3 keys for WSU to tame Memphis on Thursday

Wichita State's Grant Sherfield moves past Ole Miss defenders for a basket during the game on Saturday inside Charles Koch Arena.

Thursday night’s game against Memphis might be the most anticipated and important game of the Shockers’ season to date. With WSU hoping to improve on their resume prior to Selection Sunday, a win against the AAC preseason favorite could go a long way for WSU.

This is a crucial game for both sides though, as neither team has picked up a win against a current Top-25 team in the AP poll so far. This will be a Quadrant I contest for both sides, and the winner will move to 3-1 in such games this season.
