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

[awd4cy]

Houston has really started to get rolling lately.

 

[GoSTATE71]

Forcing horrible shots again. When we were passing it around we made that run now it’s back to hero ball

 

[Die4Cy]

Sometimes it's just not the stuff you're doing to lose, it's the stuff you're not doing.

 

[cyatheart]

Eh, never know.

ISU needs to be a lot more patient or they'll be in for a tough one again.

Really need to figure out the horrific starts. And figure out a way to get some movement vs a set half court offense. These coaches have and will keep adjusting.

It was at least fun for a little while. Like others have said…. we haven’t played well for a while now, and you can’t get away with that every game…. especially in the Phog.

This team has a lot to learn about coming out and playing their A game from the opening tip, and not letting up.

This reminds me of when Kansas was always the big dog and we would whip them at home. Rolls are now reversed and they are whipping us. Bad

 

[DRH]

TJ draws up a Milan dfadaway out of the timeout???

We’ve been bad out of timeouts TJs entire tenure. On both ends

 

[Thomasrickj]

I guess the bigger concern in this one is our front court tonight. Ouch

The bigger concern is our entire roster. We can’t do anything right tonight. It’s not just our frontcourt being weak. It’s everyone. Jefferson can be a complete liability at times, Momcilovic can’t create enough shots, Lipsey is undersized so when he goes against big guys when he drives it in, it’s difficult for him to score. We got exposed and we aren’t the number 2 team we thought. If this were close I’d chalk it up to an off night, but we are getting completely throttled and it’s extremely concerning.

 

[Malone]

We had 44 with 12 minutes left in the half.

We now have 47 with 7:21 left

 

[Cyhig]

Kuddos to anyone still watching. I’ve seen what I need to see tonight.

 

[madguy30]

The way we are playing tonight Cincy will kick our ass

Nah, that game will be tough but KU's in a much needed different realm tonight.

I don't know what they'll end up doing but they look way more connected than last year.

 

[Prone2Clone]

So typical.

 

[bluestarcyclone]

I find stuff like this comical. Kansas still has talent. They have a top 5 environment at home in all basketball. They have a hall of fame coach. They have their backs totally against the wall. Can we not act shocked that they played well?

They've played well but we've also played like **** aside from like 5 minutes of this game. Lets not act like its one or the other.

An ass kicking might be good for this team

So...just play the A game?

 

[Prone2Clone]

We can only hope.

The analytics may look unfavorably upon this outing.

 

[Darius Bieber]

An ass kicking might be good for this team

Or could derail the season. Let's be real, this team hasn't looked good in a long while

 

[KCyclone2010]

This is the point in the season TJs teams historically have imploded. If he doesn’t get this team straight for Saturday, we are in trouble the rest of the season.

We’ve played poorly, but they’ve had a lot to do with it. Just ran into a desperate team that hadn’t played up to their talents and we weren’t up to the test. It’s a long season. It happens
