WSU VERSUS INDIANA STATE PREDICTIONS AND PREGAME DISCUSSIONS

[Blackmag]

Only seen bits a pieces of ISUb this year, I know the starters are solid, but they aren't great on the defensive end. Should be a good challenge and should give us an idea if we are coming out of the funk we were in. Darius and Shaq need to stay out of foul trouble and if they do we should roll. Shocks 75 - Trees 62.

I'm still impatiently waiting for Kelly and Brown to blossom. Shaq is almost there. Need hose three to show something late in the season if we are going to win any games in the tourney. Against the Trees would be a good place to start.

Brenton Scott is a good one. I have trouble separating him from Reed Timmer for the FOY award.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. After all that just a 10 point win? C'mon man. Let's feel the love and power of our 1 game momentum. Shox by at least 18.

Shocktoberfest, thank you for the response. I intentionally tried to keep my prediction simple and left out other crucial statistics, metrics, algorithms, etc. and will discuss them in greater detail at around noon.

Since I believe there will be sufficient interest in this information, I will create a new thread dedicated to this discussion.:friendly_wink:

Just funnin' ya JH4P, Have a great day Shocker Nation!

Happy and sad about this. Happy: I'm going to the game now! Sad: It's not sold out yet?

Looking forward to embarrassing the students I'm sitting by. Because I'm way louder than they are.

Papke.

They out scored us that half as I recall.

Papke? Karl didn't play in that game. That was an Eddie Fogler game and Papke didn't play for Fogler.

Brenton Scott is a good one. I have trouble separating him from Reed Timmer for the FOY award.

I don't. Timmer wouldn't see the floor for several Valley teams. Scott would for every one. Timmer, while a nice player, is the product of a bad program this season. I might argue Scott's not the best freshman in the league, but it's hard to argue with him getting the award, at least so far. There's still 1/3 of the schedule to be played though.

[ShockerFever]

WSU opens up as 17.5 favorites.

I think that's awfully generous. But then again, if we found "it" again, we could cover. I certainly don't see Marshall running it up a la Drake for this one though.

[WuDrWu]

That's an insane line.

[RoyalShock]

No score prediction, other than to offer this bit of arborism trivia:

What happens to Sycamores when subjected to 40 minutes of Koch Arena pressure?

S'mores.

[1972Shocker]

That's an insane line.

Agreed.

[Shox21]

That's an insane line.

They must be basing that on the Mo State game ---- NOTHING should be based on the Mo State game.

[ShockerPhi]

I'm seeing the line has dropped a bit to 16 now. I'm wondering if people just see the .500 record of Indy State and just assume the worst.

[Shock Therapy]

It's not based on the Mo State game. RPI forecast has shown us as having a ~19 point advantage for a while now using Sagarin's model. I think that it's skewed by their horrible non con record.
