NCAA Tournament - Wichita State vs. Vanderbilt Official Game Thread

This kind of reminds me of the Pitt game in 2013.

Yep

Letting the opponant control the tempo...again. I think we could push it on these guys; Fred has done it somewhat.

[ShoxRoxMySox]

why are shots not falling (besides the obvious poor shooting lately). Is vandy defending well? poor shot selection? rushed shots?

Nuts are shriveling up, not hangin'

I agree, the inconsistency of this team all year has been mind boggling, and that includes our seniors who I still say have pressed way too much

Fred and Ron need to drive and penetrate. Conner needs to look to shoot, pump fake and get fouled to make free throws.

RK and Brown are stinking it up on both ends. 3/4 positions will be wide open next year.

Absolutely everybody on the team and staff was saying Kelly was the most improved player over summer. Looking at everybody else, maybe they were right.

Was it really that fugly in the first half?

[Shockers5150]

Just wish connor had the confidence to crank 8 shots, get in a flow.

Fred Van Rocky gave us a nice boost in this rough and tumble 1st half. I could have swore when FVV was out of the game I heard the voice of Adrian belloring, "stitch him and get his behind back in thar!!!!!!!".

Both defenses made both offenses play somewhat ugly. Glad Vandy missed throws because we gave them way too many unguarded opportunities. Baker, CF, Brown, Shaq, and MM will get it together in this 2nd half and score their fair share of points from the field.

thats just it.. its poor shooting

[ShockerFever]

Cuz both teams got sum dumasses playin.

Is the Creighton game over or something? How is that NIT?

I started with a nice Belle Meade Single Barrel, but to match with the quality of this game, I'm gonna move to something a little lower priced.

[im4wsu]

It looks to me like we have pretty good movement. Have made a couple of turnovers because we turned down the first easy pass in favor of trying to over achieve

I remember it being physical but I thought we beat them down from the get go. I could be wrong

Only 2 starters scored. Thank goodness for Grady. Show up SHOX.
