***Houston @ Iowa State Game Thread***

[kingcy]

This is the most disciplined we've played all night...finally

Something to build on maybe? Something to show that this is how you win games.

Like I said... Mediacom.... I don't complain when stuff is on Direct or Dish... I have what I have.

The games used to be on regular TV...not some local flunky cable access channel...

 

[tim_redd]

just need to make free throws now

 

[swarthmoreCY]

No fouling UH?
McD and Co did a good job of clock management/fouling at the end of regulation and OT 1.

 

[ISUcy08]

ISU down 13-12 to Minnesota. Three matches left.

 

[CycloneErik]

This isn't the sort of idea that I like, but is it possible that Duke has our guys' attention more than Houston did?

Or did we try to play too fast in the first half?

I've just gotten home, so most of this game was a radio deal for me.

 

[CycloneErik]

ISU wins....still needs work

We'll both agree on this.

 

[Cyclone90]

Oh, look. They gave up an uncontested drive to the basket.

 

[JUKEBOX]

When will ISU start to be on real TV?

 

[isucyfan]

There's going to be a lot of upset people here today...what will they do since they can't meltdown? Kick their dog?

Who am I kidding, they will still melt down that we didn't win by 20.

This is how I see it. Hopefully they are receptive to it as well.

 

[rochclone]

Nice to have a team get a few breaks down the stretch. Hopefully they can finish the last thirty seconds.

Maybe they'll finally realize they can't stand around looking lost and expect to win.


Hopefully

awesome. needed this kind of win.

this may be a 'defining game' we look back on.

 

[kingcy]

ESPN on Wed.

 

[ISUser]

Houston is a decent team with a winning record. Just be happy with a win here, especially one in a close game, which we haven't had yet this year.

 

[Bader]

Oh, look. They gave up an uncontested drive to the basket.

Jesus Christ man.

We've held the team leading the nation in scoring under their average through 2 Over Times!

I think playing too slow has been the problem.

Were the nonconference games that way? I can't remember.

 

[ppclone]

oh. and all you Debbie Downers.....smile a little. we pulled a tough one out against a tough team. don't caveat this with 'but we coulda/shoulda _____'.

this was a nice one. enjoy!
