Indiana State @ #5 Wichita State

[Wufan]

WSU is likely to lose a home game this year. We already beat ILSU and BU as expected, as well as beating UNI (who doesn't play well on the road). Remaining home games are: Drake (not a great road team), MSU (not a great road team), SIU (not a great team), LUC (not a great team), UE (not a great team), and InSt. The Sycamore's are the only remaining home team that I feel has a reasonable likelihood of winning at Koch. The other games are all low percentage chance of winning. Should be fun!

I think if this was in Terre Haute ISU might have a chance. I really just don't think someone is going to sneak up on WSU in Koch. I suspect the Shox win by around 6-10 points.

That's the beauty of the MVC...the Sycamores will apparently have a "chance" on Feb. 5th

Are you upset that I don't feel like you have a chance to beat WSU tomorrow?

What has Indiana State done that should make me believe they can go on the road at the toughest place to play in the conference against the #5 team in the country and actually win? Am I supposed to believe in your huge 3 point home win over Bradley? Am I supposed to believe since you went to Drake and won by 4?

This is my opinion that you have no chance tomorrow. I could be wrong, but that is currently my opinion.

Any team that has as much firepower as ISUb seems to have has a chance. If they are shooting well I think it will be close.

Khristian Smith could be the X-Factor for ISU today, if he has a big day it'll be close.

I fear the ISUb three ball. They shoot 40% from the the arc and the Shocker 3 ball defense is a weakness. The thing the Shocks have going for them is last year's home court loss to the Sycs. My hope is that this is a fresh reminder to the Shocks that ISUb can and has caused grief.

Go Shocks!

per twitter, ISU big man Khristian Smith has a 102 degree fever, so that's not good news for ISU at this point. He averages over 10 points per game.

I hope he gets better soon!

I figured it was going to be a sellout crowd but I looked on StubHub (obviously not planning on going) and there are only 4 tix left for the game! 2 for 23.99 ea and 2 for 93.00 ea. A ticket for 23.99 at the Hulman Center would basically put you in courtside seats. It really is a shame the folks in Terre Haute only come to games when we play a ranked team or it's for 1st place. The old clips of the crowd in 1979 makes me believe one day we can get that back. I can guarantee the HC will be sold out on Feb 5th if we can come away with a win today.

If you are on stub hub, then those tickets are already sold and the owner is trying to resell them.

Per the link above, there are 18 tickets for sale, starting at $98.00 and going to $387.00 Those aren't the price from the box office, but I think I'll be watching from home today.
