Love this tournament.

Anyway, first team to 10 should win this UCONN-Wichita St game.

Just like to point out, that this point in the game, about 4 minutes in, the fans in gold are by far more vocal than their counterparts... also, my cousin, a WSU alumni and attending the game says that the Shocker fans around her are all wanted OU to shock the world as well... WOO SHOCKS

 

[Sam]

Shockers got to double digits first, stop the game now. They're going to win.

Shockers playing pretty salty right now. If they keep it up UConn could be in trouble.

Maybe we can get them to root for OU...as most of the fans do in tournaments anyway (root for the underdog)...

dang

Wichita State not backing away from UConn at all. Shockers look like the better team (if they can get UConn off the darn boards)

UConn takes the lead just before the half. May end up being a blowout now.

I'm surprised by how many fans WSU brought...I'd love to see them upset UConn here.

 

[NickZepp]

How many of those were really just hoping for the upset?

How many of those were really just hoping for the upset?

An entire half of the bleachers that faced the TV were dressed in yellow, so I'm pretty sure they're all legit WSU fans.

P.S. - These rims are really loose...could help a team like ours that loves to shoot the 3.

Don't know why everyone is so shocked (no pun intended) about Wichita State this year, they are the runaway preseason favorite in the Missouri Valley. Gregg Marshall is a solid coach, was very successful at Winthrop.

 

[NickZepp]

Looked like UConn was going run away with it to start the half but then Wichita State went on an 8-2 run to take a 3 point lead. Now it's a 4 point lead with a 3.

 

[NickZepp]

WSU has been pretty relentless so far. UConn gets within 4 or 5 and then WSU gets a run to go back up by 9.

 

[coolm]

pretty obvious who the REFS want to win.

 

[NickZepp]

Kemba Walker is taking over the game right now. 25 points in the second half. UConn up 2

 

[NickZepp]

Looks like UConn will pull it out. Kemba Walker was just too good.

 

[BigTime]

MSU and Chaminade on at 8:30

UVA and Wash not on until 11 central time.

 

[Sam]

33-25 Silver Swords over the Spartans, 7 minutes left in the first half.

This is the one time I'm not pulling for the underdogs. I don't want to face Michigan State in the losers bracket championship!
