*** Official #12 IOWA STATE vs #17 BYU Game(Day) Thread ***

Shout out to the Cyclone fan at P&L right now that's wearing a "Hello My Name Is..." tag, filled out with SLOB

 

[Remo Gaggi]

I know it’s not his fault, but he’s got one of the most punchable faces in the world.

My thoughts exactly.

Do away with conference tournaments and have the selection committee choose auto bids based on regular season conference standings. Then, have the bubble teams/not high enough in regular season standings play in a big play-in tournament to leads into the ncaa tournament.

Nah. One thing that's fun about basketball is that in march theoretically anyone can go on a run. Like NC State last year.

Except for the bottom 3 teams in the Big 10.

Hoping for no more injuries. Clones win a thriller 75-72

Yeah, and I think that's a garbage decision by the big 10

Good lord, why would you want to do away with something that is fun for Iowa State and its fans? It reminds me of the time Paul Clark (who used to run an Iowa State website) said that Iowa State shouldnt' talk about Hilton Magic since we were above it.

Absolutely hate it too. One of my favorite things thing about CBB, unlike CFB, was that ever had the opportunity to win the NC.

Keshon not dressed and looks really wishful he could play. Has to be so difficult!

I watched some highlights of last year/early this year and it made my heart sink. Just seeing a couple clips of him getting to the rim last year made it clear how much he's been hampered lately and given his status as a senior, it just really makes me feel for him.

I didn’t see a report of the injury, is it a knee?

I thought someone posted about a brace yesterday?

 

[CoachHines3]

this game doesnt mean much in the grand scheme of things

winning it doesnt improve your seed line, losing it doesnt hurt your seed.

whats more important is having a healthy gilbert/lipsey for next Friday.

 

[RezClone]

Tamin loves ISU.

For Keshon? Lingering leg/knee/groin thing I believe, iirc sometime in like January he kinda came up hobbled and that would fit the timeline of his play falling off.

Watching him yesterday was painful. He could barely move and had zero explosiveness.

Feel bad for him.

Curtis starting instead of Tamin.
