Wichita State (NCAA 1st Round) Game Thread
Tough Draw against a Fantastic Team in the Shockers (who average over 82 a game)... Should be a heck of a crowd... It feels great to be in the tourney for a 4th straight year!
Game is on Friday at 7:10 and will be shown on CBS.
Starting Lineup:
G 33 Conner Frankamp 6’1” 172 RS JR Wichita, Kansas
G 11 Landry Shamet 6’4” 188 RS FR Kansas City, Missouri
F 1 Zach Brown 6’6” 215 JR Houston, Texas
F 32 Markis McDuffie 6’8” 212 SO Paterson, New Jersey
C 24 Shaquille Morris 6’8” 265 RS JR Edmond, Oklahoma
McDuffie is easily their best player... 11.8 Points and 5.7 Rebounds a game. As a team they shoot 40.8% from 3 which is nuts, 2 of their starters (Shamet and Frankamp) shoot about 45%.
Rebound the ball and Defend the 3... Let's do this!
I want a shot at Kentucky!
I Believe! Go UD!

#Dayton over Wichita. Dayton starts all seniors, all tourney tested, not soft. Will be a good game, but UD is impeccably coached like WSU.
When a reader responded that UD will be a big underdog-

I just looked at WSU message board. Most are predicting an easy win. If the February edition of the Flyers show- i dont think it would matter who we played, we'd win. If the March edition shows up, we could be in trouble. Either team will get a shot at UK- that alone should be plenty of motivation. Good luck Flyer seniors - finish with all out effort- thats all we want to see.

One thing that is very interesting - Wichita State last played on 3/5. So it will be almost two weeks between games when they hit the court again on Friday against the Flyers.
Not a heck of lot better for the Flyers as they will have played only one game over that same stretch.

The "experts" pick
I just scrolled through the bracket picks of about a half dozen CBS sports "experts". Every one had WSU moving on past the Flyers.
Good!....just the position we want to be in, in my opinion. I hope all the WSU players read the same stuff.

Yes, I saw that....hope he's right.
Our guys have more to play for than WSU, in my opinion. For a few of our guys this could be the last college game they will ever play. And the NBA is not right around the corner. WSU is young and their guys do not have the same perspective. I hope that is a plus for us.

Quote:
A FIRST ROUND LOSS WOULD...
... End Wichita State's season at 30-5.
... Be the program's first one-and-done in the NCAA Tournament since 2012 when they fell to No. 12 seed VCU in the Round of 64.
... Snap a 15-game winning streak.
... Make Gregg Marshall 9-6 in six NCAA Tournaments at WSU and 10-13 overall in 13 trips.
... Be less good than a win.

WSUs sports info office throws in a couple funny lines in the write up. I liked this one:
16 players on roster
261 different Lineups used by Marshall
15,000+ different lineups left to explore
I didn't know Marshall was related to Gregory???

We tip off in approximately three hours. I will be here. I will probably post some stupid stuff. I will probably post some sarcastic stuff. I will maybe post some good stuff and maybe some entertaining stuff. I will probably swing from the lowest low to the highest high. Through it all, though, short of being at the game I know this will be a great place to hang out just as it's been this entire season. Here's to something we've never done (four straight NCAA tournament appearances), here's to an amazing senior class, and here's to another two-hour roller coaster of emotions!

I saw that pre game (4pm) or so dance and song video. The big advantage is that 4 or 5 of our guys have BEEN THERE before, I think they 'll be quite loose leading up to the game and getting started.
Wichita may feel the jitters and their own slow start . Main question to me, is will our shots be falling early. I have NO qualms with the guys being ready.
They are!

Our guards are guarding the perimeter pretty well. They banked in one three and have been blanked since. If we keep their guards in check, we win. It is that simple.

Bull. The clock operator reset the clock too f-ing soon. The refs couldn't tell if the clock ran out, so they had to go with the call on the court. Foul on Mikesell. 1 & 1 for WSU.
Fouls starting to mount for the good guys. Shockers still with only 5.

The ref didn't raise his hand for the foul unit after the clock hit 0 and then reset to 30. They got that one wrong. Sorry Rollo but its true a group of refs made the wrong call.
