[1979Shocker]

Is this our Evansville game?

[tw805]

The whole 'we can't shoot' thing seems to be a problem.

[1979Shocker]

We trail 13-9 at the under 12 timeout.

Baker with 6 points (two 3's) and FVV with 3 points.

Our interior defense is awful

[Mr. Obvious]

TV. Observation. Is all our student body obese? Our inside game sucks again.

[Dan]

both those calls on Wessel were terrible

[kcshocker11]

That call was a joke

[shoxlax]

WTF?

[MadaboutWu]

Was that Stephenson on the kiss cam?

I am forced to follow this game on ESPN score center. If I had to drink every time it said, 'William and Mary makes layup,' I would be in the hospital.

This is good for us. These types of games WILL happen in the Valley: Games we should win comfortably but get an opponent that doesn't know that and comes out strong. The key is staying comfortable and focused, not rushing or getting panicked. Get through the other teams' hot opening hand, address your shortcomings, and try to play smart basketball.

Hopefully we show our mental toughness and basketball IQ and play through this. Don't focus on how good or bad your opponent is supposed to be, focus on ourselves and what we need to do.
