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

We’re probably a FF team last year had we been able to afford Williams.

And absolutely loaded this year
 
My prediction is when your entire team is shooting 40% on three-pointers, driven largely by one guy shooting 50% who is a career ~40% shooter, you are shooting out of your a$$ and are due for a regression to the mean.
I agree. Especially when they'll be facing the toughest D (ISU's) they've seen to date.
 
Tech shoots almost 40% from 3 as a team and I’m concerned about that part of our D. I like us in a shootout though if it’s relatively close at the end.
I think we’re going to make hay inside, but I hope we’re not trading threes for twos.
 
Spent the morning trying to see the path where we win this. I hope I am wrong but I think we come up a bit short. Shoe is on the other foot now, we are consistently the hunted. I imagine if the roles were reversed and TT was coming in ranked #3 to Ames with a solid ISU team looking to keep up with top of the league - In that case I would take ISU.

In this case

TTU 81
ISU 75
