*** Official #6 IOWA STATE vs #2 Houston Game(Day) Thread ***

Glad we fought. Houston was better though.

 

[NY Chicago Fan]

That probably does it. But this Team is good. They never gave up. Just too many TOs to pull off the upset

 

[ISpyCy]

Those ******* bunny shots!

 

[ForbinsAscynt]

Dagger. Great fight

 

[cyphoon]

Houston is getting points on every trip now.

Credit to Houston they answered EVERY time we clawed close enough. Hope we can at least get this back to single digits because double digit loss won’t be indicative of this game.

 

[trevn]

Pretty easy on offense if you’re Shead. Just dribble until the refs call a foul and hit your free throws.

 

[cal-cyclone]

So much pressure on us to keep pace on offense. Houston has been shredding our def in the last few min

 

[CYDJ]

Dunk that Rob

If I remember that correctly he would have had to have gone through 2 defenders to dunk that one. Not close enough.

 

[JP4CY]

You know, you don't see many long sleeves in basketball

 

[Jeffreyisu]

Not sure I’ve seen a player take over like Shead. We couldn’t guard him with 2 guys.

**And the refs.

 

[CY88CE11]

Ugh. Gave it a good effort. Their pg just outplayed our pg by a mile. There’s your difference.

Their PG was also allowed to hang onto ours all damn game

 

[xboxfever]

Had the opportunities in the second half. Just couldn’t get over the hump. Houston might be the best the team in the country and this team went toe to toe with them twice with one win.

 

[IcSyU]

GREAT 2nd half offensive effort.

Horrific job defensively.

7/9 on 3s in a half and we've gotten outscored by 4 still is incredible for a stat.

 

[CloneLawman]

RIP in peace to whoever ends up in Houston's region...

Now we're even. They won't be playing in Houston!

 

[ISU_Guy]

Game…blouses

 

[SoleCyclone]

I know it's late but I'd put Curt Jones on Shead. Need to have length on him

 

[GTO]

Ugh. Gave it a good effort. Their pg just outplayed our pg by a mile. There’s your difference.

Well, our point guard gets fouled multiple times when he gets into the lane, so...

 

[jctisu]

Please hit a three here just to make it a half a chance.

 

[3TrueFans]

Both can be (and are) true

He doesn't control what the refs call, you play as physical as they'll let you, which is what he's doing, and he's balling tonight. You think we'd care when we have a guy drop 30 points but he pushed off on some step back 3's? **** no we wouldn't.
