Was just watching NBCSN's "Sports Dash" show and they had Kenny Smith on to talk about the Knicks and preview the NCAA Tournament. When asked who he had winning it all he said he hadn't gotten much free time to sit down and fill out his bracket, but he thinks WSU is being underrated by many around the country. He said "Wichita has the best chance to win it because you don't win by your name, you win by how you play the game"

Remember when Nancy Pelosi said about Obamacare:
"We have to pass it, to find out what's in it".
A physician called into a radio show and said:
"That's the definition of a stool sample."

Originally posted by Shock Therapy View PostIt's such a backwards argument. You can argue that you aren't sure about them because they haven't proven themselves to you. But to say that they won't win because they haven't been tested, whatever that's supposed to mean, is a joke.
I hope Kentucky/Louisville/etc. aren't able to steal our signs in the first half.
i keep thinking back to Marshall's speech last year regarding the team that wants it more winning. I don't think we're going to have many games where we don't want it more.Originally posted by BleacherReportFred VanVleet on Shockers' 3-Pt Shooting Confidence -- ' Honestly, I just tell these guys to let their nuts hang.'

I hadn't seen this one posted yet. SI.com's survival bracket is up. You can read the article if you want to see the formula/methodology they use to determine this. The Shockers rank 4th in their model, having their 4th highest percentage of winning it all, but this bracket doesn't have them advancing past the Sweet 16, due to the matchup with Louisville.
Had the selection committee done a better job of balancing the bracket, Wichita State would likely have been in our Final Four. The 34-0 Shockers ranked fourth in the survival model due to their combination of efficiency, experience and consistency. In fact, they were the most consistent No. 1 seed in our entire study sample from 2004-2014, based on standard deviations from average efficiency margin during the regular season.

I thought this was hilarious. Includes a Wichita State mention.
Wichita State (n.) — living proof that you can literally be perfect and still not meet the rigorous standards set by the more courageous members of the sports media.Kansas is Flat. The Earth is Not!!

I know it't a best case/worst case scenario for each team, but I got the feeling Pat Forde thinks WSU will have an early exit..
