Maybe we aren't? Unless we're hitting from three and getting lots of points off turnovers anyone can hang with us and we can lose. Just like Cincy and tonight.
*** Official #5 IOWA STATE vs TCU Game(Day) Thread ***

I’m not ready to agree to this hot take. BUT I would not want to play Iowa right now again. I doubt Iowa loses this game down the stretch like we did tonight. Especially how well Iowa is playing right now.
Not by 60, but win in a similar fashion as the other two top 5 road teams who played today did. (Houston and Duke)
When Jefferson plays smart he’s fun to watch but he seriously lacks any understanding of his limitations and continues to dribble into traffic or force things. He will not last long in the NBA playing with zero self awareness and those flaws are going to get even more exposed at the next level. I hope he has a good stretch to end the year and cleans up the things that kill this team
Maybe realize the FF talk is just talk and needs a lot to go on to even happen.
The FF's in the current era are going to largely go to the most athletic teams anyway and that will be the main difference.
We made our first two . . . . only to miss six straight, including front end of one and one.
I mean, he’s kinda right. This loss is ridiculous. I think it’s more embarrassing this TCU team came off a narrow win at home against a decimated KSU team that was really bad to begin with.
Frankly Tamin has enough experience he could have/should have adjusted on his own. First time I've seen him cave in a pressure situation since at TTU his freshman year.
The phog-like crowd is to blame!
Honestly, this was hardly a road game loss.
Ps. I predicted a big game from Batemon. Yikes

You would think we'd be more comfortable against traps, given how often we must practice it ourselves. Everybody just looked checked out the last 10 minutes.
Not a good effort overall, but really looked bad at end. Just looked lost/overmatched on both ends.
Thought that Dixon did a great job and our staff didn't react. The whole night the TCU guards pushed out Tamin & Joshua. We were initiating our offense 35 feet from the basket.
TCU also took advantage of our switching everything. TJ went small, but TCU still had solid mismatches and got good shots.
But this game was lost because of our half court offense.

The goal should be a 2 or 3 seed, and at this point in the season, and against this brutal Big 12 schedule, big wins are more important than mediocre losses.
1 seed is cool story, but really not that much different than a 2 or 3.
Actually we fly prop planes because our AD is a tightwad. But point taken.
But again, your logic doesn’t make sense. You were using TCU losing to Colorado to show how bad TCU is. Yet ISU best Colorado by30. So you can’t use the outcome of other games to project onto other games
All you’re doing is posting gibberish. But that’s all you post
Tamin was GREAT against it when we went on the run to get ahead.
But otherwise yes...it was dreadful and he played right into Dixon's hands by picking up the dribble repeatedly in bad spots.
I think the issue is that yet again we had expectations for maybe a run but yet again we’re showing a lot of flaws that make any chance of a mcaa tourney run very unlikely which is disappointing when you achieve a top 5 ranking most of the season
Im still not the world's biggest fan of our bigs trapping at the top of the arc on D either.
