ESPN releases predictions for AAC men’s basketball

Wichita State sophomore Dexter Dennis attempts a three-pointer before the final buzzer over junior Trey Wade on Saturday during the Black and Yellow Scrimmage inside Charles Koch Arena. Wade ended up blocking the shot, securing a win for the Yellow Team.

ESPN released their college basketball preseason picks last week, including those for the American Athletic Conference.

Wichita State, who finished last season on a 14-4 spurt, was picked as the consensual fourth place finisher in the conference just like the official AAC preseason poll that was released on Monday. Out of three ESPN analysts, the Shockers received one third place tally from John Gasaway, a fourth place finish from Myron Medcalf, and a sixth place vote from Jeff Borzello.
