quit over reacting. Lindell is in his way. Solomon will be coming back to guard some down low guys and rebound.
We had a bad night and they had a couple guys go off on their home court.
In two months teams are not going to know how to guard Wigginton, THT, Shayok, Jacobson and the rest of our guys. Plus two months of playing together.
Big 12 better get their crap together because we will only get better and start smashing teams. Take a breath people.
Agree with OP. We had a terrible night from 3 and were out-rebounded. Iowa was shooting 68% form the field and 85% from 3pt line at half. That is clearly an outlier, it just sucks it happened against us.
This game was a near "Must-Win" for IA and the first time a lot of our guys had experienced the rivalry. I was glad to see it get a lil chippy at times as that stuff is what creates that tension in the future.
I think ISU will be fine, lots of moving pieces early in the season for us and we still have 3-4 weeks to get some of that smoothed out before Conference play. IA looks improved from last year but still not convinced on that team and i do worry it could be a "bad" loss at the end of the year as Fran's teams seem to fold late in the year.
Get people healthy, get to work, and it should still be some fun basketball to watch this year!
