*** Official #12 IOWA STATE vs #17 BYU Game(Day) Thread ***

ISU is playing like they feel they have to win it on the offensive end, but I still think stopping BYU while we're on D is the key. We've stopped turning them over and refs are calling us for ticky-tack fouls which is going to open back up their jumpshot unfortunately.
 
JFC the foul discrepancy for a team that rarely goes to the hoop is absurd

18 fouls to 9
I mean...Keshon and Tamin would've shot about 100 free throws today if the game was called similar to the fouls we're getting whistled for...we just don't have anyone who can create like they do.

It's crazy to think they 5 fouls they've had called this half matches the total from the first half. They are actually getting called tighter right now than the first half.
 
There is little chance of winning this. The officials will have them I'm DB the next call. They have fouls to give and they won't call them. If we go on a run they'll run like a scared rabbit into the lane, fall down, get a call and shoot 100% FTs.
 
That ref really, really didn't want to blow that whistle.
Still can't get over Jefferson getting both arms hammered while holding the ball & nothing called. Wild
About Heise getting to the ball, gets his legs cut and he gets called.
 
Incredible job offensively.

Atrocious job by the coaching staff defensively. The players deserved better than this.

And they haven't called much for body fouls all day on either end which is what BYU does constantly. They're getting us for reaching all the time when BYU drives which BYU doesn't do much.
My God man, ISU is missing their two best defenders that the entire defense is built around.
