Wichita St Shockers vs Kentucky Wildcats

Best of luck today against UK. Living here in KY almost every UK fan thinks it will be a cakewalk for the Cats. Show them how real team basketball is played and how college basketball should be.

Don't normally question Gregg, but how can you not get Early the basketball for that last shot? He had been on fire.

Great year Shox!

UK was switching everything. Tough to get Early or Baker the ball there for sure. Van Vleet is still a great 3rd option in that scenario. It looked to me like Baker was option one and Early was option two.

I won't blame the officials overall, but I definitely noticed a big time change in how the game was officiated after the first media timeout in the second half.

UK has a lot of talent. Tough loss, Shockers.

I thought the play would be to Early too..and fake a 3 if not open and go to the hoop. Early was hot as hell from behind the line.

The Shockers proved they were for real. Was a great game. A game every fan wishes for their team.

Shockers can be proud of their run, a record to remember.

It sucks but it's the way it goes and why this tourney is so great.

The bad part is the detractors will go crazy now trying to take away the great season.

I'm still pretty proud. They did the valley proud today IMHO

UK played its best game of the season. Shot out of their minds. If they brought this every game they would've been a 1 seed.

An absolute crime that this was played in the 2nd Round. This was a regional final game.

Disagreed with the 1-3-1 zone late that UK took the lead on. They were hitting jumpers all game, at that point make them earn it, don't offer them a freebie.

Shockers played 5-on-8 for a while late in the game. Believe UK went about 6 min. w/o a foul late, yet they were climbing all over Shocks just like WSU was them.

Amazing season, but ultimately NCAA got what it wanted when they designed this region, WSU out.
