I am still up and running on fumes from the Missouri State game.

It's only a matter of time until 'Cuse drops and we can share the unbeaten tag with Zona. I could Zona being undefeated well into February though, only 2 road games and those are still 70%+ projected wins. It doesn't get tough for them until Valentine's Day.

Agreed. It helps that Zona is rock solid. They're just good. That goes against most of what I believe, because I tend to believe that West Coast basketball is not as good as MW/East Cost, but they are that good. My bias against WCB is not because I don't stay up late to see West Coast teams play - because I do - I just think that in general the Pac-12 has been down for quite a while. MWC been better recently.

Got on a tangent there. Oh well.

In regards to Wichita State's bench, GreggMarshall says he wants to "add horses to be able to help get us across the field."

I love watching the talking heads discuss our beloved Shocks in positive terms.

Early and Baker among the top 60.

But yet, according to him, they still only play on the 13th best team in the nation.

I'm not losing sleep. I'm just pointing out a hypocritical tidbit.

I thouroughly dislike Gary Parrish, but I don't understand the comment about him being a hypocrite. I hear all the time about how the best talent doesn't equal the best team. (Kentucky Freshman, Kansas Freshman, etc.) Hate on Gary all you want (I will join you in much of it) but don't call people hypocrites for expressing their opinions.

One could even call your selective use of the "best talent = best team" argument as hypocritical. At the very least, you are being inconsistent.

Defending the opinions of someone you thoroughly dislike because of their opinions. Sounds like a hypocrite!

Also, clearly ShockFev was not "hating." That was a huge exaggeration.

Today on Sports Daily they were talking about the pressure and expectations of continuing an undefeated run. If we get to 25, even 30-0, do you think this team will be adept at handling that kind of pressure? Both from a media standpoint and from the standpoint of just never having lost. In the past, I have definitely felt it took the pressure off of a team to get that first loss, but maybe this team is mentally tough enough to handle it.

I'm excited to find out what that pressure does to our team!

BTW, I'm still predicting a couple of losses pre-St. Louis, but if anyone can handle this pressure it is our starting back-court. So solid!

Amen.
