5 of the last 7 in Wichita, and 10 of the last 15 overall. Borderline dominance...

I can see it being a "let down" game but I really hope the players use the CU game as a springboard.

If I had a gun pointed at me telling to me to pick a winner I'd go WSU by about 6....I'm hoping I'm wrong though.

Why throw in borderline?

It is dominance.

Better coach, better system and better players hands down.

If Marshall stays, but I doubt he is here next year, I would take the Shockers to turn that around in the next 15.

Yeah game of the millennium. :huh: Seriously get over the fact you lost and we stormed the court.

I really think WSU will win this game, and depending on if they are focused could win easily. Don't forget we only lost by 3 at home against the Shox, and actually were leading the majority of the way. I still have to pick WSU to win this game by around 10. WSU is the most talented team in the conference, and when not hindered by mental mistakes or coaching errors they are really really good. If they play disciplined we don't stand a chance. I think we will actually be up for this game, and the players will be playing with lots of confidence. Hopefully WSU is looking ahead to a trip to Omaha.

That sentence has been said about them for the last three years or so....but for some reason they seem to make some mistakes at some really bad times....

Yeah I know but when they put it together, like in the NIT last year, you saw what they can do.

But you have to admit that storming the court is pretty bush league, might as well do the wave also.

Well you quoted the wrong person, but funny story is the student section did try to get the wave going that game as well...

DId someone just say game of the millennium? Please, don't flatter yourselves Jays fans. Probably the greatest game at the relatively new McLeod Center but you're no Kansas. Hoping the boys can carry it over to tomorrow night and shock the Shox! The top of the Valley is their's for the taking though
[Insert snappy comeback]

Not to continue the off topic banter, but the CU game was not the best game ever in the McLeod Center.

Top 5 maybe, but not the best.

Back to the WSU game, I don't see UNI pulling it off, but I really hope I am wrong. The 10.5 point line seems high, but Vegas isn't necessarily making any predictions with their betting lines, but merely hoping for equal action on both sides.
