Here's the deal. This game will be like a poker game on the tube. Evansville final hand for all the marbles will be 4-purple aces from an obvious stacked deck. Great hand, no? However, you shant underestimate our beloved Shocks. FVV will draw into a smooth Ace High Royal Flush. We are not just lucky warriors, but rather play with a lot of heart and make road barns our temporary home as if we owned the joints. Then the Shocks leave angry and not satisfied in search of the next foe.
Mock is the #1 rebounder in the Country and leads the Valley in blocked shots. No, we don't want Balentine for our Valentine because he leads the Valley in scoring and minutes played. Thus, the Shocks will slow these 2 Aces to a mild roar. On team Valley stats, these 2 teams are similar in lots of areas. They are 6-2 and 17-4 and play at S. Illinois tomorrow night which will be interesting. Who do we want to win that game I ask? I watched Indiana State take them to the woodshed as the paint dried. The trees even had Great Scott drain a 3 on the famous picket fence play early in the matchup.
Never fear, our 1-2 punch of FVV and Bake will be near. I hope Shaq can get Mock in foul trouble. The heart of the matter is, this win will be huge in our quest to win the Valley Race as we go into the "back 9" of our games. We will get everybody's best shot but Defense wins Ships. No team in the Valley plays defense like us or has 2 All American guards on the same team. This will be one of our toughest contests on the back 9 of the "Valley Free For All" as Bake calls it. The Shocks prevail in a close one.
Mocks----59
