Let's shock some mouth breathers today.
We win today, we are 2 and 1. Ironic, and shocking. ;)
Theo for SOTG if he doesn't foul out.
GO WARRIORS!!!!!
Might need to break out some lucky Sonoran Salsa today. Dunks, can ya help a brother?
-
WOWSEY for Pre SOTG
-
I’ll be bold Cheats Sotg
-
We can't lose to a bunch of people that think Wichita is a state.
-
Howard with a Xavier 2/18/2017 repeat, goes 9/12 from bolognaville
That's the only thing I can guarantee
-
Quiet in the chat

Quiet in the chat
Just logged in
-
So faar hauser isn't allowed to breath on a man, while Wichita might as well have brass knuckles.
-
Not a fan of ESPN's scoreboard. Tough to find the info quickly.
-
Hope they review both of those long twos. Thought Sacar was behind the line initially.
-
MM
-
Can someone post the chat link here. Trouble finding it on mobile
-
Bad call on Theo. He screens illegally alot but that was not a dirty one.
-
How much is it that Theo sets a physical screen so the refs assume it is illegal?
-
Bad call on Theo. He screens illegally alot but that was not a dirty one.
Agree
-
Did Hauser say something about the refs mom? Guy cant touch anyone.
-
3 on Sammy is going to hurt. Hopefully, Sacar or someone else can step up to the plate.
-
Damn Sam
-
Soft ass foul calls on Sam
-
Super fast 5 call I guess? :o
-
They've got their hands all over our dribblers.
-
Wish Howard could get an and one like they did on Hauser. lol.
-
great play by Markus.
Crap call against Theo.
-
Last year’s matador defense has returned.
-
Witchita state is really really good. Props to MU for hanging in so far.
Marcus is possessed!
-
Oh my Howard
-
This is a f'n joke. If they're going to call everything a foul then college basketball needs to go to 6 fouls.
-
Loving how GE is playing
-
Howard should have about 3 and ones that have gone uncalled.
-
We need Sam. These fouls are absurd. Calling the tacky fouls on Sam and then not calling hacks on the drives
-
They’re making calls on Theo that remind me of a frosh Matt. Looks clean to me.
-
BS!!!
-
Terrible call.
-
Another awful call.
-
Are you f'n kidding me with that charge call??
-
These calls are starting to get out of hand...
-
Jesus. Maui must really want ND vs. WSU.
-
Terrible call.
Rinse, repeat. >:(
-
what a complete flop on Hanie
-
Getting jobbed by these refs
-
Did espn tell the refs they really wanted a domer vs witchita final?
-
What dirt does Gregg have on the guys in stripes?
-
Goaltend??
-
Looked like a goaltend too. Ball definitely hit backboard.
-
They need to fix the charge, this is obnoxious.
-
We're winning this
-
Thank God that one refis coming with the makeup calls. Blatant missed travel under the hoop.
-
then Heldt barely touches a guy and he's hit with one.
-
Seriously does it get more ticky tack?
-
Wichita has gone to the UNC defense - fall for the call.
-
Cain almost brought the house down
-
Where was the trailer?
-
I'm going to lose my hair with these calls.
-
I'm going to lose my hair with these calls.
its ridiculous
-
One thing I’ll say watching this team this year; wojo has answered the question of whether he can coach defense
-
So many chances for MU to tie/take the lead and haven't capitalized. Hope that doesn't come back to haunt them.
-
Can't catch them because its all Rowsey on offense now, just shooting and missing.
Wow Sacar gets stuffed twice, great defense there by that WSU kid. Shame.
-
Jamal almost had a play that wouldve been on Sportscenter
-
Playing decent for having 2 of our best players on the bench, arguably the best all around player on the bench for basically the half.
Freshman have made some nice plays
-
Should be up 1. I'm encouraged. Cain, rowsey and Anim all had chances to get us ahead.
-
Kind of glad I'm only listening online. Seems unbelievably frustrating, but still only down 3!
Glad we are facing a physical team like this. Gotta thicken those necks early in the season!
-
Officiating in college basketball is fundamentally broken. It gets worse every year. Officials could call a foul on something literally every single possession so it's hard not to feel like you're getting f*cked when all the calls go against your team.
-
I know the results haven't been there so far for the most part, but the defense is light years better in terms of rotations and intensity.
And the defense is noticeably more disruptive with Sacar and Cain in there.
-
FT’s no matta
-
HEYO #THELEFTYTHING
-
Lol #Thething
-
ALL THE DEFENDERS ARE STRAIGHT UP AND YOU GO UP INTO 3 GUYS AND GET THE FOUL. R U SERIOUS
-
Going to be swell finishing this game with guys all under 6'6"
-
Cain getting some nice run. Haney doesn’t know what to do with the ball. Frustrating player sometimes
-
Geez, was that a late whistle on Theo.
-
You had to know sooner or later this Lineup was gonna kill MU :(
-
Wow these calls
-

Yup, high school and college. The freedom of movement rule has absolutely killed basketball on all level.
-
In the average amount of time it takes to write a post, 3 fouls get called against MU.
-
watch espn keeps cutting the feed. Driving me nuts.
-
Hope the walk ons are stretched out.
-
How’d they not call a foul on that Rowsey loose ball?
-
You had to know sooner or later this Lineup was gonna kill MU :(
It is not
-
Rowsey bad game so far
-
Terrible D heldt
-
Soooo, what did everyone have for lunch today?
Leftover pizza here.
-
Just when I thought worst case is we go in down 3, Rowsey walks.
Lucky to be down only 5 boys. If you'd have told me we'd have Sam o the bench for that long and Markus on the bench for a few at the end of the half and only be down 5, I'd have told you you were crazy.
-
How is Anin allowed to shoot? Doodsie said he was the most improved player in the summer. I don't see it.
-
Soooo, what did everyone have for lunch today?
Leftover pizza here.
Close. Left over lasagna.
-
Rowsey is trying to do too much, wojo will tell him something during half time
-
Kept it close with foul trouble, not bad. Howard was magnificent.
Too many layups by WSU and Rowsey hurt them with terrible shot and then a turnover in last minute. He needs to get it together big time to win this thing.
-

Turkey club croissant sandwich
-
Good play by Rowsey to not try for the late charge. Would've given up an and one.
-

I think it speaks to how bad he was last year.
-
one of the worst reffed halves I've seen. I don't go nuts if its a physical game, I don't go nuts if its a tacky tack game. I do however go nuts when one team is allowed to play physical and one team can't look at the player driving at them.
-
Rowsey is trying to do too much, wojo will tell him something during half time
what can he do when he is the only scorer on the floor with howard and Hauser on the bench?
-
Close. Left over lasagna.
Ha, that's what I'm whipping up this afternoon. Jus t ground uo a pork shoulder for the sausage.
-
FT’s no matta
Agreed. You can tell by the way Anim shoots them.
-
with Sam down with fouls and marcus sitting at the end we're still playing tough, I like our effort.
-
I’m fine where we are at considering no Sam and Markus siiting last 5 mins
-
what can he do when he is the only scorer on the floor with howard and Hauser on the bench?
Pass it to someone who's open. Would you rather have a wild, forced shot from Rowsey or an open shot from Cain or Cheatham?
-
Rowsey off...again. And massive foul trouble for us. Somehow down 5. That's crazy.
Could get ugly quick thanks to the fouls kinda like Purdue. But it's good to know we can really hang around with good teams.
-
Fun, yet frustrating first half. Rowsey was trying to do too much as the end, Sam needs to be able to keep his a$$ on the floor, a lot of dumb ticky tacky fouls, and too many missed assignments that lead to easy buckets. However, with all of that said, Sam will be fresh and we are only down 5 to a top 10 team. Not too bad!
-

Hey dunks

Cain and Elliott have both looked great in this game and tournament. I would much rather have them on the floor than Cheatham.

Agreed. And when is Wojo going to get off his lame ass and protest some of this crap?
-
leftover chinese, Chili
Massage to go with it?
-
I guess I don’t understand the Anim criticism. Playing hard. Defending well. Hit a shot.
Not going to be a star but he certainly hasn’t been terrible.
-
Only down 5 is a positive given the foul trouble...but MU also had plenty of chances late in the half and allowed WSU to score the last 4 points. Could have been a lot worse, but it also could have been better.
-
I guess I don’t understand the Anim criticism. Playing hard. Defending well. Hit a shot.

Valid point, but a bit frustrating when you consider all the chances MU had to take the lead with them on the bench and couldn't capitalize. It could/probably should be MU with the 5 point lead right now. But, I will take it.
-
Haanif has been fine.
Nope. Come on, Sultan. You know all that matters is...

+1 and getting steals
-
The lack of interior offense is going to plague this team all year. It’s like the opposite of Buzz’s E8 team.

Hoping Froling can help. If Theo can stop the moving screens, he can do damage.
-

Agree on Theo. If he can stay on the floor he can score on some put backs and drop off passes
-
Hoping Froling can help. If Theo can stop the moving screens, he can do damage.
watching replays i think the call the moving screens on him because he stands there with his arms in a chicken wing position and keeps clipping the defender.
-
Heldt is killing our interior D
-
nice to see a couple calls go our way this half.
-
Cheatam awful bricks has led to both buckets
-
Hey did someone tell the refs off?
-
cheatam....? bad start to second half
-
Good Rowsey coming now
-
looked like a walk against Matty. Good no call.
We got this.
-
Then he goes too high off the glass smh
Good take tho
-
Stop chucking shots!!
Take your time and we got this!!
-
Did anyone else just yell out loud like I did, "You don't have to try to do it all yourself?" when Rowsey just shot that?
-
Need sams offense to get going
-
Cheatam awful bricks has led to both buckets
No, Cheatham is really good....what more could you want from him on those shots?
-
Drew being a bit too aggressive right now. Look for the open man
-
Absolutely love the kid, but this is not one of Rowsey's best games decision wise.
-
2 good shots by Rowsey, just couldn't finish them.
-
we're playing good D
-
2 good shots by Rowsey, just couldn't finish them.
That turn around chuck was a good shot???
Please.
The other was a good look just rushed
-
Did anyone else just yell out loud like I did, "You don't have to try to do it all yourself?" when Rowsey just shot that?
? Both were high percentage open looks.
-
2 good shots by Rowsey, just couldn't finish them.
The first one was a good shot. The second was not, especially since he had Hauser was wide open on the wing.
-
MU is going to win this game. Al is going to be apart of that happening
-
The last thing this offense needs is a more passive Rowsey. He’s doing exactly what he should be
-
Our guys are not backing down . We just need to keep hanging in there.
-

I remember the same people saying the same things about Carlino...
-
Markus god!
-
Now Markus chucking
And leads to easy buckets
-
Get Sams offense going!
-
Just way to Out of control
-
Stop. With. The. Bs. Shots!
-
I have honestly never seen a team pay for bad shots as much as MU does...they take a bad shot, you just know the opponent is going to score on the other end.
Jamal CANNOT be taking shots like that.
-
Rowsey needs to unnatural carnal knowledgeing sit
This is embarrassing.
Leads to an easy bucket every time
-

I don't know. I'll take the three free throws he just made every time.
-
Lol #Thething
-
Missed last 7 shots, 5 from three after tying the game. Then Rowsey get the usual foul when shooting, give him credit on those. They needed it, cause WSU still getting too many layups and of course open three.
-
If Cain doesn't stop shooting three's...I don't care how f'n open he is...know your role kid!
-
I don't know. I'll take the three free throws he just made every time.
You good with the 4 straight misses right before that??
That brought the game to a 6 point deficit?
-
I’m so excited about what GE is going to become
-
If Cain doesn't stop shooting three's...I don't care how f'n open he is...know your role kid!
His role is to take those wide open 3s.
-

Heres a thought, how about you stfu?
-
Rough stretch for Howard and Rowsey there. Big 5 minutes. We're rushing, hopefully we calm down during the time out.
-
There are two drama queens in every game thread. The same two. Every game.
-
If Cain doesn't stop shooting three's...I don't care how f'n open he is...know your role kid!
Good to see you still know your personal role. Always bitchin bout stuff. Then when we win no praise from your sorry arse.
-
Heres a thought, how about you stfu?
Spoken like a child.
How's your butt buddy in his European hostels??
-
We need Howard’s drives. And we need Sam to bust out offensively
-
Purdue is ranked 18 and WSU 6?
-
If Cain doesn't stop shooting three's...I don't care how f'n open he is...know your role kid!
I’m sure if he was not supposed to he would not be back on tge floor
-

-

You mean on the Celtics roster? Doing pretty well, talked to him last week. Have a good day, go MU.
-
Well, that might do it. I think the offense will start clicking a bit more but I'm not confident we can string stops together.
-
Down 10 now since we went to chucking up wild 3s
But yeah, making accurate statements isn't allowed around the weak
-
Spoken like a child.
How's your butt buddy in his European hostels??
Dude, you're clueless in both basketball and insults. An embarrassment.
-
Ugh! Howard hurt?
-
Some on this board would still be pissed if we were losing to Duke, Kansas, Kentucky, etc. Some people are just impossible to please and are unable enjoy anything.
-

Being a constant prick doesn't help your thoughts.
You may say honest things sometimes. But when you're a dick 100% of the time, everything you say comes off like an angry middle schooler bro.
-

Most of the last 3's were open looks. That is our game

Say a guy needs to sit after chucking 4 straight shots isn't being a "dick"
"Bro"
-
Howard and Rowsey have combined for 29 FGA and 2 assists. Hauser has only taken 3 shots. It's tough to have success like that.
-
Finally get to a bar to watch second half and they're playing Christmas music.
-
Most of the last 3's were open looks. That is our game
For Cain and Hauser they were.
Markus and Rowsey rushed shots until Rowsey hit the nice curl
-
Say a guy needs to sit after chucking 4 straight shots isn't being a "dick"

You're right. I agree dawg. But when you're negative about EVERYTHING. Then it does come off negative. That's all I'm saying "sista"
-
I remember the same people saying the same things about Carlino...
And Reinhardt (including me)... glad Katin did not stop shooting last year!
-
When you repeatedly take bad shots, you end up with this...I don't get it, they looked fine the first 5 minutes or so of the 1st half.
-
See. Drive the ball.
We make our 2s when we actually take the ball to the hoop
-
Spoken like a child.
How's your butt buddy in his European hostels??
Didn't you make another homophobic comment a week or so ago?
-
Now Markus going
-
So damn frustrating, this was there for the taking, if they'd have just played smarter..
-
Down 10 now since we went to chucking up wild 3s

You’re in constant whiny panic mode. That’s why you take so much sh*t
-
Didn't you make another homophobic comment a week or so ago?
That isn't homophobic
-
When MU plays top 20 teams*, they have very little margin for error. They can't force shots or miss too many open ones. Today they've done both.
Still time to right to ship but it won't be easy.
* - Despite their ranking, Wichita State is NOT the 6th-best team in the country.

There are only 2 guys who can score and you want to bench one of them.

Correct. Negative analysis is allowed. But don't be surprised when people critize your constant negativity.
How the hell did that 33 kid bury that 3? Gees. We need stops and they are just hitting 3's with people in their faces.

And people shouldn't be surprised if I point out bad play.
But it breaks them every damn time
It's enjoyable.
I find it that this board has so many actual trolls trying to troll. All I have to do is give legit criticisms and it has the same effect.
It's funny
*now someone will call this a troll

Shots just aren’t falling. Playing their asses off though

I think it's obvious Wojo should release Markus from his scholarship....right now, during the game.
-
I don’t think you’re very self-aware
Extremely self aware.
Btw that was another poor shot by Rowsey for anyone who wants to get mad again
-
I’d rather see Rowsey “chuck” than drive. He is too diminuative.
-
Extremely self aware.
Btw that was another poor shot by Rowsey for anyone who wants to get mad again
It was. But the previous one by Hauser that you criticized was a very good shot. And you want us to drive but we've gotten blocked at the 2 of the past 3 times that we did
-
Need to dump it down low if the 3's are not going to drop
-
We got this
-
Need to dump it down low if the 3's are not going to drop
To who?
-
Heldt making 2 free throws off a 1 and 1 was nice
-
This is the kind of game we’d have to hit tough shots to win. Not only are we not hitting those thisnhalf but we’re missing good looks. Love the effort regardless. This is a really likable team
-
Shots just aren’t falling. Playing their asses off though
Looks like legs are gone.
-
It was. But the previous one by Hauser that you criticized was a very good shot. And you want us to drive but we've gotten blocked at the 2 of the past 3 times that we did
Doesn't have to drive all the way to the rim. Just hit the middle. Like that Rowsey shot.
Or his 2 floaters.
-
Looks like legs are gone.
Hope not, we got 1 more tomorrow
-
Also that Cheatam up and under was not what I had in mind
-
WSU way too many layups, and everytime MU has a layup, they are stuffed. Tough......
-
Cheatham is horrific on offense.
-
If we hit half our open threes we win this with relative ease. Disappointing, especially since it likely means no ND matchup.
-
For getting hosed on a bunch of calls in the first half, we stuck with them pretty long. Eventually, the Shockers were too big, too strong and too good today.
Let's get em tomorrow boys. Go Warriors.
-
Got away at the end but plenty of bright spots today. This is a fun team
-
To who?
Ugh. Valid point? Maybe put hauser down there?
I got nothing. Game over at this point but color me surprised, if we had made a few more open looks we would be in it.
Sadly this will end looking like a blow out.
-
Once it was 45 all, and MU took some bad shots to lead to Wichita points, you knew it was over then. It's too bad, all the missed shots or not, had MU just taken better shots during that stretch, they may have won this game. :(
-
Great effort by the guys, WSU is just flat out better at mostly every position. At least it was competitive.
-

What are the bright spots?

Agreed. They had more weapons. We have only have 3 strong ones, and got nothing out of Hauser. Put up a good fight though.
-

We were still in it well after that. We just couldn’t get open shots to fall
-
Cue all the negative threads to be created after losing to a top 10 team
-
We will beat LSU tomorrow
-
Marquette's defense is awful and that fact stands out even more when 1) they play a good team and 2) MU's offense sputters.
No shame in losing to a strong, veteran team. Gotta get back at it tomorrow.
-
What are the bright spots?
If you don’t see any then you don’t see any.
-
If we hit half our open threes we win this with relative ease. Disappointing, especially since it likely means no ND matchup.
Since they have already lost one now, I'd rather have the easier game and a realistic shot at a W. Remember, too many losses at season's end isn't good either.
-
What are the bright spots?
We didn't no get clocked by a top 10 team is a bright spot.
If team gets smart let with shots we will win some big games
-

Really didn't think the defense was that bad today.
WSU hit 80 late when it was over.
And a lot of their offense came from
Bad shots.
We got a lot of stops for a while there
-
We will beat LSU tomorrow
Was I harsh to you earlier? Yes. Was it warranted? Kinda.
Do I apologize. Yes. Sorry dude. Negativity all the time kills me...
Do I like this post by you? F YES I DO.

Not sure what this says but it's probably negative.....just sayin'
-
Rowsey and Howard are clearly MU's best scoring options but when they combine to take two-thirds of the team's shots and only account for 3 assists, MU isn't going to win.
-
Since they have already lost one now, I'd rather have the easier game and a realistic shot at a W. Remember, too many losses at season's end isn't good either.
Not how it works that was way back when I was in college.
-
To who?
Hop in the time machine and dump it to Froling after first semester finals. Duh
-
How can you win when only two little guys are working their arses off and nobody else can score?
-
We played much better on defense against a big strong team.
Won't win many games when the rest of the team makes a total of 5baskets while shooting under 25%

Sam’s foul trouble really took him out of the flow offensively. That’s what was missing most today

This we missed too many open looks
-
Really didn't think the defense was that bad today.
WSU hit 80 late when it was over.
And a lot of their offense came from
Bad shots.
We got a lot of stops for a while there
When an opponent shoots 54% from the floor and scores 40 points in the paint, it's hard to give the D much credit.

Poster said "what bright spots"
I said a bright spot was that a top 10 team didn't clock(another word for destroy) us. And that when we take better shots we will be able to win a lot of these games.
-
What are the bright spots?
Ran with a top 10 team for most of the game dispute foul trouble and shots not falling?
-
If you don’t see any then you don’t see any.
Not trying to be an ass, just curious about the specific bright spots.

Honestly this team has grit that I haven’t seen from any wojo team yet. Defensively we’re way ahead of wojos previous teams. We have two legit, dynamic scorers. We have freshman that are contributing, but more importantly have high ceilings. And we had our chances to win this game but for our shots not falling.
I just like this team. And I’m the first to admit I haven’t enjoyed watching any of wojos previous teams

Exactly, Rowsey played like a ball hog today, has to realize he is 5'10" and every shot is not a great shot. One thing Wojo has to do is sit him a little as he got tired
in the second half, so did Howard. Missed a lot of shots. When Sam does not come to play they will be in trouble every game. Cain has to hit open easy shots and curious does Elliott have any offensive game? Love his athleticism but need something on the offensive in. Plus the offense is so guard oriented, need some scoring
out of the center position. I am really interested to see how he uses Froling in the middle. Supposedly, he can pick and pop, but not sure this offense is for him. WSU
is good and deep. I bet Willis would be starting for MU, he made a big mistake not coming to MU.

Merritt, normally I would agree, but considering their overwhelming strength and experience, I thought we played well for the most part on D despite some breakdowns.

Three guys on MU can score. We don't have much room for balance when the options are limited. It is a shame we don't have an offensive presence down low. Maybe Harry can drop a few for us when he gets eligible.
-

I agree. I think the stats got skewed late when it was clear we ran out of gas. They started getting to the paint at will the same time our shots stopped falling. That’s no coincidence

Freshman have some talent, but need to bring something to the offensive end. Theo will not bring much this year, maybe never. The other 2 have to start.

The other 2 have to start.
In place of whom? Haanif, maybe (but I disagree) but which other starter should be replaced?

Thanks for deciphering what you typed. I honestly couldn't figure it out.
-

OK.
-
We can already see what kind of teams will hurt us.
Big, strong, experienced.
None of us should be surprised by that. Good news is we will have size next year. Size that can score and board.
-
Agreed. And when is Wojo going to get off his lame ass and protest some of this crap?
I was there. He was red in the face from yelling at the refs all game. Guy in their faces multiple times. Surprised he didn't get Ted

The 2nd foul on Howard was egregious.

I'm having a hard time understanding what is exactly a foul these days.

Similar to the catch rules in the NFL, I don't think it's completely clear to the officials either.

Fair enough. I guess I just didn't see anything today to dispel my concerns for this team.

Agree, 3 frosh and 4 sophs. I think Sacar is a little better than Hanii in at least Sacar has a shot at finishing his layup whereas Hanii seems to seldom get the ball above the rim. Let the sophs and frosh play and get the experience. With Morrow and Joey next season we should have some scoring inside.
-
Looking forward to watching Cain develop. The program hasn't had a guy with his length and hops since Jamil Wilson graduated.
-

So are the refs.
-
For a guy that was supposed to be really good, there sure are a lot of comments along the lines of "Sam never found his rhythm" or "Sam was taken out of his game with fouls" or "Sam never got into the flow."
Maybe Sam Hauser just isn't going to be that good. His ceiling looks to be an average college basketball player. There's nothing wrong with that. He's OK offensively and very weak on defense.
-
HC clearly has no confidence in going to the basket with his right hand. He tried that goofy up and under today when going strong with the right probably would have gotten him to the foul line. Yesterday on an open right side layup he switched to his left hand at last minute. Good defense but can't understand the mental block over using his right hand. Should have fixed it over the past 2 summers.

I know you are just trolling but in case anyone is wondering, of all returning Big East players, only two ranked in the top 5 for both eFG% and dPPP. One was Jalen Brunson, the other was Sam. The idea that Sam is a poor defender is one of the craziest myths that sometimes gets posted on this board

This is at least the 2nd if not 3rd attempt at trolling Sam Hauser after the game today. If you would have watched the game yesterday, you would have seen a complete all around player......and he’s a sophomore.
He had some quick fouls that threw him off today, so in your mind that equates to a sub par player who will never be better than mediocre.

We hope you enjoyed watching your first ever Marquette basketball game today enough to catch another one at some point.

Exactly. He was at wits end. At one point the ref followed him into the huddle. Such an uneven called game on both sides and both halves.
You say hi to Gar Forman at half?

True +2 he could end up being trouble down low at both ends.

After criticizing the defense last week, I'm encouraged by Maui. Yes, we got taken to the woodshed the last 10 minutes by a bigger, stronger, more experienced team, but we also kept it close as long as the threes were falling.
So we know our kryptonite. It's big, strong, experienced teams. That's a problem for a lot of teams. It's also not what we'll see on a nightly basis. We don't play anyone else on the schedule that is top-100 in both experience and size, per Pomeroy.
We should look better against LSU and I'd put the over/under at wins needed for a tourney berth at 18.5. That's attainable. I do think we'll ultimately see improved defensive efficiency this year. With our shooting, that'll win us some games we shouldn't. On another night, the shots fall, we win that game. If we played Wichita Monday in the opener, I think we would've won that game.
Win today and that's a great Maui trip.
