#16 WSU @ Drake Official Game Thread

[Rosewood]

The one thing that keeps me positive is remembering we were swept by Evansville the final four year!

Evansville's big guy will get a hard on watching the tape on this game.

13.5 that went up to 16.

Well then they are morons

DO NOT PLAY THIS WAY AGAINST THE REDBIRDS ON SUNDAY. :) I don't think I can handle it, and I don't want to have to hear any more from cagebanks/Dan Muller.

I am not scared of Illinois State, especially at home.

We stomped the Dogs.

Stomped on their poop you mean. Eeeuuwww...

Well, okay, glad this one is over. Great job by Ron finally getting pissed off enough to take charge of the game.

It is becoming clear Baker will be a Shocker next year.

Maybe.

[ShockerPrez]

I think the Shox are ready for some Chuck Koch love!

[Rosewood]

Maybe.

I'll bet money.

We are now 99-47 against Drake. That's good. We just had way too much trouble getting the ball into our big's for easy baskets. That's bad.

I'm thinking our team is a bit too tightly wound right now. Haven't seen any smiles this year. Lufile reminded me of "Good News". Early averaged at least one or two smiles per game. Maybe we don't have that type of character this year. We're too tight....too tight.

This post resonates with me, our team had plenty of toughness and intensity. But no one brings the joy like Lufile and Cle could. I almost feel like that part of our chemistry, the joy of the game, is missing this year.

Not that the players don't love the game, but i agree they are wound too tight.

Ron got on track by going inside..then outside..

We better bring the love. They earn it just by playing. It is one thing to be snarky here but at CKA it should be all love all the time for our boys.

We got out rebounded by 9 by Drake? That's bad. We are undefeated in the Valley. That's good.

Yes. So far it has been Choke Kock..

[wusphlash]

We really need some inside offense to make this thing go.
