Shockers road

[Ricardo del Rio]

I think the early trail will be Cal Poly, WSU by 25

Kansas State, WSU by 15

Louisville, WSU by 11

Duke, WSU by 6

I wish there was an icon for a red heart. Thank you.

Seth Greenberg has pulled his support. He says KY will put us down.

We are in the all hype region. Kentucky was preseason #1. Louisville was preseason #3. Duke #4 and Michigan #7. It's all jersey and no substance, not that they are bad teams, and they have fantastical coaches, but these teams are quite beatable, and if you want a national title, these are the teams you have to beat.

KY just doesn't have heart...players come to Kentucky as a doorway to the NBA....I don't think it is youth so much that hurts them; it is a lack of "team" effort, lack of school spirit....talent is there, but it is just not the same as having a group of guys playing for their school, their team.....

So, Shockers, just keep doing what you do. Your TEAM should be able to defeat the loners who wear the KY jerseys for only a year or two, and who always have one foot heading toward the NBA. To me, it is just not what college basketball is all about, but maybe that is just my thinking as I am a Bobby Knight Hoosier fan from years ago....now love my Aces, too.

Wow. Kentucky is NOT the matchup the Shox want to see. Kentucky plays bad at times, but Wichita won't have an answer for Julius Randle.

I think it's more likely Kentucky won't have an answer for Early and VanVleet.

WSU should be playing with a chip. They have a reason now as they appear to be in a bracket designed for the sole purpose of keeping them out of the final four. I don't think it will work.

Go Shockers!

Good Luck Shockers! Toughest bracket but all winnable! Go get the trophy!
