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

Down 4 after that **** show is okay

 

[dahliaclone]

All that being said and as awful as we've played...we're only down 4. I'll take it given the circumstances

 

[Darius Bieber]

Should have challenged that

 

[CycloneRulzzz]

Not sure how we got it down to 4. TJ better chew some ass.

 

[Die4Cy]

Otz is pumped. Not sure why, that wasn't very well covered.

 

[exCYtable]

I'll take only being down four all day after the way we played that half.

 

[Wally86]

Wow! Need another run to get ahead

 

[Cycsk]

Ask for the challenge. Looked pretty clear on TV that Toure threw the ball to hit the Cincinnati player. The ball changed direction after Toure threw it.

 

[Skyh13]

That was about as obviously off of Cincinnati as it could get, seriously, you’re standing right there, how the **** do you miss that

 

[cyclo120]

Being down 4 feels like a miracle right now. That was bad, but we got a chance. Team needs to show up 2nd half.

 

[NoCreativity]

Couldn't have played any worse and only down 4. I guess ill take it.

 

[tim_redd]

Terrible half, but good to close the margin to 4. Play smarter and tougher in the 2nd and we might win.

 

[cycloneworld]

I guess our 10 minute slow starts have expanded to 18 minutes.

 

[blutarsky]

Jefferson is flat out pathetic right now

Gotta have him out there. It’s tough to watch but he’s your best player and mismatch. If he made a few more buckets and made a few more assists it’s probably tied. But I agree. He needs to earn his paycheck right now.

 

[HFCS]

There are going to 10 fouls called in the first 4 minutes of the 2nd half.

It’s really just Cinci guards than need a few and it’d be a “normal” game.

That’s as visibly upset at officials as I’ve ever seen TJ.

Great play by Toure

 

[xr4ticlone]

Pretty cool we have bigs that can't finish at the rim then look like a comedy show at the free throw line. Perfect combination.

I was told hitting ‘layups and bunnies’ oversimplifies it.

We got a lot of bunny killers on the floor lately.

Jefferson has zero business dribbling a basketball FTR.

 

[ClonerJams]

I miss Melvin Ejim

This team needs a Dustin Hogue

 

[flycy]

wonder what TJ was fired up about

The constant hacking and bumping the ball handler with no call maybe.

 

[rosshm16]

Just like KU, when you're struggling - playing Iowa State is all you need. It's wild.

This year you even get to call it a victory over the #2 team, it's a real service we're doing for the rest of the league.
