Michigan (ISU Mention) Article

  • After Iowa State won the Big 12, a Cyclone made a wonderful offer to We Will that now increases our match. Now all gifts up to $400,000 between now and the Final 4 will be matched. Please consider giving at We Will Collective.

I like the thought of Kane matching up against a freshman.

With how good they were last year, 5-5 on the road and a younger team this year is a plus for us.

Agreed. My take is that they see ISU as a step above a directional school, but certainly not BIG10 caliber, which is fine. I think the U of M is going to get a bit of a surprise come Sunday afternoon.

Bleacher report is a crowd-sourcing website. You're not going to find a lot of "random Joe's" that know squat about ISU.

I am getting the feeling that Michigan fans (and team?) look at us just like Notre Dame looked at us in the tourney. I like it.

I like the fact that this team has failed to put together two decent halves in one game. ISU could get out to a big lead, or if they don't they can certainly have hope that Michigan will have problems keep their foot on the gas the whole game.

Noticed the comments on the bottom of the page- someone asked if McGary was going to play and they guy that wrote the article said that he was unlikely to play and would probably return when they go to Puerto Rico (21st).

I wonder who guards stauskas that kid scares me more than any other

My order would be

1. Lavert
2. Stauskas
3. GR3
4. Irvin
5. Walton
6. Whatever post. Their posts are not really offensive threats. GR3 has yet to prove he can create anything on his own.

Defending the pick and roll with Stauskas and Lavert will be the whole key.

I feel like they were a bit snarky and undermining ISU in the two paragraph's about them. Bleacher Report seems to hate us, anyway. They're also a bunch of idiots who don't know basketball.

True. Bleacher Report has an Iowa State section, but the last 2 articles written were about CFH extending and Royce declaring for the draft.

Good point on #6. GRIII is playing the 3 instead of the 4 now and he's struggling to adjust.
