Wichita State Shockers
Wichita State’s season continues taking twists and turns.
It began superbly with a strong non-conference showing and a 3–0 start in the American Athletic Conference.

Then the Shockers lost a game at Temple, which would have been innocuous enough had they not compounded it by losing a home game it wasn’t ready to play the next time out against Houston.
But Head Coach Gregg Marshall’s team steadied with two wins in a row against South and Central Florida, which are two of the weaker teams in the league (one was on the road, however).
But WSU has dropped each of its two games since then (by a total of four points) at Tulsa and vs Cincinnati at home. The Shockers have lost four of their last six and were favorites in all six.
Now they are staring at a three-game losing streak if they can’t win a game, in which they will be underdogs for just the third time all season (WSU lost to West Virginia as a +1 dog on a neutral floor and blew out Oklahoma State as +3.5 dogs in Stillwater).
Houston Cougars
Houston and Cincinnati are atop the AAC at 8–2; surprise Tulsa is challenging at 7–2; Memphis is there at 6–3 and Wichita State needs this game badly to tighten things up; the Shockers are 5–4.
By the metics, Houston, Cincinnati, Memphis and Wichita State are the four Tournament teams in the league, though. All four teams are within two points of each other, according to Sports-Reference’s Simple Rating System (SRS).
So while the public may recognize Houston as the favorite against a fading underdog, this handicapper has Houston on upset alert.
It’s a gritty bunch in black and gold and Marshall will refuse to let his team quit. The Shockers can seal the perimeter, which is where most of Houston’s scoring talent plays.
Then there’s the revenge at stake. It’s best served cold and it’s what Wichita State does when others start counting it out.
