Iowa State is 8-0 in Big 12 Semifinal and Championship games since 2014. It feels like there's been an amazing streak of either losing in the first round or winning the Big 12 tournament.

It also seems like ISU is never on the NCAA tournament bubble. I don't think there's been a bubble year since that year Johnny told **** Vitale that he kicked his ***.

I don't know how fragile our bubble position was in 2013, but we were a #10 seed that year, which is classic bubble team territory.

yeah, I think they won their first tourney game that year and that kind of sealed it.

I think we sealed it against Baylor in the last game of the conference season in Hilton to get to 10-8 in conference.

More please on the aggressive offense and double down defense. The is a confident team right now with a great mix of experience and youth.

How many programs could win 4 of 6 with two different coaches? Pretty special.

Except for yesterday, this one really didn't have the drama of 14 and 15. In 17, we kind of won easily all the games.

But I could not be more proud of all of the players and coaches. It would have been very, very easy to give up. Most of us had. I had. Those players looked like they couldn't have cared less about each other. But they sucked it up and they are playing really well.

I think Wigginton has become our go to player in end of clock situations. He doesn't need a screen to get by his man, and can elevate to get a shot off pretty much at will.
