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

[cmhawks99]

I'll pick a slow start over good start any day to be honest.

Obviously a lead is great but can just be due to shots falling while the gane settles in.

Been there many times & I agree with you. Let’s just say this; jumping out to a double digit lead versus a good team has no more indication of whether or not you’re going to win in the end than getting behind to that same team by double digits.

I’m getting the “just wait until TJ leaves” from the Hawks in my life.

What a pathetic bunch

Suck it hoks. Suck if for the next 20 years. TJ will retire from ISU as the greatest college coach in any sport in state athletics history.

Had an emergency surgery for a 5 millimeter kidney stone. Great thing to wake up to.

Did you still think you were dreaming when you saw the score?

So, let me see if I got this right. Pope spent $22 million and didn’t have a good point guard in the round of 32?

UK fans seem to think TJ is their next coach. Poor, dumb bastards.

And what is it with Jim Spanarkel mispronouncing Nate's name, Hy-Zee, every ISU game this year? Shame on him and on CBS for not correcting him. No one else mispronounces his name. The Olympic crew got his siter's name right in Olympic hockey. Only Spanarkel get's Nate's name wrong, every time.

I thought it was Spero with the Z call?

You could be right. I thought it was Spanarkel (Eastern accent).

Maarcelason78, after listeing more closely, I believe you are right. It is Spero Dedes that keeps misprouncing Heise's name Hy-Zee. Their voices are fairly similar at times.

Still, both of them, and CBS should try to correct name mispronouncing. IMO. It's like they don't care.

I was told we struggle against teams with length.

Maybe they didn't mean arms.

We got down 20-9 and my sis texts me 'change your shirt to the raggedy piece of **** that's good luck'. So I did. The rest is history.

#superstitious

For reasons I don't have time to explain, I wasn't wearing my lucky Iowa State shirt until about that same point. Got it changed. Won't make that mistake again!

Keep up the great work!

Let's Go!!!

That was Kentucky's worst NCAA tourney loss since Adolph Rupp was their coach. 54 years ago.

So are they going to name an arena after Pope now as well?

 

[t-noah]

I think I've now elevated him as my Favorite Cyclone of All Time. A month or two ago, I said on here that he was in my top 4 of Lipsey, Hoiberg, Niang, and Purdy... but I don't think I can honestly put anyone above him any longer. Just love Tamin Lipsey... he is the entire package of everything you want as a Cyclone fan. Kudos to him!

Tamin is great, one of a kind. A great player and human being!

Where is the Kentucky board?

Buchanan’s shot should not be included in team 3 point percentage.

@BWRhasnoAC wishing you a speedy recovery from your surgery!
Today's game at least helps your morale!

 

[rosshm16]

If Toure and Batemon continue to average a collective ~20 points, we are a tough out.

He won't be here forever. There's going to be a lot of blue bloods circling the waters here. UNC it's about to for their coach maybe.

 

[Clonedogg]

He HATES games like these. Strange human being, that Bieber.

I think he just likes to wallow in misery. I have a cousin like that.

Going into the game he had only missed one 3pt on the season though
