*** Official #2 IOWA STATE vs Kansas Game(Day) Thread ***

[3zuzofnazareth]

This team is losing in the first round. Always **** the bed when there is any expectations

 

[BigLame]

This experienced of a team should not lack focus this much for any game, let alone a matchup against KU in AFH

 

[awd4cy]

It was this time last year when we went to Morgantown and lost and the season went to **** after that. I’m hoping this isn’t a repeat of last year.

Last years team got punched in the mouth and would fold. Afraid of that happening Saturday.

 

[Malone]

Defense has been bad but this is very much an offense problem and has been for a month.

 

[CentexCyclone]

We are going to need a little more than Jefferson iso plays.

 

[Raiders70]

Hope this doesn't start a downward spiral like last year. The lack of effort is puzzling. Did they really think they could just show up and beat KU at Allen Fieldhouse?

 

[helechopper]

Thank you lord for ending this half.

 

[cycloneworld]

The reverse-Auburn game?

 

[Drew0311]

It was this time last year when we went to Morgantown and lost and the season went to **** after that. I’m hoping this isn’t a repeat of last year.

We even got ranked 2nd that same week. This is getting really similar to last years team. Look fantastic to start the year and slowly get a little worse, then fall of a cliff

 

[CycloneVet]

Jesus I hate Bilas

 

[Thomasrickj]

What a ******* sorry ass first half. We aren’t as good as I thought because no team that’s number 2 in the country turns the ball over a million times like this dog **** performance we are having.

 

[isucyfan]

Don't forget, we're a second half team!

 

[GoSTATE71]

Again no problem losing a game but getting absolutely skull crushed is unacceptable.

 

[yler4cy]

This team should be very embarrassed by that half. Absolutely pathetic showing.

 

[cycloneworld]

Thank you lord for ending this half.

That’s up there with the worst halves under TJ.

(Edit: excluding the Pitt NCAA tournament game…that entire thing was brutal)

 

[madguy30]

Last years team got punched in the mouth and would fold. Afraid of that happening Saturday.

They had a bunch of injuries and a guy out for a long stretch.

Do people even pay attention to how much that impacts a basketball team?

 

[Darius Bieber]

Again no problem losing a game but getting absolutely skull crushed is unacceptable.

Especially against a team who should be 0-3 in the Big 12 right now

 

[1TwistedCyclone]

So, no more technical difficulties in the second half.

 

[Clonefan32]

Losing sucks but a little reality check this point in the year isn’t all bad. TJ will have their attention…

 

[DSM4Cy]

Defense has been bad but this is very much an offense problem and has been for a month.

it’s just a bit harder to recover from a slow start and poor shooting at Allen Fieldhouse. You let the crowd get in it, a desperate KU crowd. Yeah, not a good plan for success.
