11-11-06 vs. Washington St.

Derrick Low, we cant give this kid open looks from behind the arc, he will kill us like he did vs. UAB

Force turnovers, stop Low and a good tough defence, we should be good to go.

Pretty confident bunch over there. A few people predicting a sweep in the tourney after beating UAB last night.

It makes me want our guys to win this game even more.

I'm fully prepared for a low scoring battle tonight, especially if we struggle to find good shots like we did in the first 6 minutes of yesterday's game.

Wash St is only favored by 2.5 tonight.

Wow. Can't play defense. Can't shoot. Down 18 and it will probably get worse the way they are playing.

[jg]

Damn shows what I know, I thought this would be an even game!!!

Yeah, we have no inside pressure. They've been dumping it to Clark all night long.

Not going to beat a high school team shooting 25%. Plus Wash hit 60% from the field and from 3.

I don't remember what his name was but how many times did they leave that 33 wide open under the net. After two times I would have had someone stick an elbow into his chest and knock his ass to the floor.

Hopefully we can take UAB tomorrow. Depends which team shows up for them. The one that played Wash or the one we saw tonight against Radford. 'Course it might have been Wash's defense.

28.6% from the field...what the? Is this going to ge the issue on this team? Can't anyone score consistantly? Some of the guys out there look like they never shot a basketball before. Hell, the old lady in that shooting contest during the game shot better than UWM!

We are getting killed inside, so where is Mauldin? Why does he not play more. His stats are good for the short amount of time his is in there. He tends to have the same number of points and rebounds as he does minutes. So? Or even put in Bendall, Averkamp, or Nick Hansen. Anyone that can be aggressive and maybe get some inside strength. It's not like our regular rotation is any more of a scoring threat. Or at least they have not shown to be.

And I saw Skinner leave with an ice pack on his hip? he going to play today vs UAB?

First Panther game I have seen this season.

Pearl left a land mine for the program in Jeter's second season. Few programs can graduate 7 players without major disruptions. UWM is not UNC or UConn that can reload in a year.

WSU played classic Bennett type half-court defense. The Panther's offense was disrupted. The Panthers have no established low post presence. Have no established perimeter shooters. The WSU program is further along on the road to rebuilding. Let there be no doubt that Rob was left with a rebuilding job in second season.

Wazzou was very good. They played a great game, rattled us and made us look bad. Let's see how our young guys react today.

[jg]

How big of a crowd was there Sat night? Hope it was good after the snow kept the crowd down on Friday night.

What happened in this game? I was at dinner with my in-laws, checking the score under the table. At one point, we were up about 24-17 with around 5 minutes left in the first half. The next time I checked we were down something like 42-24 with 5 minutes gone in the second half?
