Just lay back and enjoy it boys. This team wasn't built to play a top 3 defense without it's top 2 scorers.

Horrible may be a little bit of an overstatement.

They certainly aren’t good, barely average on most nights. They have talent, but that doesn’t mean they are a good team. Don’t be distracted by the name on their jersey.

The only team with a pulse they beat at home was a Milan-less Iowa State team. Not exactly a gauntlet.
No I know they aren’t a good team. Just aren’t horrible. Point taken tho

I didn’t expect a win but also didn’t expect it to be this bad. Kelderman can’t create plays. Lipsey needs more minutes. Without Jackson for the rest of the first half this could get ugly.

Honestly not sure why you would expect otherwise. We're missing 30+ points\game of production, even before talking about how much that makes it easier to cover our other remaining options.

Man I wish they’d have had cameras rolling when TJ told Cade he was gonna get 15+ minutes today

They have bigger, faster, and longer athletes than us at every single position.
