I hope Fran is calling our game

Win tonight and ISU is only team in basketball this year to have (3) top 10 wins...(2) on the road...

That type of win is seed altering...and I’m talking from a 5 seed to 3 seed type altering or higher..

We match up really well with KU...if they go bigger then bring it..we will too.

Win tonight and Des Moines is back in play.

Tyrese with "knucks" for the Cy statue at the airport. Nice. Like this guy more all the time.

Did you see him pretending to high five his imaginary teammates during his late free throws! lol Easily a fan favorite

I'm not sure KU will be in the top 10 any longer when it tips off tonight.

3 point stance on CF says KU sucks at shooting 3s....so look for like a 60% clip tonight for the Selfies.

 

[CascadeClone]

It's all about how KU reacts to losing at WV, and their season looking down vs usual.

They could come back fired up and focused. Or they could go in the tank with "woe-is-us".

Let's hope for the latter.

I’ll be at the game tonight. The only other game I attended in AFH was a win for us so hope we’re 2-0 after tonight!

Same situation here. 2's are wild tonight. Cam will go off beginning in the second minute of the second half. A second win of the season against KU.

I don't think you completely pack it in or they can get very hot, especially at home. I'm sure we'll shade toward helping in the paint while keeping in range to guard the perimeter. We've been very good in that regard in most games this year. Plus, it wasn't CW that said it, so we should be fine.

 

[HFCS]

I remember her previous ISU-bashing tweets - she was all about the “#boobirds” hashtag.

Someone needs to record all the times KU fans boo tonight and send it to her.

You can tell when KU fans will boo...it's every second of every game they are behind in.

Hopefully we hear a lot of their booing.

This is gonna be good.
Kansas must be destroyed.

 

[madguy30]

Anyone else concerned that this team is having fun during the shoot around?

You almost get the feeling that maybe they're not even concerned with how many minutes they're getting because they support each other and all have the same goal.

Toughest game left on our schedule?

 

[Jerms]

It’s great to be a Cyclone now. Between the two major sports:

Football with 2 weeks to go, 4 teams in running for conference championship: Oklahoma, Texas, ISU, WVU.

Men’s basketball 1/3 into season with 4 way tie for first: Texas Tech, Kansas, ISU, KSU.

We’re only one in both. 3 are in neither.

Concerned? No.
Excited? Yes.

I’m confident Lard and Wigginton can be just as efficient tonight as they were on Saturday. If we get that kind of scoring from them both off the bench, we win this one. ISU has a good chance in this one!
