Shockers took everything Bama threw at them and then calmly and surgically answered back, making plays at winning time. Shox get 11 offensive boards and win that battle by 12.
Shox outscored Bama by 11 at the line, making 93% for the game.

Apologies are in order for ruining a couple of Valley fans' night with the win to go to 11-0 on the year.

BYU, St. Louis, and Tennessee are "below average"? Alabama I will give you, but the others? Come on.

Well that might be the dumbest comment in this thread. But it's early, so I'm sure someone will beat it.
5-0 over top 100 RPI teams. We now likely have more than the rest of the Valley combined.
Our SOS was #67 before this game. Pitt's is #158. Bit of a difference there.
Rough game, but we survived. Relaford had a hell of a game for Bama.

Give him the benefit of the doubt in that he was referring to Pittsburgh having below average wins. He was referring to the perception of WSU in general.

Below average teams don't win 15 straight home games.
Yes they're 5-5 but a 10 point loss to Duke and a 5 point loss to WSU, 2 top 10 team, don't send them to the bowels of below average.
That's a quality team, with a borderline superstar in Releford.

Probably an NIT team if we're being honest. They will trip up some decent teams at home but don't have the shooters to crack the top 50.
Any win is a good win on the road, however, and I am one happy Shocker fan.
