I'll say i'm honestly worried about this game, LaSalle's 4 guard attack could be the end to our run in the dance. Hopefully our D is going to be ready to go again tonight because they'll basically need to be attached to their guy all game. I don't think we'll need our shots to fall at the same percentage they did against Gonzaga to win, I think this can be one of those games where a lower percentage can win it but i'd sure take another great day of shooting. I'm going to go ahead and say we win by about 8-10.

60 years ago this week Bradley lost the NCAA title game to LaSalle for LaSalle's only national title. I Hope the Shockers fare better. Go Shox! This BU fan will be rooting for you.

I'm hoping we don't take them lightly, but I'm not very worried. La Salle simply would not have beaten either Kansas State or Ole Miss if they had hit their FTs ... K-State shot 53% and Ole Miss shot 46%. They've got a good team, but zone defenses scare me as a WSU fan ... these guys are going to play fast, athletic, with a half court press and man coverage. That doesn't scare me. That reminds me of Detroit.

The foam Wu Shock he displayed was priceless. Just guessing he didn't throw up a Blue Jays foam character in the last 3 weeks on national TV...just sayin!!! :bounce:

This is a tough game for me to get a vibe on. WSU plays well as the underdog. Not so much as the favorite. But I feel like this team has took it to another level these last few games.

WSU will have to do better than 2-20 from 3. I am picking WSU in a squeaker.

:dance:

GO SHOCKS!!!!!

I like the Shox chances in this game as well. When the Shox fell behind Gonzaga in the second half of that game, I thought it was over. Van Vleet and Baker didn't let that happen. Those two freshmen rallied the Shockers and played with no fear. Here's to you WSU. Good Luck!

Ron Baker makes a significant contribution to WSU's overall BBIQ. That makes a difference. Same for VanVleet. In some of the games WSU lost that it seemed they should have won this year, BBIQ was a factor.
