I have feeling the Refs are going to make some messed up call to affect the outcome of this game.

Same game. Same issues. Same great effort on defense. Same struggles on offense. Same Tech defense which is relentless. Until Tyrese can make 3's they can help on everyone else. Enaruna needs to develop a better around the basket midrange game. As soon as I think we should be setting more on-ball screens for Brockington, the announcers reminded me how Tech just blows those up. I'm at a loss. Basketball gurus....how do you beat this defense??????
Attack yet still protect the ball and make more free throws is all I got.

Amazes me when I watch other college games and seems like everyone has at least one guy who can make an open three with efficiency but it's a mystery for us.
These guys are playing their asses off in this game. I don’t understand the negative comments directed at some of our own players by our fan base tonight. They deserve our support not our criticism.
Well it's really problematic when they don't call fouls - freedom of movement is dead.
Yeah, said the same a bit ago. Points are precious and there will be fouls.
Games like this frustrate me as if we could string together a couple plays, we could be handling them.
Somebody sim the 1990 Loyola-Marymount Hank Gathers/Bo Kimble team (122 ppg) and this version of the Cyclones and see what happens.
Gonna need Grill to hit some big 3s in the second half.
Winning the battle on the boards. Keep that up and cut down on the turnovers will get us a win IMO.
Refs are letting a lot go until Tech takes it to the basket. We should do the same

At least it looks like if Jazz flops in this game they will call a foul and not a tech warning.
Quick ball reversal. Need to hit the three. That shot will be open if tech pressures and clones can swing the ball.
another way would be to dump the ball into a competent post player.
I don’t know what the season stats say, but I feel most comfortable with Grill taking the 3’s.
I think some folks see a different type of player for ISU than what they really have.
They've never been strong on offense and that's not going to change especially against a team like Tech who's on a redemption tour after Saturday.
Playing their assess of has gotten them this far and they'll stay the course which is really great.
