[RussDaBus]

Shockers 66
Panthers 56

Durley with 14 pts and 8 boards

[Aargh]

Someone's getting pasted -and it aitn't gonna be the Shox.

Here's something for Mr. O'Rear

[RussDaBus]

By my calculations, according to ESPN, Murry is sitting at 977 career points. If he blows up on Wednesday he could join the 1000 point club.

The refs stink; we have 4 players in serious foul trouble after the first quarter; we throw up an ungodly number of 3's and miss two thirds of them; we turn the ball over 15 times; we make 5 of the 8 FT we are awarded; GM is tossed after two tecnicals: and we win 79-67.

What do we do the other 3 quarters.

Since you asked, 79, they all foul out by the end of the 1st half, and since we have such a deep team, our one remaining starter, plus our second team of "starters" carry us on to victory. Oh, I forgot to mention, EO grabs 15 rebounds and GS snatches another 13. :yahoo: :yahoo:

Ok, the last time I did a prediction I was so far off base it wasn't even funny.

So here goes, the shocks are once again slow out of the gate and the first half is a low scoring affair in the mid twenties for both teams. The 2nd half WSU explodes and puts a whoopin on UNI so bad that it brings back WuDrWu to shockernet.

UNI 52
WSU 69

Shockers get off to a quick start for once.

Shocks 72
UNI 63

Don't make predictions, but I will point you to the answer to your question about the Doc. Here is his last post which was posted at 11:25 p.m. on Jan. 9 after our loss to Missouri State:

It took about 38 years, but tonight finally broke me.
Allow me to rant a bit before I delete my account.

Hey guys, first TV game? I know its a 2 bit Valley program but can someone, anyone, figure out we aren't going to do the anthem before the lineups?

You know what? #### it. I'm not going to sit here for 40 minutes and type every last thing that pisses me off about how bad we do things.

Let me just say I am not blaming the kids. I thought they played hard even though the evening was one bad decision after another. I will not fault their efforts.

Good luck everyone, and take care!

Miss Doc and I hope he rethinks and reconsiders.

Very few teams get enough posessions to score 70 against UNI. Conversely, against the Shocks, UNI won't get enough posessions to score 60.

WSU - 64
UNI - 55

However, in the rare event the game does make it into the 70s it means WSU is running them out of the gym. In that case, I'd go WSU 73, UNI 58.

Miss Doc and I hope he rethinks and reconsiders.

Unfortunate.

I remember Marshall stating on the radio a while back that there will be a few games you play above and below your ability. The MSU game was the latter.

I also hope he comes back - this team has a chance in a few days to break WSU's all time MVC road win start. Would hate any shocker fan to not be celebrating that.

Just bought 2 additional tix to the game in addition to my season tix so my boys could go. Ticket dept. said tix movement is better for Indy St. on Saturday than tomorrow night game. He said Wednesday games are the hardest to sell. I'm sure it will sell out, but come on Shocker fans...

Every game needs to have urgency at this point. this team can't absorb another home loss...it is unacceptable. So let's show up in our black or gold (I don't care) and help will this team to win the most important game of the year (which is the current game on the schedule). Then let's repeat it 11 more times (including BB) til the end of the conference season. Repeat 3 more times in STL. Repeat at least 2 more times at the Prom (any more than that will be gravy).

Maybe we should wait until we lose before we hope he come back. We're doing fine right now. We don't want to tempt fate.

:yes: Oh! This is so predictable! :)

it brings back WuDrWu to shockernet.

:lol: This is very unpredictable. :(

[Kung Wu]

Was the game against MSU when the cheerleaders put on their most epic fail routine ever? Maybe THAT's what put Doc over the edge?
