WSU vs Alabama Game Thread

[jocoshock]

Just search for "Wichita State".

I did. If you take away two teets; one from DG retweed several times and one from disgruntled KU fan, I still see 95% LOVE....

Our last 7 games: @Tulsa, vs DePaul, vs BYU, @St. Louis, ORU, Tennessee, @Alabama. Not the easiest stretch of games.

3 true road games, 2 neutral site games, 1 true home game and 1 quasi-home game. 7 wins. Nice.

Go Shocks.

Bama shot the ball tonight, maybe for the first time this year. Maybe not good defense? Baker not being able to play very many minutes definitely hurt us. We weren't as good with Cotton playing the point.

I thought Cotton did well. His job was to slow things down, not make mistakes, and get us to the half with the lead.

You can't take three starters out and say the lack of scoring is on Cotton at the point.

I see 75% game recaps and final score tweets. Of the remaining 25%, about 25% of it is hateraid.

See what you want to see. If people didn't care, they wouldn't tweet even that.

Too bad folks can't enjoy the season.

.783 (29-8) winning percentage in true road games since the 2010-11 season. That is very impressive! True Road Warriors. Many teams would love to have that kind of winning percentage at home.

[another shocker]

that was revenge for the 2011 loss to 'bama in the puerto rico classic, against a tide team that won 23 games last year- and personally speaking, i'm still not satisfied.

Cotton held the fort with the reserves until the Cavalry could come back.

I'm glad I read the last few posts in the thread because I was about to post that. I want 80% and I want it on January 22nd @ Illinois St.

@CBTonNBC: Wichita State continues to show toughness in 72-67 win over Alabama http://wp.me/p1aWjM-20Hi

"Tuesday night was another good test for Wichita State, and once again the Shockers showed their talent, toughness and composure. It’s really hard to believe the Shockers will run the table, especially in the Missouri Valley Conference, but when the bracket is released on Selection Sunday, I wouldn’t want to see the Shockers on my side of it."

I've never used this term before, but after reading Twitter, we sure do have a lot of haters.

Oh, and I love it. WSU basketball is so much more fun when the team is winning and in the spotlight.

Me too! I love how our guys can walk into someone's house and take a win! That's why people hate us, we're the villains, we're dressed in black!

Go Shox!

Ugh. Our highlights were finally shown on Sportscenter but the headline was "Unknown Unbeaten"...

I saw that in the queue and thought maybe it could be is and then thought, nah. So I turned off the tv. Awful headline!

That sucks! I LIVED on Shockerradio.com when I was deployed and could stream the games when not out on a job. I lived on Shockerradio for a good segment of the 2000's when my career took me out of the metro. It is a lifeline for Shockers around the globe.

I stream KNSS I my phone while I'm out of town - even while driving. Better than shockerradio.com.
