WSU Versus HAWAII Predictions and Pregame Discussions

[forevershockerfan]

Here's the deal. After last night's game, we are running on fumes. I did not even know who won the Hawaii-Nebraska game until I read it here. This will be an actual road game for our road warriors. We got to utilize our bench last night in deeper fashion and had some bright spots in that process. Issac Fotu was projected as one of their top players at 6'8".

WSU--ROAD WARRIORS---------77


Hawaii==RAINBOW WARRIORS-65

Hawaii might play a lot of zone, but the Shocks did well against a zone last night (at least the part I could stay awake for). A true road game is a different story though.

Sheesh, Hawai'i has 2 teams left on their schedule with a winning record right now....us and UC Davis. And we think the Valley is bad.

I guess we can look at it this way. Hawaii is actually more likely to be an NCAA tournament team than Nebraska...

Will this count as a true road game for the RPI & Selection Committee?

@kai: Is there a vomit in mouth key for @WuDrWu: post? Talk about killing the RPI come selection.

We will control tempo, win the turnover/assist battle, control the boards, and win by 20+.
Final margin dictated by how quickly we empty our bench.

Shocks 77
Buggles 56

I hate the idea of a true road game, but our guys have been there done that.

Shox - 78
Hawaii - 56
