That's a sign of a pretty decent team, when you can lose good players, and still win on the road at a tough place to win. Might be the deepest Aces team in the last ten years.


You beat Austin Peay. Their best win to date was versus Delaware by 1. They are 4-7 with wins over powerhouses like Spalding, North. Kentucky and Oakland City...tame your excitement...you UE fans are ridiculous

So your boy retire12 throws out his little trolling dart and I respond back, and you're quoting me because?

You try to act fair and balanced but you clearly ignore the real instigators here if they're redbird fans. And obviously have it out for me. Sad.

I think winning on the road with 5 players out via injury/redshirt is still a god win, regardless if it's a Top 100 win or a win against a middle of the road OVC team. I hope the Redbirds beat St Joes tomorrow.

What exactly is winning on the road against a bad team good for? Giving yourself a pat on the back?

Maybe a better question would be, why are you playing a bad team on the road?

I will accept "We're striving for mediocrity" as an answer.

I thought it was a rather neutral statement. Not instigating anything by him, just a general statement. Clearly these Evansville posts have made it interesting.

Considering his posting history, I think not.

Looks like I was correct!

There was no trolling being done in that comment at all. Was simply noting that with the banter between Evansville fans and Wichita ones lately, I wondered how the tone of the posters from said schools would change.

It's not often someone comes into Wichita and thoroughly beats down the Shockers. Might be a while before we see that again. That type of outcome tends to set people on edge.

Case in point.

Relax, Championz, you're still the kings of the Valley. Everyone's due for an off night, right?

IMO WSU is still the best team in the Valley this year. But they have been fairly inconsistent. They really looked terrible last night. I'm not so sure the Shox run away with the Valley title this year?

To me this is really a down year for the entire conference. Pretty sure we are a one bid league but it will be an interesting year.

And you had be believing that Panther and Shocker fans were the big bad bully and Aces fans were innocent victims...Well what you said was true. Sometimes when people make true statements that we don't want to own it stings a little.
