Wow.. the effort is there.

Let's sustain it ALLLLLL game today.

[Dan]

I like watching Toure bring the ball up. He's a much better ball handler than Reggie

[1979Shocker]

Creighton is making turnovers we'd normally make.

incredible block by Durley on an attempted dunk followed by a basket from Ellis

[ShockerFever]

Walker just got pwned.

[RoyalShock]

We actually got the last-second bucket going into halftime?

Maybe we do have a chance!

[1979Shocker]

Durley 0-3 from the line.

[Dan]

31-21 shox at half

[ShockerFever]

It's about time we got a shot at the end.


Let's not blow this boys.

[RoyalShock]

Key stats:

TOs + fouls: WSU 20, CU 14 (getting better here)

Rebounds: WSU 26, CU 12 (great to see this!)

FG: WSU 46%, CU 24% (I don't expect this to last)

3FG: WSU 5-10, CU 2-8

FTs: CU 7-10, WSU 0-3 (have to reverse this)


Hopefully Walker is OK. But if he's out we need to be pounding the ball into middle every single time and get some fouls and/or easy buckets.

[Dan]

I know Ellis gets a bad rap around here, but I really like his potential. He's starting to show some promise and you can't deny his size and athleticism. I think he'll be a pretty good player over the next 2 years.

[RoyalShock]

I think Ellis is a kid who if he comes in and does something positive early, he relaxes, gets into the game and has a good one.

Here's a shocking stat: Five blocks in the 1st half.
