They really need to fix the tie up calls. You shouldn’t be able to dive on top of a guy, hook the leg and then roll him over.
That stupid crap gets called horribly all the time. Or the hug from behind. Officials these days are just consistently incompetent. They let reputation and crowds determine the call.

Good effort by the guys. Let's kick some Jayhawk ass next.

Count me as in the minority for a fan of the color guy. He has been complemental of ISU in the past and didn't hear any Tech bias today.

I could only listen, but it was painful to hear all of those turnovers from being double-teamed. Sounds like we weren't prepared at all for that, and we didn't adjust either.

To be honest, most of the second half was pretty painful. We were cut through like butter on the defensive end, so many layups and dunks. I know we're shorthanded, but damn...

Team really ran out of gas in the 2nd half. Kind of obvious that would happen given our lack of depth at this point.

I'd just like ESPN to schedule one non biased commentator. This guy acts like Tech is some sort of ******* blue blood. It is bad enough losing but having to listen to this smug piece of **** makes it worse.
Said every other team the past 5 years when Fran did one of our games.

Score finally reflects how the game felt.

Only real hot take on this is that the things that are generally not good like taking the ball in with no actual plan or play off of it haven't gone away when there's no evidence that it's something that works.

We’re undermanned, don’t have anything close to a pg, and don’t play well, but the refs are horribly inconsistent. Confirmation bias is a huge problem with college refs.
