*** Official #8 IOWA STATE vs #5 Houston Game(Day) Thread ***

[ScottyP]

Every call went Houston’s way

 

[scottwv]

Houston made good adjustments - Jefferson running the offense did not work late in the game

 

[NYCYFan]

Without their top two scorers, some real bad calls that went against them, 10-17 from 3 by Houston and still had a chance to win. Can't be anything but really encouraged by the trajectory of this team headed into March.

 

[FerShizzle]

Pounding inside lately didn’t work

ya. it was ******* stupid.

 

[Drew0311]

Houston is not as good as I thought

 

[Cyinthenorth]

Heise has been a dawg today. Superb effort.

I mean, he got worked by Cryer. Absolutely worked. But it was also kind of a career day type of thing for Cryer,a tip your hat kind of effort. I did like what Heise gave us on offense

 

[JP4CY]

They didn't quit.
Completely outgunned and they really showed us a lot.

 

[Malone]

We covered! This is why I don’t gamble

Seriously impressive effort

 

[cincinnaticyclone]

****. ****. God damn it. Piss.

 

[jspeels]

Houston fans celebrating like they just beat our best team! Lol

 

[Cyhig]

Defense was amazing today. You just can’t defend step back 3’s. And Houston made a ton of those.

And Heise has really started to play well lately. He will be a huge boost for the tournaments

So proud of the team. I feel a lot better about March now.

 

[Cardinal2001]

go away doomersn that was heroic!

 

[cal-cyclone]

Refs really trying to take the ball away from us in any way possible today.
That Heise foul (where he gets elbowed din the face) which ended up a s a 3 for Cryer was my losing it point with saying these refs aren't putting their finger on the game at least a littel bit.

 

[clone1990]

They won’t shoot like this the rest of the season

It seems we always draw a shooter that is on fire.

 

[CyGuy5]

The fact that Houston needed all the help they could get to beat an Iowa State team that had to give Cade Kelderman minutes is impressive

 

[fsanford]

Of course. What is the spread in this game?

ISU covered game was closer than last year

 

[Cupped]

Can't wait to get AZ at home, WV and Houston in KC and Auburn in March! Things will be different!

 

[MR82]

Great effort from this group! Houston didn’t cover.

 

[RagingCloner]

Houston is not as good as I thought

I dont understand this comment. Why cant it ever be we are just that good?

 

[ScottyP]

I think Houston hit every step back three
