WSU vs Bradley Game thread

[forevershockerfan]

So when the Bradley guy shoved RB down right in front of a ref, why no foul?

This spooky "no call" made me think of the Creighton player that dropped kicked the rock up into the rafters and got no whistle way back when. Again, all but 3 people saw this play transpire just as when Cotton got kicked in the chest by the Redbird as the ref gazed at it and must had swallowed his whistle until they reviewed it later. You know, the Redbirds and the 1-12 talent we often ponder about.

If he wants to be left in longer, he needs to learn to put his fist up when he gets tired. Until HCGM feels that he can trust that Shaq will let him know when he's tired, he's not going to leave him in there too long.

True. That is important now. We have the depth now where 3G does not have to ignore the fist up like a few times in the past with some key players.

Perhaps the quietest crowd all year, even though it was full save for a couple dozen student seats, but then again, the game was essentially an exhibition. Not much to get jacked about. Crowd energized by good play... timeout... on-court promotion... foul... timeout... foul... oh hey, look at them go... foul... promotion... foul... and so on and so forth.

He did make it to the 16 minute mark before coming out. That's 1.5 minutes longer than usual.

You guys shouldn't be too hard on the ref for that missed call.
He was on his lunch break!

On the postgame either Mike or Dave said that this is the fourth time in the past five games that WSU has beat BU by 30 points or more. That really can't continue against a program that should be fighting it out at the top of the league.

They got really loud for a guy winning a car. That's about it.

Entitled.

Whatever. It was a slaughter from the beginning. Some times, the other team sucks so bad that you tone it down out of politeness.

Didn't the ref literally catch a ball in the face just seconds before baker got thrown down?

The ball went OB the same time Bradley player pushed RB. No need to call a foul at that point with WSU leading by more than 30.

This, exactly. I noticed the crowd even stopped booing questionable calls, and thought it was probably because we were destroying them.

As much as anything, I was amazed that Suggs managed not to foul out, since he had four in the first half...

"The crowd sucked" thing is getting old. Recruits visiting and opponents fans are in awe of the atmosphere. It sounds good on tv. I'm tired of this storyline. Maybe it's just me.

Ditto. We have it pretty good.

lol, it's cool.

As long as Marshall doesn't mind the Centurylink type atmosphere, then I guess there's no problem. I'm sure Ron and Fred are ok with the excuse too.

Carry on.

Have u heard Ron and Fred complain?

When Ron gets uppercutted in the face, I rarely see him complain.
