Five points on Iowa State's win over oklahoma

[madguy30]

THT and Shayok passed up some good looks from 3 right on the catch only to take some dribbles then shoot a three with a guy in their face. Maybe both were really looking to get in the lane, which considering THT's success it's understandable. It also seemed like Shayok was trying to force the action and draw some fouls to manufacture some points on FTs. Again, makes a lot of sense considering he was struggling from the field at the time.

If ISU comes out and has a poor shooting game vs. TCU I might start to be a little worried. At this point I'm feeling pretty good about the offense.

If the looks are there and it's just not happening I'm not sure I can be worried considering what many on the team can do.

Bit of a funk lately but still scored 65 vs. Texas vs. their low tempo and 75 last night on the road. That's still good...and that 'winning' thing you and I I think noted last night (vs. last year).

Michigan State and Duke both having a tough time tonight as well. If Sparty loses this one I wonder if they lose even a 2 seed.

The zone may be the right defense to throw at us, but if we hit our shots early, it will take a coach with pecan sacks to stay in zone for an entire game.

I can't tell if people are serious anymore.

I was surprised on #5. It seemed to me that the defenses are getting more up on our guys on the perimeter versus packing it in. They also seem to be pressuring Babb more high up which is slowing down the offense.
