Wichita State 69
SIU 68
Final
Took too long to get in bounds. That play was set up to fail.
Nice shot at the end. Close one. Good performance. MVC is all that matters moving forward in the win and loss column. Let’s rebound.
Good effort. If we hadn't shot so poorly 1s half, we win that game.
Damn
Bigs played well. X was X.
Had some really bad possessions. One at the end of the half, and the last play of the game. Took too long to get the pass in play.
Unforced turnovers more than the difference in this one. Good effort Dawgs. Hoping for a pre conference return for AJ.
The advancement and diffusion of knowledge is the only guardian of true liberty.
James Madison
If the bigs play like that and Ferguson gets healthy and plays well, Southern is going to win some ballgames. Need to find a way to get more disruptive defensively and force a few more turnovers.
But that was a helluva second half effort. Wichita had just enough answers late. Hate to fall short, especially to them, but something that can be built on.
Way better than expected.
This, along with the close game against #20 James Madison, makes that shyte the other night even more aggravating and puzzling.
Hoping that we've learned some things from decent opponents.
Hoping Mullins has learned that Ebube is valuable.
Ugh. Don't get me started . . .

Great second half. Sucks to come up short like that.

Does seem like our offense moves the ball better this year and utilizes Rupert (and occasionally Ebube) better. Would like to see more Ebube...except at the FT line.
On nights we shoot well, play D, and have energy, we will win games in the MVC. Sure be nice if we could give X more rest.
Contrary to Spike's opinion, Hensley will help us. I think he'll get more minutes going forward.
Well, not gonna lie, losing sucks. However, after last game and our performance at Indiana State, i was fully expecting to get blown out by 15+ tonight, so im actually pretty pleased with this performance. Obviously, would have loved to beat the shockers, but on the whole, im happy with the effort given tonight.
