5 Guarantees each game

[BigCojones]

1. There will be AT LEAST 5 fouls called on ISU that are complete horse crap calls and aren't fouls. At least one of those will be on Niang and 1 on Morris.

2. There will be at least one pass that hits Melvin square in the hands and ends up going OB or to the other team.

3. There will be a time during the game you're yelling " No Georges, No Georges, YES!

4. Niang will get called for a travel.

5. The announcers will tell us how Niang went against Noel.

I have a couple more but left it at 5

#1 happens to about every team ever.

 

[Tengel7]

Another possible point..

DeAndre Kane will take 4 stupid shots in the first half.

 

[Goothrey]

#whatever - we'll get off to a slow start for at least one half.

 

[Erik4Cy]

I can't remember seeing a player like Niang who does straight up and down almost EVERY time and gets called for fouls...I think there is just something about his look or whatever that makes refs want to blow the whistle when there aren't fouls there. It sucks knowing he basically starts every game with 1 foul. But it is also great knowing that Ejim starts every game with a double double.

Careful ---- you are dangerously close to expressing skepticism about the ISU conspiracy...

 

[Doc]

Niang has more travels that aren't called than are called.

 

[jkclone]

Niang has more travels that aren't called than are called.

Everyone does.

 

[Agclone91]

Niang has more travels that aren't called than are called.

Don't forget about the moving screens.

Almost every screen he and Ejim set could be called for an illegal pick.

 

[Daserop]

when ISU needs a win it doesn't happen.

Yeah U B rite, #1 happens to every team who is the visiting team in the big XII, most every game.

It amazes me that we don't get called for more moving screens than we do, it seems like we move every time we screen.

Go Cyclones is past time for a WIN....Beat Those Buzzards from KState!

I think the KU game was maybe the only game all year I've done #3. Niang has earned my confidence on any 2 pt attempt he takes.

I'm more likely to do the "NOOOO... well, OK he made it" on Kane and Ejim 3 pters.

LOL. I swear announcers get talking points that look surprisingly similar to this bullet list.

I agree. I never worry when Niang is driving to the hole. Ejim I worry about every time he puts it on the floor.

Has anyone ever checked to confirm that Melvin's hands are not made of brick? For an elite athlete, he has the absolute worst hands I've ever seen.

Shook his hand once...he has abnormally small hands for a guy of his size...

 

[cysox2]

His hands have gotten a lot better since his freshman year. I give him a ton of credit for coming as far as he has.
