*** Official #3 IOWA STATE vs Arizona Game(Day) Thread ***

[AllInForISU]

So with 2 seconds fans want us to foul a good FT shooter who can make the first and miss the second, so the guy that has 75 offensive rebounds tonight can clean it up and put it back rather than have a guy shoot a 60 footer?

Apparently

 

[Dgilbertson]

You don't start dribbling out the clock at 1:30 up by 3 and yes I do, foul, always foul.

What level you coach at my guy? Put in an application and teach these boys how to learn.

 

[tim_redd]

And you can't do it when the referees have let physical play go all night. You know they aren't blowing the whistle so don't try to play into whistles.

Guys have to better understand how the game is being called and adjust.

 

[Jnecker4cy]

Too bad. We had that one. Chalk it up move on do not let that cause a 2nd loss.

I would have either missed that last free throws, or fouled. But easy to say that after the fact.

Go Clones

 

[JCity]

Not fouling, up by 3 with 2.2 seconds left, is coaching malpractice. What a stupid ending to a stupid game

People can dumb this all they want but it's 100% true.

 

[RagingCloner]

Man, both us and Kansas fans are gonna need a support group after this last week

KU had a meltdown. AZ got incredibly lucky

 

[Stumbles]

the idea is to foul before the shot or do an off the ball foul.

And if they manage to throw up a prayer and get rewarded? They made a 55ft shot. Is so low percentage

 

[CardinalGlick]

Literally the Colorado game from 2000 rerun.

 

[Kaner04]

Just the goddamn luck that takes. 1-11 from 3 making a 60 footer. Sucking all damn night. Making two more in OT. God I’m ******* pissed. We’re gonna be the number one 2 seed after this stupid ******* shot

 

[bradcyclone]

You rather lose a game like that now instead of March!

 

[awd4cy]

We can lose 2-3 more (ku and houston) and still get a 1 seed.

Not likely. Doesn’t really matter. There’s a lot of good teams to get through at the top of college basketball

 

[GTO]

Worse than the loss, Caleb Love pushing Lipsey down there at the end made my blood boil.

 

[iastatefan1]

Not really. It was always going to come down to beating Houston on their floor. This game doesn't necessarily matter all that much. It's not like we were going to go undefeated until then and this is the most likely loss after Houston. All they have to do is lose one or two games and that game will decide the conference.

Yeah I'm probably a little too pessimistic after houston lucks into a win at kansas and we luck into this loss. Just thought this team had a great shot to get it done and now it's a major uphill climb.

 

[Cyinthenorth]

**** that game. We didn'tplay well enough to win, but we were right there.

Officials had a questionable night and I hope they show up in Holtpon for a round of continuous boos. What a ****** effort by the blue too.

AND Arizona takes advantage of the home calling. Good on them. Make them wish it never happened when they come to Hilton.

They did play well enough to win... in regulation. I think the 3 quarter court heave made their d icks shrink a little bit in OT. Did not help that the refs swallowed the whistle on our end of the court either. What is a reach in foul anyway? Oh well. Let's take it out on Tang.

 

[CloneinWDSM]

JJ should’ve missed the FT on purpose.

 

[Dgilbertson]

I’m gonna process this GAME with John and Eric.

Blessings to you all. Young and old alike.

 

[SportsMan9000]

How do you not foul up 3? YOU ALWAYS FOUL UP 3

 

[RagingCloner]

Not fouling, up by 3 with 2.2 seconds left, is coaching malpractice. What a stupid ending to a stupid game

So you foul a 85% FT shooter and hope you don’t catch him in the act of shooting?

 

[mj4cy]

I feel violated

 

[bozclone]

Crazy **** happens on the road in the Big 12. We get Arizona in Hilton 3/1, I hope we humiliate them.
