*** Official IOWA STATE vs #4 Texas Game(Day) Thread ***

[Rural]

Down ten is a minor miracle considering it was 20 minutes of pretty much going right through us.

I get it. But we are just playing a ******* murderer's row right now. Very few teams EVER have had to start the season with so many top 10 teams on the road.

If I remember correctly our first conference game was at home against KState. Pretty sure they aren't a top 10 team.

I said on the road.

Well, first, the season isn't over. Second, the priority should be making Campbell as happy as we can. Third, we've played consistently better since that Kansas State game.

I’ll agree with that

 

[NENick]

Solid rebuttal.
My only point is there's a game going on, played decently for a while, outmanned, but nothing so far seems to be negatively affected by coaching. Maybe wait until it does or until postgame or go to one of the myriad Fire Prohm threads.

Just following on my action app right now. Regretting taking isu -12.5

Nobody misses more dunks than Bolton

You miss a hundred percent of the dunks you don't take.

 

[NENick]

Not expecting a win, but they took control when Solo and Bolton went out with 2 fouls. Don't get a third early in the 2nd half and maybe keep it close. Relatively

 

[Rabbuk]

It's my fault. I tuned in and we were up 13-8. It was all downhill from there. Sorry.

did you say "Stop the count"?

 

[Big_Sill]

This zone must stop

 

[exCYtable]

Seriously, where is the hope here? I'd be fine if I thought this team was going to be great again in 2 or even 3 years. THERE IS NO HOPE. I'd take Darian DeVries in a heartbeat right now.

 

[CYDJ]

Good spurt there by the good guys. Not laying down quite yet.

Honestly, we'd probably be able to get him dirt cheap and have nobody else calling for him for a few years too, barring some incredible turnaround. It's not the worst idea I've ever heard. That said, it's still a useless convo until postseason.

Hope is believing without knowing.

I am getting some hope in that these guys appear to care right now. That's better than last year.

cylinder, c'mon, just obvious. You have to call those. Bad missed call.

 

[Go2Guy]

Why have people been down on Johnson. He played well vs Iowa and BAY and has 18 tonite - hitting Treys. You don't like his D?

He doesn't have 18.

 

[Go2Guy]

He doesn't have 18.

Yeah, 16. He sucks

 

[Drew0311]

I would be more behind Prohm if we were playing freshman and getting beat every game. I could make the excuse. However, our freshman are not even good enough to get any playing time on a team that loses all the time. So how good are they actually?

Eric and John agree with you.
