What will a loss tonight do to our chances for playing at home for the first round of the tournamen, especially since the ******* squawks probably will get to play in IC?

Nothing, locked into first two rounds in Ames

Ash 3-18, 0-8 from 3. Officials aside, that’s just not gonna get it done.

This reminds me of watching us play Texas in football a decade ago, takes about 3 seconds to realize our athletes are not on that level.

FYI when the brackets come out just cross your fingers we get a bracket filled with a bunch of finesse teams that are filled with guard play.

 

[goody2012]

So is this team just the "best of the rest" outside the top teams? I.e ceiling of Elite 8 at best

How does Baylor have 3 conference losses?

They are significantly better than us.

2 of them came very early in the conference season

No way we miss out on home games. They want schools hosting who can draw a crowd.

Sad

Nothing to do with that, this is a top 4 seed no matter what happens rest of way

 

[jctisu]

Baylor making more three’s than us equals no chance in hell to win.

 

[goody2012]

Baylor +2.5 was free money

Think we would need to get a pretty favorable bracket to get to the Elite 8. That or we just go nuts making 3's.

We have played 1 game within 10 points in Big 12 play. If you take out the fluke week with covid issues, and the refs allowing a wrestling match to break out on the basketball court at Texas, this team has been incredibly good. There is no reason to say certain things have to go perfect for us to have a chance. If a wrestling match breaks out, we are in trouble. But short of that this team can ho hum their way to a victory, or play perfect and dominate. I believe, and we all should this far into the season.

Still disagree?

She's having to do it all by herself while getting physically assaulted every trip down the lane.

She is simply too slow and physically not strong enough for Baylor. It’s not the refs.

 

[TheJackWePack5]

Baylor is just on another level.

Disappointing result for such a hyped up game.

 

[CY9008]

Billy said on CW’s pod they were going to change up the D to limit Baylor 3’s…ummm

I've watched several girls games but am no expert. Kinda seems like we rely heavily on Joens, Ryan and Donarski to dribble around and make things happen. Against most teams that's probably good but Baylor is too big and athletic.

 

[ISU_Guy]

alright.....new plan.

try and get a good ticket score and under 20 point loss.

Does the Women’s game have a flop warning? Because if so it should definitely have already come out against Bickell. Two no calls where she slid 5 feet from the point of “contact”
