Tix were cheap to the WI game.

I've never been to an NIT game but it sounds kinda anti-climactic.

Good for the players to get some more time together though.

I've been to the ISU ones, it's fun because it's ISU hoops in Hilton

Rutgers trying to be first four out twice in a week

Starting the Big10's rough week off early.

Wouldn't be at all surprised if they start post season play off at 1-2 tonight.

Anybody else streaming using the March Madness Live app? This is a cool app but would be nice to get the studio commentary on between games.

Didn't we end up playing iowa in Hilton in the NIT?

 

[bradcyclone]

The Mississippi State head coach is a native Iowan, I had no idea he was.

Yep. Lost by 1

Before Prohm's 2019 team lost to them, it was the last time we lost to them in Hilton for awhile.

Also fired for groping women at bars. Just a quality dude.

Already pretty sure I want Pitt from watching the first four minutes

MSU hitting 3's which isn't their MO

 

[bradcyclone]

When did Pittsburgh decide to go black and gold from their blue and gold?

 

[NoCreativity]

Lol, Mississippi State is the worst 3 point shooting team in college basketball and they come out and drain 4 already.

I don’t really care after watching the first few minutes. The thing that is glaringly obvious is that the entirety of Big 12 basketball is at a different level of intensity than every other league outside of a few select matchups in the Big 10 and ACC. If we bring that intensity we can handle either one about the same.

 

[isufbcurt]

Airball 3 by MSU, that's more like it

 

[bradcyclone]

No field goals in 5 minutes?

 

[Gunnerclone]

Both teams look pretty winded there. Finally a foul.

 

[CycloneBamaFan]

We should beat either Pitt or Miss St. However, we have to play at our high level and not play their game or let them set the tempo.

Pitt’s defense is noticeably worse than Baylor’s, and their offense isn’t as good either. Mississippi State at least defends

 

[CySmurf]

The more I watch this game, the more confident I am that Iowa State will beat either one of these teams.

Youre thinking of the steelers. And pirates. And penguins.

Pitt Panthers have always been blue and gold.

 

[isufbcurt]

I would have really liked to have Hinson's offensive ability on our team
