*** Official Tennessee State vs #6 IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

[CYedUp]

I like we are not letting up at all atm

 

[Raiders70]

I would imagine it's mostly precautionary at this point?

I thought he was Xrayed...they already know the result if its broken.

 

[AuH2O]

No need to return Jefferson today but there’s a zero chance he comes back. His career at Iowa state is done. That ankle turn was horrid

Just had a sports med doctor we know say there’s a decent chance at a sweet sixteen return. So I’m going to watch with that in mind just to keep my interest high.

Listen if Wright state beats UVA we just need a miracle against Kentucky to have a shot at an elite 8

A miracle? No. Even without JJeff, Iowa State will be favored and with good reason

 

[Nor'MidWester]

Killyan them softly a good nickname?

Meh, Kentucky isn't the Kentucky everyone is used to seeing. Fortunate to get by Santa Clara. I'm going to go out on a limb and say us minus Jefferson is better than SC.

 

[BillBrasky4Cy]

Some of ya'll need to sack up and trust the team.

 

[ianoconnor]

Virginia in a dog fight with Wright State right now.

Go Raiders! (Dayton native)

This is exactly like 2014 with Niang. That team was loaded with talent as well. But without Niang, there wasn't a way it would make a deep run

It sucks. And it sucks it is happening again. Life of a cyclone fan

ISU defends now so this had more potential.

Pleta!!!

I wouldn't even say miracle. I think we can beat UK without JJ as long as the other guys are on their game. Just won't be nearly as easy as if we had JJ.

Wonder if we throw 3 guards at Kentucky and start Milan at the 4.

Sucks Santa Clara lost, cause starting 3 guards would work better against them.

We are pretty guard heavy now too. Hasn't played yet but Kelderman has experience as well at least. So 6 guards

I guess you can just grab Tamin’s arm on a layup and it’s just as good as a block for these refs.

In honor of Nolan Smith wearing his NCAA ring today, I’m wearing my nose ring. We’ll, it’s a ring from my shower curtain, but it’s gonna bring us luck god damnit

Are you saying we should go with a 6-guard lineup

 

[FriendlySpartan]

IANAD - do they typically ice for suspected broken bones?
Seems like a waste when you’d need to get it set as quickly as possible.

Depends on the fracture. You need to control the inflammation for several reasons but mainly to help with immobilization. Also not all fractures need to be “set” especially if it’s just a hairline fracture.

Not putting weight on it and then controlling for inflammation/pain are the same treatment course for most sprains and fractures this early on.

Is just weird with the 2 fouls he got called for

Been like that for the last two full seasons.

 

[demoncore1031]

These missed free throws and layups are annoying. They might not matter today but will bite us in the ass against Kentucky.

It's just odd the similarities with 2014. Foot injury to key player in first round followed by playing a national blue blood in the second round. Hopefully they can find a way to beat Kentucky like how the 2014 team beat North Carolina
