Game! Of! The! Night! Dec 20: Miami (Oh.) at Wichita State
December 20, 2005 8:52 am ET by Kyle Whelliston
Tonight we have a matchup of two good teams (both went NIT last year) with lots of question marks heading into conference play. First of all, there's the 8-2 start of Wichita State, which has been largely overshadowed by Missouri Valley neighbors Indiana State (7-0) and preseason drool-towel Northern Iowa. The Shockers came within a point of defeating Illinois last month, and they played Michigan State pretty evenly except for that whole thing with the Spartans shooting 59%. OK, so the FG defense needs work.

Then there's Miami of Ohio (4-2, 1-0), who figure to contend in the tooth-and-nail MAC East but haven't had a signature game since trouncing Dayton during Feast Week. The Redhawks and surging sophomore Tim Pollitz (13.8 ppg, 5.0 rpg) have had nine days to absorb their grinddown at the hands of Xavier. Tune in as the Shox and Hawks attempt to find answers at each other's expense.
