*** Official #9 Kansas vs #2 IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

[NY Chicago Fan]

Missed dunk, multiple unforced bad pass turnovers and yet still won this game basically start to finish and pulling away.

Jones was awesome first half keeping ISU ahead with bucket after bucket!

And total team effort and results on defense end almost every possession. Kansas frustrated and never in sync.

ISU looked bigger and tougher which was great to see. That fact and their non stop energy leads to blowout even when the offense had one of worst dry spells of seasi to start second half.

If Bill Self would die his beard stubble like Garth Brooks he could be a little more extra creepy.....like Garth Brooks.

I’ve loved Bill for about the last ~6 yrs. Don’t know what shifted just don’t hate him anymore.

 

[CloneLawman]

there are a number of great teams out there, especially in the SEC, long athletic and skilled.

Yep. And ISU, on a given night, is capable of beating any of them.

Interesting headline from Bleacher Report.

Obviously we are a better team with Milan but KU is a really good matchup to have to play Watson. They are big and athletic on the front line and have a handful of wing players who are slasher type of guys. He's built to play against those kinds of players. Hopefully he can keep playing solid and TJ can use him in certain specific matchups or situations even when Milan returns.

Probably because we've been kicking his ass

I assume you're talking about getting out of the parking lot.

Otz has become Fred with his offensive plays out of the timeout. Money!!

Fred was Otz during that timeline

And 1. Defender was in his space

Credit to coach Schmidt from everything I’ve heard.

KU was very impressive on defense but they’ll be so much better when Harris, Dickinson and Adams move on. They just bog down the offense so much.

Interesting headline from Bleacher Report.

Dumb. I guess all we can do is keep winning to make the narratives change.

I actually am glad Bilas was in person as maybe it'll get him and others at ESPN.

Also....Curt Jones....needs to be a household name nationally.

My 90 year old grandma has never paid attention to bb. Now she's hooked on it! She's in love with CuJo, thinks he's really cute!

Is Hunter Dickinson the most overrated basketball player of this generation?
