Would be great to jump on someone from the start and keep the boot on the throat to the final horn. But our history in Lubbock is not too superlative, and they've proven themselves capable at home, so it will likely be close.

Cautiously taking the Clones, 72-68.

I think we win in the 5-10 range because I like Niang at the 5 with a week of practice. I think we look more like we did back in Babb's day with Thomas taking Gotcher. I tend to forget how good Niang is with the paint to himself. In fact I'll also say that this helps us down the road with Niang remembering how to do it and Prohm seeing how effective it is when McKay needs a rest.

It seems like TT plays us close no matter where we play. Can anybody recall the last time we put it to them? And was Tubby the coach?

We beat them 75-38 last season in Ames.

67-61 good guys...a tough somewhat sloppy game where we lead throughout and make enough plays to hang on late...much like the OSU game.

Iowa State NEVER hits 3's worth a **** in Lubbock. NEVER! And by never, I mean NEVER!

Look at the scores down there from the last like 5 years. ISU plays putridly down in that rat hole of a arena/town.

I'll be happy if they win by 1.

I hate when the team plays at Tech and have a terrible feeling bout this game. My gut is pretty ******* stupid, so ISU will probably roll.
