#2 Wichita State vs. Southern Illinois OFFICIAL Game Thread

[rialaigh]

Baker had got to find his freaking range. We need his 3 to start going in. Also wondering why players go off on us at home.

Players tend to go off on us consistantly every game in the first half...I don't think anyone is playing out of their mind against us, we are just flat out playing poor.

It would be hard not to doubt at this point. The #4 team in the country should make a 10-15 SIU team look like a 3A high school team. Especially at home.

Sit back, relax, enjoy the increased blood pressure. The run ought to start before too long.

I'm not worried about this game, I'm worried about spotting a top10 team 20 points in the first half in the tournament only to make a quick exit in the sweet 16

[LandStander]

Someone want to try defending Beane?

I don't think it would matter. He's been playing out of his mind!

[another shocker]

Did someone forget to tell them that SIU is 10-15?

shocker locker pregame show (1410 am) said siu didn't belong on the same floor with the shockers. 'didn't believe them.

People are so damn whiny in the first half of games.

We're 25-0. At what point do you people ever develop any confidence in your team?

When they stop doing this crap.

How many games this season have we played elite basketball for more then 25 minutes....because I can't think of more than a handful and that just doesn't cut it against the top teams in this country

Yeah, and I was worried last year when SIU beat us at home that we wouldn't even make the tournament.

Guess what worrying pointlessly in the middle of the conference against a sub-.500 team does for you?

[Rlh04d]

When they stop doing this crap.

You whine in every single one of these game threads, and then disappear the moment we start doing well.

A few bad minutes in a game doesn't justify turning on your team.

I have no confidence whatsoever with this team. The 25-0 was against NAIA competition, all home games, before topless cheerleaders. We better hope we don't get a #1 or we will definitely be the first to lose to a 16. And, the luckiest point guard in the country is Fred Van Vleet. Its all luck. No real competition. Sheeeeesh

Over on mvcfans you said that you hadn't ever seen baker dunk. I'm wondering if anyone else remembers him throwing down just a ridiculous dunk really early in the season last year at home? It wasn't Tekele Cotton good, but it was definitely something.

[ShockerMas]

Yikes, ugly 3 attempt

[ShockerPrez]

Gamecast just listed Shaq Morris with a to? Wtf?

No.
