Great win Shox. Keep it up. Lot's of talent on that team and fun to watch. The talent in this league is getting better for sure.

From the Las Vegas Sun:

The Shockers (5-2), and the raucous home crowd at Koch Arena, started the game full of energy and the 18th-ranked Rebels (8-1) simply couldn’t keep up.

After going toe-to-toe in the opening minutes, the Rebels fell silent — going nearly a full eight minutes without a made basket — while the Shockers, and specifically guard Joe Ragland, got loud. Ragland hit two three-pointers during the stretch and another just seconds after Justin Hawkins finally ended UNLV’s drought.

Ragland was a perfect 5-for-5 from three-point range at halftime and finished with a game- and career-high 31 points, including eight three-pointers.

“They got anything and everything they wanted,” Rice said.

“It’s hard getting a run going against these guys just because they play so slow,” Moser said. “Free throws, fouls, just slowing the game down. … Everything just went so slow.”

Ha, Ha. slow?
A 90 point can of whoop-a$$. Slow?

That's a Jamaal Tatum handcheck.

This one really shocked me. The best performance I have seen from WSU in a big game in quite awhile. This just might get WSU over the hump to becoming one of the very elite mid-majors. Congatulations, and thank goodness I didn't bet UNLV.

Great win Shocks!
