Unbelievable. Truly.

I thought they would regress to the mean, but, ooof.... that is some brass balls defensive pressure from ISU.

[Cyclonepride]

Guys in Vegas are just silly good. I think the line was ISU -2.5 with total points at 134.5.

The Batemon and Heise back-to-back 3s were MASSIVE. Give credit to J-Jef for that cross-court pass to Heise.

Coach has faith in these guys for them to be in under those circumstances. Huge

Ugh if we didn’t lay a stinker against TCU or Cincy we’d be tied for first

 

[Wally86]

OMG Tamin w/that Oreb on the FT miss..... I"m going out of my freaking mind!

With the consistent misses he knew where it was going

 

[cayin]

anyone else love Nate Heise?

 

[Cydewayz]

And now to our player of the game...
Nate Heise!

Sciambi sounded flat out surprised saying it lololol

Heise has that stretch where he just kept getting boards/loose balls and made shots. Hes one of those guys the other teams probably don't scout for, but always makes the plays

 

[ClonesTwenty1]

70-67 Cyclones.

Going to be a great game. I imagine it’s fairly low scoring as both of these defenses are pretty damn good. Win this game and we can finally start talking about the possibility of a conference championship.

What do I win?

Beat #1 and #2 on the year? Seems good.

 

[JCity]

Great adjustments made in the 2nd half

 

[helechopper]

We’ve now beat the #1 and #2 teams in the nation. Not too shabby for the resume.

 

[Die4Cy]

Outside of a #1 seed, everything this team wants is waiting for them.

Could always just enjoy things as they come along.

It's not often ISU is going to beat #9 and #2 in three days.

Now I finally understand what it means to be Tuff as Rain.

 

[Pizzapitter]

Thank God we were 1-11 in 3pt second half shooting!

 

[HarryClone]

Milan sat out what the last 5-6 minutes or so? Guess TJ didn't think he had it tonight.

He was waiting to check back in until Batemon hit the big 3, then TJ pulled him back to the bench. Batemon seemed to defend Fleming reasonably well while Fleming hunted the switch onto Milan a few times as well.

 

[bosco]

anyone else love Nate Heise?

Me likey Nate Heise.

 

[CentexCyclone]

Love the W, but Milan needs to get a lot more than 5 3pt attempts against top teams
