I think Lea Nelson just said that the streak started before she was born. Can that be correct?

I am older than Lea and I was born in 99. So the streak was older than me.

I had never heard of the streak? Is it just hitting a three in a game?

People are really that upset about it?

 

[loyalsons4evertrue]

So…just chuck up shots for a streak that truly nobody really knows about besides Iowa state. Come on now, this game was ugly for the most part…we did what was needed to win. Get over the streak being done. Without looking, who has the next longest and how long???? Yea….nobody really cares!

It was nice to have ONE record to our name.

Anyone else get cut off mid interview on 106.3 around DSM?

Yes

It probably is meaningless but it’s an Iowa State women’s basketball staple. You just expect it.

We were great from three point land in Arizona and then we come home out of all places and somehow lose the streak to one of the worst teams in the country.

It’s more about how bad our offensive scheme is.

Not the prettiest game for the Cyclones, but its all about winning. It's tough for our offense to be efficient when Joens, Harris, Willson & Hansford score 2 points combined. Audi and Addi had 70% of our points.

Beyond scoring I felt Lily Hansford was a difference maker. Her stat line is very misleading. She played outstanding defense and I was surprised she only had 1 board.

Don’t say that…it’s just about the streak! Lmao!

We have the record, right? Just the streak ended.

the point being we didn't want it to end

Don't we still have the record? If it was only active streak, they all gotta end at some point.

Bill's legacy and ISU women basketball legacy is bigger than the 3 point streak- aka Big12 Titles, Big12 Tournament Championships, NCAA Tournaments, Great Student Athletes, Tremendous Fan Support, etc.

It will be broken shortly.

And likely that he held on too long when the game had passed him by.

Oh my god, are people really upset about this streak?

Someone claiming the team is unlikeable because they didn't hit a 3?

We still have the record. Probably always will.

We need to get back to our bread and butter, complaining about the refs.

 

[RocketCy]

We certainly lost a significant recruiting tool.

Oh, they had a bad overall game too… but that’s pretty much normal in wbb, so I don’t bother complaining anymore.

Going with what works to win?

 

[Jnecker4cy]

Man gotta Love Cyclone fans. We win to get to 4-2 in league play, now tied for 4th and have won 3 in a row, playing better and now the sky is falling the streak ended. We took 7 all game, obviously not our game plan. Would have loved to see on go in but it did not, we scored 71 points, no three pointers in a non flow offensive game mucked up by Texas Tech. I'll take the win thank you.

 

[ISC]

Except it doesn’t against good teams - evidence our record against quad one opponents
