Wichita State is a quality win.
Maybe-didn't their best player miss most of this game?
Wasn't Tennessee missing Maymon?
Maymon is out, probably for the entire season. I watched a good bit of that game. Wichita State was ranked #23 in the AP Poll and undefeated when UT beat them, so it is a quality win. However watching them, Wichita State didn't look all too impressive. That being said, UT does play some great defense. They don't turn you over or get steals, but they do play great team defense for 35 seconds. However they possess very little offense. Double Stokes down low, and nobody else can create their own shot, other than sometimes Golden who can drive the lane and draw contact. We must be prepared to battle on offense, run when we have the chance, and play solid defense without fouling. If we keep them off the free throw line, then we shouldn't have a problem outscoring them, even if we only score in the 60s.

Maymon is overrated anyway.

By the way, Skylar McBee is underrated.
