KEY GAME INFORMATION
WICHITA ST: Wichita State lived up to its nickname last season, shocking the college basketball world with a run to the Final Four where it almost knocked off eventual champion Louisville in a 72-68 defeat. The most important player for this team will be PF Cleanthony Early (13.9 PPG, 5.4 RPG), who made his name well known in the NCAA Tournament, including a 24-point, 10-rebound effort against the Cardinals. While his three-point shooting must become more consistent (31.8%), he is a dangerous threat wherever he gets the ball. The team's next two leading scorers from last season'Carl Hall and Malcolm Armstead'are gone, leaving Early as the only double-figure scorer remaining. PG Fred VanVleet (4.3 PPG, 2.3 APG, 41% 3-pt FG) will replace Armstead at the point, and has the capabilities to do an excellent job as a former top recruit. Also on the wing, SG Tekele Cotton (6.5 PPG, 3.9 RPG) will play important minutes and be a key cog for this defense. As will SF Ron Baker (8.7 PPG, 3.2 RPG, 36% 3-pt FG), who missed more than half of last season with a foot injury before returning for their late run. It may take some adjusting, but this team has the capability to stay ranked all season, and get through the first weekend in the NCAA Tournament.
PREVIEW
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ PA SPORTSTICKER COLLEGE BASKETBALL PREVIEW (LOYOLA CHI-WICHITA ST) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

*Loyola of Chicago-Wichita St. Preview* =======================================

Loyola Chicago (8-12) at Wichita State (21-0), 8:00 p.m. EDT

(AP) - Wichita State's Ron Baker has grown accustomed to looking up in the stands during a pregame shootaround, peering from one section to the next, and seeing very few empty seats.

Not just when the Shockers are at home, either.

After another lopsided road win, the fourth-ranked Shockers return to Wichita to face Loyola of Chicago on Tuesday night.

Wichita State (21-0, 8-0 Missouri Valley Conference) cruised to a 78-61 win at Drake on Saturday in front of another packed house.

"This is the third game in a row where people have said that," Baker replied, when asked about drawing Drake's best crowd of the year. "We're starting to get used to it."

All those fans are getting used to watching Wichita State win, too.

Along with top-ranked Arizona and No. 2 Syracuse, the Shockers are among three unbeaten teams left in men's Division I basketball. Considering the weakened state of the Missouri Valley Conference and the schedule it still has left, there's a good chance Wichita State will become the first team to enter the NCAA tournament with an unblemished record since UNLV in 1991.

"These are really fine young people that we're dealing with," coach Gregg Marshall said. "They deserve all the credit and the accolades they're receiving. They work extremely hard. They represent our university in a first-class way and they just continue to get better."

That's a scary thought for the rest of the nation.

Wichita State burst onto the national scene last season, when it knocked off top-ranked Gonzaga and Ohio State en route to its first Final Four since 1965. It took mighty Louisville, the overall No. 1 seed and eventual champion, to finally send the Shockers home.

The Shockers lost a couple of key players from that team, including blood-and-guts leader Carl Hall and fiery point guard Malcolm Armstead, but the rest of their major contributors are back.

Fred VanVleet, who was just a freshman a year ago, has emerged as one of the nation's premier point guards. Cleanthony Early, a breakout star of the Final Four, recently joined him on the Oscar Robertson watch list, while also making the Wooden Award's midseason list.

Then there are the rest of the guys - Baker, Tekele Cotton, Darius Carter and a host of others - who have proven that it doesn't take five stars next to your name, or being anointed the next big thing while still in high school to win games on the college stage.

"We can't walk out there and just impose our will because we've the best coach and the biggest and best players, and five-star guys, one-and-done guys," Marshall said. "We don't have that. We've got guys that are good because they really work and they're team-oriented and they care about each other and they're committed and they're strong-minded and they're just tough."

Quite possibly tough enough to run the table.

The closest the Shockers have come to losing was at Missouri State, when they had to rally from 19 down to force overtime. They wound up winning 72-69.

Otherwise, it's been mostly 20-point blowouts in Missouri Valley play. You have to go back to a 72-67 win at Alabama on Dec. 17 to find one of their four games decided by 10 points or fewer.

One of those came against Saint Louis, about the closest thing that Wichita State has to a marquee victory. The Billikens weren't ranked when the Shockers beat them on the road Dec. 1, but they haven't lost since and have climbed to No. 19 in the latest Top 25.

The Shockers' soft schedule has provided plenty of fodder for critics. Of their 10 remaining regular-season games, only three are against teams with winning records.

"We play the schedule that we got," Marshall said, "and so far we've played it pretty well."

The Ramblers (8-12, 3-5) are next up and they shouldn't provide much of a challenge.

They beat Northern Iowa 93-87 in overtime Saturday but are 0-8 on the road.

Freshman Milton Doyle, who averages a team-best 16.0 points, has been in the middle of the road woes. He's averaging 9.8 points on 33.3 percent shooting in his last four away from Chicago.

Wichita State leads the series 18-9 with the last meeting coming in 1989.
