I'm not sure if you guys like it when I post highlights and stuff like this but I'm gonna do it when I see them until you tell me to stop. I freaking love watching these guys in the pros.
in the updated AP Poll. Seems like a harsh drop but I can’t really argue it when you get blown out at home to an unranked team.
Iowa State is on the edge of going from potential Big 12 champion favorites to unranked in a span of 1 week.
This is going to be a very crucial 2 weeks for Iowa State. Our next 3 games are against teams that we are 0-3 against with the 4th coming against a team that we also struggled with.
@ KSU
Baylor
@ TCU
@ Texas.
Coming off a tough home loss, I’ll be pretty happy with 2-2 in the next 4. If we manage to only get 1 win, we’ll find ourselves in a situation where we’ve only 1 out of our last 5 games.
We are way too talented to have a big losing streak so hopefully the guys bounce back quickly.
Broderson will be wrestling Friday & Saturday after having 2 first period pins at Districts.
Aden Reeves had surgery & will not compete at State.
I think we got the top 2 senior recruits out of Iowa.
Not sure when Nebraska has their stat tournament
The big dual of the weekend saw two upsets itself, in the first two weights of the match with Roman Bravo-Young starting things out at 133 and defeating #7 Luke Pletcher in TB-2.
At the very next weight, #4 Nick Lee beat #2 Joey McKenna 7-6, which is the exact same score from their meeting last season.
The major upset over the weekend, though in my opinion, was Daniel Lewis pinning returning National Champion Zahid Valencia.
This team heavily relies on shooting, which isn’t always going to work. We get in these scoring droughts, and we let our opponents get on huge runs.
In the Arizona game, we scored two points in a time span of six minutes and eleven seconds.
In the Iowa game, we didn’t score a point in a time span of four minutes and forty-seven seconds.
In the Baylor game, we didn’t score a point in two minutes and fifty-seven seconds.
In the KSU game, we scored two points in the last five minutes.
In the KU game, we didn’t score a point in a time span of five minutes and fifteen seconds.
In the TCU game, we scored four points in a time span of eight minutes and thirty-four seconds.
All of our losses can be traced back to scoring droughts. We just need to move the ball around so we can get better shot opportunities.
