The Official WSU vs. UCONN Game Thread - Maui Style

[Rosewood]

Yes, indeed our Shocks are not stopping dribble penetration or getting much help as they flew by us. This happened even versus Newman. We had them down by 9 but did not finish. Things like bank-shot 3's, late whistles, quick whisles, multiple whistles, (43 throws for them), and not having an answer for Walker led to our demise. Both halves, we got a decent lead and allowed them to come back both times. Adversity is what Coach Marshall just called it and there was plenty of it.

This was the post (and similar ones) that i've been thinking about all year as I've watched UCONN play.

"Not having an answer for Walker"

Still makes me chuckle

They can join everyone else and wrap their lips around Walkers balls. I will now go back to not giving a damn about UCon. They can enjoy their medicore season and NIT trip.

We're still dancing this year

I blame you SubGod22. I BLAME YOU!

Fair enough. :cry:

A regular Nostradumass! Welcome to the club Sub, but I warn you it is quite a crowded club so it is tough to stand out consistently.

After reading my post from many moons ago, I remember it now just as I described it then. At that Tourney, I thought we played UConn about as good as anybody. Let's put it this way. Show me a team that gets 14 throws versus around 43 for UConn, and only loses by 4. Not THAT would take an excellent team with plenty of quality depth. Even so, my hat is off to K. Walker. He was consistent all Season long and quite the "Go To" player. He will make good money in the Bigs.

3 of our 8 losses were to:

a Sweet 16 team
a Final Four team
a National Champion

and the other 5 were all against MVC teams.

And I believe we were 6-1 against BCS teams (wins- UVA, LSU, UNL, VaTech, WaSU, Alabama; only loss- UCONN, the ncaa national champ).
