enCYCLONEpedia: More than a bitter end

I’m a bad fan. I have a fairly extensive library of old Iowa State basketball (and football) games that I crack into during the doldrums of the off-season or if I need a pick me up or something to kill time while on the treadmill. The 1986 NCAA Tournament game against Michigan is a favorite, …

enCYCLONEpedia NCAA Tournament preview: Iowa State vs UAB

Timing is everything but unfortunately for me, my timing is usually anything but fortuitous. Just a week ago I had thoughts of horseshoes, hand grenades, and – well – Lubbock. The 2012-13 Iowa State Cyclone basketball team was really good and they finished 11-7 in league play, though that season was probably the most likely …

enCYCLONEpedia: Iowa State at TCU preview

Somehow, the end of the regular season is here. It is March, and that means the stakes are raised and the consequences have escalated. Yeah, this game isn’t a part of a single elimination tournament and while this team isn’t going to win the regular season title they aspired for, if they don’t want to …

enCYCLONEpedia: Iowa State vs Oklahoma preview

A week ago when we talked about how quickly things can change, it was centered around the perception of Iowa State’s ability as a road team and the sudden window for opportunity to take the Big 12 crown after Kansas lost at Kansas State. This week, it’s an entirely different angle. Two straight gut punch …

Welcome to another edition of my basketball blabberings where I incoherently stumble through a variety of small topics that have been bouncing around in my head for the past few days. None of these things are really worthy of a few hundred words on their own, so I’ll keep them short and sweet. McKay and …

enCYCLONEpedia: Iowa State at Texas preview

The Texas Longhorns have been the disappointment of the Big 12 this season. Loaded with elite talent and expectations to match, they have stumbled to a 6-7 record in the Big 12 after an 11-2 start where many games were played without Isaiah Taylor. The Cyclones on the other hand have been chasing a conference …

enCYCLONEpedia: Iowa State at Oklahoma State preview

We’re hitting the closing stretch of the regular season (crazy!) and Iowa State still almost has but a glimmer of hope to earn a share of a conference title. The Cyclones are a game behind Kansas in the loss column and four of their last six games are on the road. If you haven’t heard, …

enCYCLONEpedia: Home vs. road stat splits

We’re now a good chunk of the way into the conference season and tendencies are pretty well pronounced for most teams. But questions start to arise in a lot of areas in terms of the differences in how teams play at home and on the road. I try to keep an eye on this every …
