But no doubt on a victory for me simply because...
1. It was an uptempo game and we've seen our weapons this year to keep up (especially against a Valley team). Check = comfortable.
2. Home game = comfortable.
3. Gregg Marshall = comfortableFINAL FOURS:

Meanwhile, back on topic, this game really highlighted that the Shocks need to tighten up some defensively. Their KenPom defensive rating keeps sliding, and it's not hard to see why.

Beating a 10-6 Valley team with a 140+ rpi does not get any brownie points with the Selection Committee. They might even look at the 12-point margin of victory at home and penalize the Shox for the game.
If the Shox were in a stronger conference, they might lose and show that they may not deserve an at large bid this year, but at least they'd have a chance to show that they did deserve a bid. They can't do that in the Valley.The future's so bright - I gotta wear shades.
We like to cut down nets and get sized for championship rings.
