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

[tim_redd]

GG clones, tough circumstances, didn't get any breaks today, but showed some heart. Heal up and be ready for next week.

I don’t get how BYU ever loses with the way they shot

They don't always shoot like that.

 

[Stumbles]

21-12 on fouls and we had nearly double points in the paint. That doesn't really make sense.

That a team that shoots threes at the rate they do gets such a large disparity at the line

They were playing the guards right all day

 

[BigLame]

All these people on here were hating on Utah, while BYU is the real one to hate

There's enough to go around

5th foul on Heise was a a con job.
BYU got away with everything including travels, double dribbles, bumping and no call, these refs are a joke.

 

[ChickenNuggetMan]

Bad officiating, but also bad turnovers as usual. Without 2 starters there’s not much we can do.

 

[1TwistedCyclone]

Someone explain how this tithing thing works?

 

[clone1990]

I mean...Keshon and Tamin would've shot about 100 free throws today if the game was called similar to the fouls we're getting whistled for...we just don't have anyone who can create like they do.

We shot 7 FTs the entire game.

Bench was the difference

 

[Cyballz]

BYU will lose to the first team they run into that has a dominant post player or who actually whistles them fairly on defense.

They get KU-in-Adidas-Fieldhouse levels of officiating for some reason.

There's a reason they haven't won a tourney game in 10+ years. When you have to rely on shooting out of your ass and don't play defense you get bounced

 

[CoachHines3]

lets get a little R & R

look forward to being a #3 in Milwaukee

 

[Stumbles]

Man…I wanted that one for those guys.

Yeah, can't fault the effort. Win for Tamin and Keshon would have been legendary

Heise had 2 or 3 phantom fouls.

Sucks to lose but man this team really needs to rest. Say we made it to Saturday but then lost another dude to injury. Focus on the big dance.

This team has to have been one of the highest ceiling but most unlucky in ISU history....hopefully the breaks go our way next week.

Well no ****. We didn’t have a bench.

 

[ForbinsAscynt]

Totally fine with this. Might think differently if I went to KC but let’s get excited for our draw and rattle off a few wins with a healthy Tamin

Saunders would have gotten a T for that flop in the first half. It was that bad.

 

[RagingCloner]

IMO, im more okay with this loss if we are all healthy next week. Good to see Jackson and Jefferson find their grooves before the big tourney. Heres to hoping we are in Dukes region

 

[jsb]

How worried should I be about Tamin for next week?

 

[CascadeClone]

I grabbed BYU -4.5 on an alt line at +200 midgame.

DJ killed me with the last second putback lol.
