Shockers doing what we should've done

[POD Lasalle Edition]

Wichita State is the 2nd-best program in Kansas now that K-State has oscar instead of Frank.  Sad, but true.

In about 8-9 hours, Wichita State will have the best program in Kansas as evidenced by being the only team from the wheat state left in the tourney...

 

 

What's funny? 

Odds are that Meatchicken wins tonight, thus leaving WSU as the only remaining team from Kansas.

I'd make fun of your ku education, but you're just a t-shirt fan.

 

Honestly KU and Michigan have both been up and down all year. I picked Kansas in this one, but i realize it can go either way. Michigan has more talent, but Kansas has more senior leadership. theres no single matchup it will boil down to, but if i had to pick a matchup it would be who ever is matched up with trey burke. contain burke and michigan is likely to lose

i consider his matchup with mclemore a push. both good players. the fact remains that someone will have to step up to check burke and prevent his penetration. when he gets in the lane he kicks it out to hardaway, robinson, or drops it down low for horford or mcgary(watch out for nick stausgas too 6'7 white boy is a mike miller clone). that's why i think the key matchup is at point guard, since its been exposed already that Kansas lacks a "true" point guard. the key will be defending burke and i stand by that as i have followed michigan since the Ark. game

Player of the match for Michigan in deed.  Credit due to you.

You guys know that isn't Trey Burke, right?

yes. i said burke was going to be the x factor. he posted the pic of hardaway as a response. then the conversation happened.

Yeah I thought that THJr's expression fit the convo rather well, looks questioning/are you serious? to me. 

Interesting games are heating up, exciting time for basketball BBSing.

This. I was pretty much getting past our game. I really want to feel good for WSU, but that was our bracket and we didn't even give ourselves a chance at it. :sigh:

Yeah.  While i'm beyond rough ridin' infuriated watching a team with a rallying cry which describes fingering a woman's vagina and ass go to the final four, I know they would have punished us.  So I am relieved knowing we didn't have to suffer the embarassment of losing to them.  Just the embarassment of losing to a 13 seed.

We haven't been a basketball school for a generation. We're football now. That stat should crystallize that.

Eh, you've been pretty good under Frank. He was so close to getting over the Hump. You should probably fire your cheapskate AD for running him off. just my thoughts

well, you know oscar.

sometimes the players follow the coach's gameplan to perfection and win, and other times the players don't execute

And sometimes the gameplan sucks so much ass that following it is detrimental to the teams success and adjustments are necessary. Which happened when La Salle mumped us for 20 minutes while oscar licked his lips and crap his pants. We've been over this.
