*** Official #24 IOWA STATE vs #20 BYU Game(Day) Thread ***

[fsanford]

No, you are correct. They kept their starters in and kept jacking up threes. Come to Hilton, BYU.....see you there.

It's about metrics, and thing is most coaches leave starters in a long time these days

 

[Cytown12]

Have you watched Omaha at all?

Can you not tell he has no idea what is going on at either end of the floor yet?

He won't improve by getting thrown in a game where he is over his head.

I’m sure sitting on the bench really does a lot, and rather him get some minutes then watch Jones do nothing but miss shots and play terrible defense.

 

[ISUTex]

They are like Iowa. Very white and very whiny. It felt like we got depantsed by a Fran team tonight

They would beat Iowa by 40.

 

[Cyinthenorth]

Waterman is my new most hated player.

I also disliked the whiny point guard Hall.

 

[CycloneErik]

Maybe you are right, and that was worse. But this game is the closest thing I have felt to the Prohm era since the Prohm era.

You're really, really reaching here. We got basketballed tonight. These games happen.

Time to re-watch the game.

Iowa State at BYU….

Football, that is.

 

[Prone2Clone]

That’s one bad thing about TJ he’s not good at adjustments or just refuses to do any of that.

I have to put my money on refusal for whatever reason. Practically everybody on this board was concerned about giving BYU open threes. You would think most coaches would tweak the defense at least a little going into this one.

 

[atlantacyclone]

These guys need to figure out how to win outside of Ames …

 

[Cyinthenorth]

They would beat Iowa by 40.

Yah, this year. Sure. I'm talking about the Iowa teams with Murray's and Garza.

Not a bad idea. I still have it on DVR.

I'm OK with BYU sitting right after Kansas on a hated list. I think they'll earn it.

One would think that but I guess not TJ

 

[CYDJ]

Well, that was fun. What an ass kicking.

This is not the first ass kicking we have endured and it will not be the last. Pretty much like ALMOST every other team in the world (outside of a very few.)

Just have to savor the wins and try to not get too low from a loss.

Go State!

 

[cyclo120]

Not going to overreact to losing on the road to BYU. But where do we get offense from this team to win games on the road in the Big 12?

 

[cincinnaticyclone]

I’m sure sitting on the bench really does a lot, and rather him get some minutes then watch Jones do nothing but miss shots and play terrible defense.

You don’t understand, if he had played more tonight, we might’ve lost by 20 instead of 15.

 

[Darius Bieber]

Unfortunately, the transfers we brought in have been underwhelming so far to say the least

 

[CYDJ]

I’m not sure we are allowed to whine about that. We’ve played starters real late in blowouts plenty.

Maybe that is the thing now. You need the blowouts to impress the computers. It does seem that that sportsmanship ship has sailed. I don't really like that either way. But, it is what it is.

Keshon has been good. He makes dumb decisions too often but he’s good.

 

[Cyinthenorth]

You're really, really reaching here. We got basketballed tonight. These games happen.

I really don't think there is a better example in the TJ era of aimless offense holding hands with hapless defense quite like what we saw tonight. Has a TJ led ISU team ever given up 87 in regulation?

 

[Sobchakcyclone]

Waterman is my new most hated player.

No, it's Johnson and his twelve wives. The guy's 26 years old?? Really? How old are the others?
