First test of the season. We're playing a tournament team here, and one that honestly could be in the top 25 at one point this season. It's going to be a good test to see just how we stack up. Honestly, I hate to be a downer, but I just don't see us getting it done. I think Wichita State out-executes us and keeps a steady 10 point lead throughout that we can never quite get over. Here's hoping I'm wrong.

Not sure if this is fully reliable, however an ESPN poster that claims to have a connection into the program is saying that Nate did not travel with the team due to missing a team meeting. Not sure if any of you can look into that but that definitely hurts our 3pt shot. While Nate isn't extremely consistent, he is the best guy we have outside the arc.

It was probably tini.
 
So tini posts in Barzil to try come off as some secret insider but posts the same sh!t on a public board like ESPN?
 
Tini's doucheyness knows no bounds. That dude needs to meet [strike]some[/strike] A girl[strike]s[/strike].

lookin at the dudes profile, makes sense. Follows Bama, Michigan, FSU, and CU. Sounds like a tini list.

Pretty cute that each of tini's favorite team is in a different BCS conference to try cover his bases. He forgot Missouri from the BigXII tho.

Anyways, back on topic. GO BUFFS!!

is this for real? That is so funny, and honestly sad.

I loved the buffs college, but I definitely spent less than 5% of my energy on football/sports, 15% on school and 80% on chicks and partying. I think tinis got it flipped

Sorry have a midterm today and procrastinated on the ESPN boards. Wednesday isn't exactly a party day, even less when you have to study and are sick.

It must be difficult to be the parent of a Shocker fan.
