@ShockerFever in 3....2.....1....

lol, I'm over it.

It's pretty obvious his bets and promises mean d*ck.

Moving on..

We have been truly outstsnding on the road (not too shabby at home either), and while it will be a tough, hard fought game, there is no way the Utes are going to derail the Shockers. We win by 12.

My god Utes, that's your message board? I feel like I jumped back in time to beginnings of the interwebs.

77-76 Shox.

Clutch shots by RB

Lol one of them compared our basketball program to Boise State football. Said we basically have 2-3 years of basketball history. Then went on to say "Just like Boise state fans are new to football, are Shocker fans new to basketball?"

I think someone should inform him... but it'd probably take you a few hours to figure out how to post a reply on that site.

Really close game think the Shockers will win 78-73. But I wouldn't be surprised if this is their 1st loss. I hope I won't see that tho!

I'm not convinced that this game will get into the 70s. Both teams are 250+ in the nation in tempo and top 35 in adjusted defense. We scored 71 on Memphis and they are #34 in KP defense to Utah's #32, but Memphis plays at a higher tempo.

I think first team to 65 wins and it might not even take that.

You know...I just thought of another thing that happens at ALTITUDE. Cottons' DUNKS!!!! He might just get an opportunity to go another 4-6 inches higher and posterize one of their 7-footer's at ALTITUDE!!!

Did the altitude bother the team when they played Pittsburg or Gonzaga?

I know, right? I just hope he doesn't re-jam his finger on the ceiling rafters on the way down.

After WKU last year beginning at midnight at home, this is no biggie. I can see it in my own living room.

Caught a couple glimses of Utah, and I would say this will be our toughest game to date. They have good size and some really good guards. This will be a game where our guard play will really be the key to how the night will go....must haves are making a good % of our freethrows, Darius staying out of foul trouble and staying on the floor, and our youngsters playing under control. We need about 15pts and 10 rebounds from our young bigs, and Rian just needs to come in and be solid...Shocks 68 - Utes 60

[DUShock]

I suspect this will be our first cardiac event but the Shocks prevail 68-63
