The Bobcat Nation

Game is on the Pac12 Network and a couple other platforms... Hopefully they can pull it off. Does anyone know who is hurt for the 'Cats? I didn't get to watch their last game. GO CATS!

just subscribed for a week free trial to fubo so i could watch this game. Come on Cats! Hope players are not hurt and ready for an upset! Side note, will be interesting to see how Isaac Bonton is playing now there perhaps as a senior?

They just announced Bonton is out this game... lol 2020... thigh injury i guess.

We have had a couple nice easy looks but the shots aren’t falling. Looks like a little nerves.

yeah, WSU hasnt seen too much of a force, but we are not getting any rhythm or flow... or shots made. 15-4 we need to get going here.

WSU is shooting almost 70% right now. They are throwing up shots without even looking at the basket and they are falling. In the meantime, we are shooting less than 20%. Can’t make a 7 foot jumper right now.

Some of these no calls are outrageous. Bishop looked like he was hit by a linebacker and there was no call.

Really crapping the bed in this one.

Hope we can dig out of this hole.

Lol.
For reference, this WSU team beat Idaho by just 3 points, beat Texas Southern by just 4, beat Eastern Washington by just 3, and beat Portland State by 9. And you guys are down 25....at half? For all that ****** you’ve been talking cataholic no excuses for this one. If Idaho can keep em within 3, I’d sure as hell hope you wouldn’t lose by 30. And they don’t even have Bonton. Your defense looks like a high school team.

Seriously dude? We have been trying to talk basketball but you keep talking trash. Take it to the smack talk if you want to talk trash. Troll.

Cant win many when you shoot 26%. However, we have a good team that will do some damage in the Big Sky. Just ran into a better opponent tonight that was hot and we were not. We moved the ball well but just couldn’t get the shots to fall. Patterson is a true shooter. Bishop is a slasher who will get his assists and points. Belo is solid. We actually can go a couple deep on the bench as well. Fouls weren’t the difference tonight, but lots of tough no calls. Adamu was assaulted under the rim once with no call and you could see our coaches with their hands up in disbelief. Wazzu is getting Top 25 votes but our guys didn’t back down. I like this team and am looking forward to a good season.

WSU, a team that beat an Idaho team that just lost to Utah by 40, by just 3 points is receiving top 25 votes? That’s some funny ****** right there

That’s what the PAC 12 network broadcasters said tonight. I guess we will see.

Were they experimenting with a new rule where there were no three-second lane violations? WSUs oak tree, #23, not long after he came into the game, spent nearly the entirety of a possession simply shuffling around a little right in the middle of the lane. It wasn’t the only time. Belo seemed to catch on and did a bit of camping himself. Looked like a call-your-own where no one was calling anything.

Watched the whole game and after starting so cold we went into a desperation shot scenario. Lots of bad shots with someone trying to find there stroke. Wasn't to be, they have the ability but no one ever gained any confidence. Reminded me of the Eastern game I attended last year in Cheney, we start panic shooting and the discipline goes out the door.

That was a very embarrassing loss. Let’s call if what it is. I thought we would have a legit shot to beat them, and so did the experts as WSU was only favored by 5. We absolutely crapped the bed and looked bad doing it. That WSU barely beat 3 other big sky teams so I must admit I’m a bit worried with what I just saw. Hope sprinkle and staff can right the ship.

Sprinkle said he was going to work them pretty hard the week before....maybe they had shakey legs....you know...that Bobcat disease shakey legs!

I actually thought the same thing. I was at the Eastern game last year as well.
