*** Official #20 BYU vs #6 IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

[clonedude]

This is how they blow a perfect home season and a 2 seed, to freaking BYU? Pathetic

Uhhh…. BYU is REALLY good. Smoked us last time and won at KU too. These guys are a very good team.

Cannot lose on senior night. Cannot.

after the game -

TJ Otzelburger is 0-3 on Senior Days in his career at ISU. Is it time to move on? My Column:

Crazy we got destroyed by them in Provo and we’ve made zero adjustments for this game. Ours guys look slow, tired, and beat up. Gotta get more bodies in there.

 

[BigJCy]

We won’t go anywhere in March with an offense like this, especially when we get matched up with teams that can actually score.

Yep, hope I'm wrong but I just don't see the offense getting much better. Some guys look tired and have low confidence shooting right now.

 

[mynameisjonas]

Truly pathetic performance.

 

[madguy30]

What would you call what we're doing?

Playing a team that's a terrible match up all day every day.

Trying to catch a team that's hitting with great ball movement/passing and offensively not able to get much for rhythmic looks due to their length.

When there have been looks it's hurried because BYU does well with poking from all angles.

Why the f are we drawing up plays for a guy that plays five minutes/game?

Horrendous half. This team, at this point of the season, is only marginally better than last year’s and could absolutely get boat run by a 14 seed.

This is just a moronic take.

 

[isucyfan]

Beat KSU, then drop the first round Big 12 tournament game, rest, reset for the Big Dance.

We need a physical and mental break.

 

[Erik4Cy]

BYU is what Iowa wishes they were.

This. Always felt like both teams try to recruit the douchiest white guys available that can shoot. BYU is just better than Iowa at it.

 

[cyatheart]

Byu is just so far ahead of us offensively I don't think we can close this. We just aren't adjusting at all.

Just need to stack a few stops together and get Hilton roaring. Second half we will be better.

 

[Marcelason78]

Hate to say it, but I don’t know if BigRob can play the five out top against this offense. Will be interesting to see if the coaches can stop these wide open threes.

 

[Tpups21]

Seems like the offensive floor spacing is terrible. Too many guys standing in the same spot.

 

[fsanford]

This is similar to the OSU final home game last year.

OSU hit a ton of shots and it was over quickly

 

[1TwistedCyclone]

BYU doesn't play that rough and tumble on defense, but they are hacking the hell out of us, and getting away with it. I simply don't understand some of the blatant fouls these refs have let fly when we have been going up for shots. I'm not trying to whine, but Big Rob and Tre should have had some free throws

 

[iastatefan1]

I would be telling our guys we can take an extra step/travel to get layups until officials call it. They do it.

 

[cincinnaticyclone]

I’m putting every cent I own on the #13 or #14 seed lucky enough to draw us in the NCAA Tournament

 

[Bob f]

We have got to figure out how to turn them over. It’s our only shot really.

We can't. Is maddening

 

[AuH2O]

They couldn’t miss from 3. Crazy. Normally I would say that they can’t keep it up but these guys don’t miss.

They are 6/14. Really good but not crazy considering they are getting whatever they want offensively.
