I will be in attendance today, never seen the Cyclones win a game away from Ames so I’m apologizing for when this inevitably goes south

Iowa State 65, KSU 52. KSU players have given up on the season; Otz is still furious at the cheating allegations. Tang won’t address the allegations he made against ISU in the post game. Fans get even more livid with Tang

If you are attending the game, I’d like a report on the interaction or lack there of between Tang & Otz before tip off. Unless Tang makes an attempt to humbly address his lying antics from the previous encounter with Otz, I don’t anticipate anything but a cold shoulder extended to the coaching staff at KState.

If the message boards are any indication the K-State fans do not care about this game at all. That doesn't necessarily speak to the motivation of their team, but I think it can definitely be a barometer of the type of atmosphere we can expect. I'm guessing with spring break on top of it we can expect the Octogon of Doom to be more like the Octogon of Meh.

This one is hard to predict. I know what Iowa State is going to try and do, I just have no clue what is in KSU's heads today. I do believe that Jerome Tang's motivational efforts probably ring hollow with the Wildcats at this point. 65-58 Cyclones victory. Player of the game guess: Tre King.

this is going to be a tough one for 3 reasons. One, KSU has this one circled on their calendar. They want this game really really bad. Two, we played late Weds night, KSU played Tuesday, they will have an extra day of rest. Three, both Tamin and Gilbert are playing hurt. So, we have a lot working against us going into this game, but this team has shown a lot of toughness and resilience all year so let's hope they have some more of that left.
Number one is a wash. You don’t think we have had this circled after what tang did? Come on.

Anyone know how to stream the game on either ESPN app or sling (I have both) while traveling? Down in Mexico right now and neither app will work.
If you have Espn2 on your sling account, go to espn app and log in using your sling credentials.

I'm not convinced they have it circled. Their fanbase sure doesn't. I guess it comes down to if the coaches and players believe their own bs that we actually cheated. If they don't they should be embarrassed about what happened in the last game.

This one is hard to predict as others have said:

K-state may have it circled on the calendar but, I promise you, so do we (players, coaches and fans alike)

We are dealing with injuries and offensive short circuits but, maybe the motivation of playing K-state and the issues last game are just what the doctor ordered.

It would be nice to rest some guys the last 10 minutes but, I don't see that in the cards today.

In a late game situation, I trust TJ and staff. ISU 66 K-State 64 Curtis Jones with the winning basket with under a minute left.

Yeah, if KSU started spring break today I would expect a much smaller student crowd. Maybe not a huge deal, but every little bit ...
74-64 Cyclones

ISU's offensive problems continue, KSU 69 ISU 58. I'm always wrong so ISU will win! Thank me tomorrow for the jinx!!
It doesn't work that way. You can't say that it's a Jinx. You have to actually think they're going to lose

Milan finding some space a getting his 3 pt shot back would 100% cure the offense right now. Hopefully he finds that against a less than all-in KSU team today.

Teams that try to play the same grind it out style as us don't have much luck unless you are an analytical unicorn like Houston. KSU is not Houston.
