Throw some stats out:

Running the bill james log5 formula to predict the game using Ken Pomeroys pythagorean win %, WSU wins this game 74.8% of the time
Using the Sagarin ratings WSU favored by 4.83
Vegas line, opened WSU -9, now -10
 
Thorburn saying there could be a huge lineup shakeup due to players being late for meetings today.
 
Thorburn

Boyle wouldn't say how long the punishment lasts, but all the players are in uniform.
 
WTF? tini said Nate is in Boulder! What does this do to the, umm, point sp...I mean how will this effect the outcome?
 
early thoughts -

nate is looking for his shot when he is open, very good sign
brown looks good
sharpe looks out of control and playing too fast
dre forcing it on O
 
Seems like Wichita St. will live and die by the 3 ball. Maybe its just the way we are playing defense but I can live with that. We are playing better than I thought. Alota game left
 
Wichita st. is very good at penetrating and hitting the open man. This is a very good team we are playing

Totally the D you guys are playing. I am impressed. I will be even more impressed if you guys can keep it up for 40 minutes.

Just in the last 3-4 possessions we've pushed low. That is our game. If we can keep it up, our game will open up more.
 
That's what I figured. I like your team alot. Seems like they have guys at all positions. Nothing amazing but everyone seems to know there role.
 
I love what I see right now.... not so much what is coming in the next few weeks, but more what will be coming in conference play and in the coming years. I'm no bball guy, but I can see the talent the young guys have. Once the scorers and finishers emerge, this team will be pretty good
 
WSU has some shooters, but I can't believe the game plan included launching this many. Buffs are doing a good job of keeping the Shox out of their inside/outside game. The Buffs game plan is well-scouted, well-planned, and well-executed.

On the WSU side, the 3's are falling, but it's hard to keep up that kind of shooting for an entire game. Stutz is half-a-step or a step slow compared to the Buffs post players.

Either WSU started getting a little more comfortable toward the end of the half or WSU's depth started weaaring the Buffs down. The Shox regularly play a lot of players and tend to be strongest in the last 5 minutes of each half.
