The loss doesn’t hurt us, at all. What drives me nuts is HOW we lost, we’ve seen this before where we try to slow the pace and play a half court offense which doesn’t exist.
I hope this team is closer to the first half version than the second half. Cause man that was some ugly ugly play in the second half. Gave up 50 points! That's not acceptable for a team with the offensive limitations we seem to still have in the halfcourt
You’re an absolute moron
This actually cost us the game, they had a bunch of rebounds they took advantage of and it was the difference. I would say about 10 points worth at least
He was recovering from a knee injury/surgery much of the summer so not too surprising.
We're going to get a lot better as the season goes on. It's really, really early. But I love this team's potential.
Found the hok troll.
But hey while we're at it, any tourney season is good sl let's see it.
I think we will be really good, prob won't lose at home either.
But there are a couple red flags that are very similar to last year. Half court detail and disclipline offensively and the stretch 4 issue. It's really early though, hard to read much into these games this early.
I wouldn't be concerned about the half court issues if it wasn't a problem tj has always had.
Still early, these games mean almost nothing really.

He did seem to be forcing that turn around a couple times tonight. Maybe that's a reason?
The worst case scenario you can take from this game is that Auburn probably would’ve won by 10 or so had Baker-Mazarro not gotten injured in the first half. If that’s 8 seed material you must not think Auburn is very good
First real dumbass post of the night, actually lower number than I thought.
I just hate holding the ball out of the timeout. It puts you at such a disadvantage to not start your set until there is 6 seconds left. No opportunity for secondary looks and ball movement. Just run offense and if you have a shot take it. Either way they were going to have plenty of time to get a shot off.
I just can’t understand the logic behind making them guard for 6 seconds instead of 20 seconds

Great basketball game to watch, sure its frustrating the way we finished and the long draught coming out of the 2nd half, but its a great opportunity for the team to learn about their weaknesses and what their strengths are. No one is going to discount us for a 2 point loss to between the #4 and #5 ranked teams.
Maybe we should take you seriously. Assuming you’re a UI fan, you’re probably an expert on what 8 seeds look like
according to the announcers, Iowa state must not have been there. ESPN announcers just love them some SEC and cheating Bruce Pearl.
