They took out the risers & chairs & put in pull out bleachers. Then they put a damn fence in front of them. I'm not a fan.
That’s it. Thanks.
I guess I preferred the original as the fans seemed to be “on the court”. But, I’m sure they had there reasons.

That's when you know it;s going good. Gabe miss. Still get 2 on offensive rebound by Bock. Two by Bobby!

I suspect Gabe playing against his old Minnesota teammate Carr has a little extra motivation

Looks like a common trend at other places (?).

I prefer 90's style with the most bonkers fans in the lower section all around the court, haha.

Kunc needs to do a better job of angling when moving horizontally to defend. Just too easy to get those blocking calls against him.

Saw this:

ISU has a top-20 home court advantage according to KenPom, yet is actually 62nd in personal foul advantage. 9th out of 10 teams in the Big 12. “Hilton Magic” is not the reffing advantage many say it is.

Their biggest advantage? Non-steal turnovers, meaning the shot clock violations, 5-second calls, half-court violations, etc. I think fans undeniably play a role in that. The magic isn’t some officiating advantage, it’s the people.

This team is just so much fun to watch. I have come to the conclusion that all of our players are going to have some great games and some bad games. The one thing that they do every game is try their hardest. So proud of the heart of this team.
