SIU Game Thread

If we truly don't call fouls in practice, why can't we finish around the basket?

I'd like to see a dunk again. Just 1.

We are absolutely smoking SIU.

I told you guys if you controlled Beane it would be an easy win. There is so little talent on the SIU roster outside of him.

By the way, thanks Ron for keeping it simple. Take the open shot.

SIUs defense is going to come out the 2nd half with their hair on fire. If we can match that intensity and break their will, this will be a blow out. If we don't match their intensity they will whittle away at our lead.

If we can jump on them early in the half and stretch the lead out to 20+ we can perhaps take the crowd out of the game.

Hate to complain with a 15 point lead at the half but we should be up by 25. Our post players (Grady, Shaq, Kelley and Wamukota) need to bring something to the table.

One odd stat is the 9 fouls spread among 9 different Shocker players.

Agree. 2/8 shooting with 4 rebounds in 29 minutes combined for these four is brutal.

Maybe we dont. Maybe we get the **** hacked out of us in practice so we never finish anything....

Side Note: Why are the Chiefs playing in Houston when they have a better record and defeated them in week 1?

Houston is a division winner, chiefs are a wildcard team

[Rosewood]

I wonder which refs we are going to get in the 2nd half

Houston was a Division winner and the Chiefs were a wild card.

I don't think they will make it easy. I expect them to play much better the first few minutes of the 2nd half. If we step up and keep it at least even then they will fold.

Ron not playing "nice" today. Kind of like it.

wish we had reverse angle on Zach to see if anybody could put their lip-reading skills to use.

Houston won their division; KC is a wildcard team. Wildcard teams always travel.
