WSU Versus Miami Predictions and Pregame Discussions
Nate Silver and crew have us as the likely winner of the Miami game and shows us a lot of respect however they calculate ether odds. The shockers are "more likely" to win the whole thing than a lot of higher seeds.
Interesting to watch the odds change in real time.
The interviews posted by GoShockers includes Marshall mentioning that Heiar and Jans did the prep for Arizona (mentioned elsewhere) and that Brown and Jans are doing the prep for Miami. Anytime Chris Jans is doing the gameplan I feel pretty good that if we lose it won't be because the scouting report wasn't on point.
"Cotton scared me - I left him alone." - B4MSU (Bear Nation poster) in reference to heckling players
So, I'm not clear on rules. I know Jans can't be on the bench; can he be in the locker room? Halftime analysis? Run a trainer out to HCGM with "advice"? ;-) Or maybe just a quick 3 min call at half?
Three games in 84 hours, in two different cities. Each game increasing in difficulty: A top-50, then a top-25, then a top-15. With a 3 hour flight thrown in there causing some lost sleep and inability to stretch after the first game. And about 36 hour turn around from the top-25 to top-15 match.
And somehow, Vegas has us favored.
This is the stuff of legends. And we're part of the movie!

All I know Shocker team, if their bench jumps up and starts yelling BALL, BALL, BALL! As their cheerleaders scatter to get out of the way, along with the whole of their coaching staff, plus the baseline referee and three beer vendors...... DO NOT fall for it. They'll stoop to any level for a win. I still hate them to this very day. Whatever the Rocks got cookin', I hope he gets food poisoning from it. Yes, I despise them that much. :hypnotysed: (If you're under forty, ask your parents)
I feel better now.
I can't wait for the Fred vs Ann Hell matchup. The Shox will have to tap the "Extra Effort" in this one.
KC Shox posts predictions on KU message boards now, and has steered clear from Shockernet.
I guess the embarrassment of his Vandy prediction is keeping him at bay.
What a p****.
Let's meet at the Eck the next home series and I'll show you how much of a p.... I am. How does that sound Fever. PM any time you like. I'll be holding my breath waiting for you to meet me there

Thinking about heading out to a bar. I guess fox and hound said they don't have the alumni watch parties anymore. Anybody know if they have them at a different location?
MADROCKS Sports Bar in Derby is one official location. Blarney Stone is the other.
