That was a big, big win early in the year
Bit of a tangent and perhaps it popped up in a thread elsewhere but whats happened to Talley this season? I know he was suspended and then both THT and Halliburton were playing exceptional ball so there weren't many minutes to spare but with the way they've cooled off and how well Talley played at the end of last year I'm surprised he basically hasn't had any meaningful minutes in B12 play.
Another unforgettable win I somehow failed to remember.
Regarding the score, I checked on cyclones.com, ISU 104-96. So you were close --- 200 points total.
As far as tonight, I think Coach Prohm is big on riding whatever is working. Beyond that, I don’t think Talley stretches the defense as well as other options that we have (and that’s kind of critical to what we do).
Just checked the game recap from Associated Press. Includes 2 references to Lindell "Winnington."
There's our new nickname for him

Sorry, nerding out on this now.

Actually Shayok got away with a big time push off on that play to get open. Lucky no ref saw it.
And we're still not playing our best basketball yet.
I got caught up at work and left late, then got home and ended up talking to the parents for longer than anticipated. I felt good about the game tonight, but was kind of hedging my bets, by being able fast fwd things, so it wasn't a 2 hour plus committment. The last two games were so deflating that I didn't want to get my hopes up.
Just made 5-gallon jug of kool-aid, which I'll drink before bed.
Well, Culver got a nice forearm clear out to open up the shot late too, so it evened out
Yes Wigginton struggled finishing and forced some bad shots, but he created for others when he attacked the lane. He seems ready to break out at any moment.
Added scores and years.
This was Iowa States 3rd largest margin of victory on the road vs a top 10 team in program history (t1st purdue '87, Indiana '62)
Wow. Just got back to the room. That was fun tonight. Building was live.
These guys definitely left it all out there. Battled like hell, and overcame some adversity.
The one ref took over the game in the second half, but the kids just kept playing through it. I don’t know how the season ends, but if they play with that passion and that stick to it attitude to overcome bad breaks, they’re going to have a chance to be a really good team.
As far as the out of bounds plays, watching live, it seems that they don’t commit on screens and cuts.
I haven’t had a chance to read through the thread, had it up during the game but didn’t look too much at it. Are there any people missing from the thread?

Yeah, Wiggi’s shot wasn’t falling, but the offense was really moving through him for a lot of the game. And it seemed like he was playing pretty unselfishly. Lots of drives to the baskets and kick outs to an open man.
Hopefully KU can stay in the top ten, because I think they suck and we're going to romp them again.
Whos minutes is he going to take? Better players in front of him and he looks lost on the court.
Best thing i saw tonight was Zoran bolting off the bench to help Jacobson up after he went down going into a media timeout.
These guys like each other. No one seems to be an odd man out.
