Well good win for the boys last night, every win on the road is always nice

TCU really has only 1 good Big 12 win and that's over Baylor

I think that TCU though has been struggling on the road lately.

My Prediction
TCU 71
Iowa State 83

Iowa State moves to 8-3 in the conference and then next Saturday At Kansas State

We are going to have to guard the pick and roll really well in this game, or they can keep it close. TCU is just odd this year. All the pieces appear to be there, but it's just not working for them for whatever reason.
Well, they are missing their point guard. Name escapes me.

I like that they have 5 days off till TCU and then will have a week off till the KSU road game. Should help to stay fresh.

Prohm said after the game that the rest would be nice to rest NWB. Makes me wonder if he's totally over his knee/back issues, or just a bit tired at this point in the season since he plays so many minutes and is primarily responsible for running the team.

Either way, may be a good time for all the players to recharge. Still, wouldn't mind a shorter rest period as Lard/Wigg seem to be hitting their strides.

thank goodness for Wiggington last night, or ISU may have been stomped last night. Lard also made a few big plays.

I think the starting 5 is top 4 Big 12 quality, but the drop off after that is significant.

Alex Robinson is good, but Kuoat Noi is fun to watch. He’s going to be a pain for a few years to come.

He's leading the team and the Big 12 in minutes now.

He passed Haliburton during the Texas game.

I know he had a blah game last night, but the guy is an underappreciated warrior.

79-70 on Barttovik right now
80% win expectation

We need this one, of course, to win the Big 12.

TCU scares me more on the road than at home, but this is not going to be an easy game, either. None of the games remaining on our schedule are gimmes right now.

That can definitely make a difference if their talent on the floor is going down when they sub and ours may actually go up sometimes (at the very least there is no drop off).
