WSU Versus Saint Louis Predictions and Pregame Discussions

[Shocker-maniac]

Wish list:
1. A Shocker win, of course.
2. I would like to see Morris, Kelly, Nurger, and Wamukota get many, many touches. The more gametime experience they get, the better they become:
3. DC not get into foul trouble.
4. FVV light the place up with a spectacular game.
5. Another posterizing dunk by TC.

I think this one is going to be closer with a bit of a hang-over from the loss but that it's not in doubt in the last 10 minutes:

Mascot vaguely elephantine: 63
Mascot vaguely druidic: 72

[1979Shocker]

Atihciw - 87
Aslut - 52

So you're saying we win 78-25?

Darius will probably play around the same amount of minutes as the Utah game, but it won't be because of foul trouble.

Just added a new item to my wish list:

6. Hearing 15,000 Shocker fans singing, "You don't wanna go to warrrr with the Shockers . . . ". That will be beautiful.

Panera 79
St.Louis Bread Company 57

Are you saying that St Louis owns us? :highly_amused: Mmmm Panera.

I hope the team was able to get some decent rest, they probably arrived home about 4:30AM Thursday. Nonetheless,

KICT 79
KSUS 61

Keep piling on the playing time and experience for our newer guys.

SLU has beaten 3 MVC teams ... WSU better come to play.

This ain't 2006 anymore.

SLU beat Bradley by 3. Texas A&M Corpus Christi beat Bradley by 14. North Carolina A&T beat Bradley by 8.
SLU beat Southern Illinois by 3. Kent State beat SIU by 23. Yale beat SIU by 7.
You could give SLU a little credit for beating Indiana State by 13, but Indiana State is garbage this year too. IUPUI took them to OT. Austin Peay took the down to the wire in Terre Haute.

SLU has played one top 100 team all year. They lost to mediocre Mississippi State by 25. I think WSU could sit 2-3 starters and still win this game by 10.

Wichita - 89
"God, I hate this town" - 54

[60Shock]

The Don't Need No Luckers - 84
The Good Luck Charmers - 64

Wow, that one sure flew over your head.

Not surprisingly.

We only had 8 assists against Utah - we need to double that. I hate to see us resort to KU style ball where guys are each trying to break down the defense. For once, we do have a few guys that can to that, but we need to run our plays harder and set out picks harder. When guys spend time "breaking down the other team's defense," it makes a lot of standing around (unless you have the ball). KU style basketball. This is not us. Heck, when KU actually shares the ball, they are a good team. It' nice to have guys that can break down the opposition's defense - but with 5 seconds on the shot clock - not 20 :)

St. Louis 52
#8 Wichita State 78

Shocks -17.5, more than I expected, but probably where it needs to be to get action on StL. Woo hoo it's game day boys!
Let's go.

I wasn't arguing with SB Shock. I was adding to his sarcastic point about the MVC being garbage.

Stop trolling.
