WICHITA ST VS ILLINOIS ST GAME THREAD!

[ShockerFever]

Not taking it personally.

You can say I'm his biggest critic, but in reality, I'm just calling what I'm seeing. Some may not see the same view as me. That's perfectly fine.

Toure had a great game today. IMO, he has taken some of the same shots as he has all year except today he managed to hit em. If they don't go in, they were bad shots. I'm thrilled he was able to find his groove and I hope to God he sustains it through tomorrow. My only fear is that his head inflates a tad and he tries to do too much tomorrow and we have empty possessions again.

Let's just hope we play team ball and the shooters who are hot continue to stay hot. And more importantly, everybody cut down on the stupid, STUPID turnovers... Going slightly off-tangent, I think a lot of us have skimmed over the way we finished this game. It was not pretty. A 9 point lead with a minute left should have been easily enough. We had 2 completely moronic turnovers hand-gifted to ISU, in which they converted scores on. That needs to change tomorrow against UNI or we're doomed.

But yes, congrats to Toure, and EVERYBODY for the huge win.

After a historic win tonight, let's just all be happy and positive.

Half of the curse has been removed!!


ONE MORE WIN BABY!


I am VERY proud of this team right now. Play like you want it tomorrow. This is for the marbles boys!

no props for Toure's play tonight by his biggest critic

Uh, did I specifically give props to anybody tonight? I make a freaking generalized statement and now I'm getting called out by you for a game he finally went off in?

Gimme a f***ing break. We won. There was a CORE of players that enabled us to win today and get into tomorrow, Toure included, but not the rule. So with that, congrats to EVERY player today who contributed.

And as I say this, I'm watching College Basketball Final on ESPN and Lunardi now has us as one of the Last 4 Out. It makes the Drake, Evansville, and Bradley losses even that more painful. It's a shame Toure (and others) didn't show up in those and we might not had to worry about winning tomorrow to get into the dance.

So please spare me with the "props" bs and how about we just all be happy for the team?

Ok?

Great.

Thanks.

I think most folks would give Toure the credit for the dagger by virtue of his late 2.

I thought DW's 3 ball from the corner was the back breaker. He made two attempts to feed the post, but he was unsure he would be successful. So he said to himself, f*c* it, I am shooting the ball. Boom!
