#4 Wichita State @ Drake Official Game Thread

[ABC]

Where were more than 2,700 folks at Loyola tonight.

We'll be ahead of Michigan State and Villanova.

Entirely possible that Florida jumps us, although it'd be hilarious, considering the two teams they beat this week we already had wins over. If they jump us, it's because they crushed Tennessee.

San Diego St ... no shot. Kansas ... possible. I think they're going to get a one seed, but I don't think they can jump San Diego State until they lose, because of the win they have over KU.

That's our best defense right now against Kansas. San Diego State won't be able to jump us, and Kansas won't be able to jump them. So worst case scenario Florida jumps us and we're #4.

But KU looks so AWESOME beating up TCU.

michigan st. knocked off at home by michigan...do you think we will move up or get leaped frogged again, if we do i will be alittle pissed

With Nova getting spanked and Michigan State losing, we should move up at least one spot. Will probably get jumped by Florida.

It's so good tcu

Who better, drake or our bench?

Good game other than guarding the 3. I guess you have to give them some credit for making shots. I would like our clean up guys to at least make a basket or two. All I ask for was 80. Is that too much to ask? Make a shot guys.

Our walk-ons aren't very good.

You guys are conceding that Florida jumps us too soon.


It will be close- they will close the gap on us, but it is a coin flip at best for them. Tennessee did us no favors by totally bending over on national tv against the Gators though.


We will be no worse than #4 Monday. We have a solid shot at being #3.

Beatdowns like this are necessary to get out of the poor old Valley. I was able to watch Creighton beat Georgtown tonight on TV. Hell I could watch Lehigh on ESPN PPV.

Postgame:

Bob Hull: Loyola scored 93 against UNI today in overtime.

Coach Marshall: I don't they're going to score 93 against us.

But KU looks so AWESOME beating up TCU.

They're still Kansas, though. And you know voters are just itching to keep moving Kansas and Andrew Wiggins up.

Impossible to justify moving them past San Diego State, though.

I think we're going to continually get screwed over by the guys voting us at 9/10.

Those guys likely aren't going to put us over Michigan State and Villanova. So those losses don't really help us with them. Those guys are going to keep us in those spots. But I bet Michigan State helps Florida on their ballots.

They might not catch us this week, but I expect it to happen either this Monday or next unless Florida loses.

I think we'll be #3 in one poll and #4 (maybe stay at #5) in the other.

That's my guess. #3 in Coach's, #4 in AP.

I mean, sure, there are voters who are going to continue to give us the shaft. But those same guys who have us at 9 and 10 had us at 12 and 13 last week.

I guess I'm just tired of posters here trying to sound smart or paranoid by calling our peak in the polls. I've been fighting them on here for a month, and they've been wrong every time.
