*** Official IOWA STATE VS #18 Iowa Game(Day) Thread ***

[ClonesTwenty1]

This was basically a must win for Iowa or their season was headed down the crapper.

Can't rebound - can't even hang onto a ball. Some bounces going right to Iowa. Definitely not ISU's night at all

 

[ca4cy]

So ignore that road games are tough and ignore we have our most talented player out?

It's not that big a deal. Our best team of all time lost to Drake with all the key players. You saw Mini Mad and Pencil going nuts, this is life or death to them. Most of our guys could care less about the Hawkeyes and it just isn't that way in reverse, maybe they should care a little more about it like Georges did.

I'm not ignoring it but he doesn't have anything to do with us getting our asses kicked on the boards or Iowa getting all the 50 50 balls. This will be a big teaching moment for this young team. We'll see how they respond

This is a game we need Lard down low defensively...

Lard is a terrible post defender one on one. He's a great potential eraser but he's terrible against players like Cook.

So Iowa will salvage their season.

Will be be funny to watch their fans this week talk about making a run at the B1G title now. Should be all Unicorn Farts and Roses until they hit mid-January.

This sucks

 

[Cyclonepride]

Iowa is just draining everything, and when they miss, it bounces through three of our players and right to them.

 

[CycloneRulzzz]

Let them have their Super Bowl. We will win more conference games than they do.

 

[NoCreativity]

Do we even run an offense? Does Prohm even teach them anytjing or just stand there like the 15-16 team?

 

[Jammin’]

Just a bad bad bad effort. Not sure they want to be playing at all. Really weird body language. Not sure if Prohm really understands how big this game is for the state.

 

[CYber_saber]

We just give up points in a hurry

 

[CloneFan4]

Once again Prohm outcoached by McCaffrey.

Can we reach into the checkbook and get a Bobby Lutz or Doc Sadler type for the guy. In desperate need.

 

[GTO]

JFC...

 

[cyrocksmypants]

Man, did we just decide to not play defense tonight? This is awful.

 

[NoCreativity]

Iowa is just draining everything, and when they miss, it bounces through three of our players and right to them.

Because we suck at positioning on rebounds. This is 2017 all over again with our tiny team getting embarrassed by bigger teams.

 

[marothisu]

Iowa is just draining everything, and when they miss, it bounces through three of our players and right to them.

Yep. Also our players are just not playing with any focus or IQ. They just kept settling for 3s while Iowa shooting lights out growing the lead a lot. They aren't making anything but keep taking those shots so easily. Not high IQ play right there for our guys.

Also, the rebounding for us today is so bad. Handful of occasions where a simple box out would have done, but Iowa got points off the rebound in mid air (dunks or tip ins).

 

[bostrem00]

They're not even attempting to make it difficult on Iowa....why is Babb down low 1 on 1 on defense?

 

[herbicide]

Iowa is just draining everything, and when they miss, it bounces through three of our players and right to them.

They're making their own luck. Our guys not boxing out, they're just staring at the ball.

Did you see the first 8 games?

Well let’s see how they respond to adversity.
