My bad kiddo, I'm perfectly calm. If you're not a kid, how old are you? You apparently had your mom bring you for a haircut or something recently, so if you're an adult... lol.

I'm not going to throw out my age, but I am in college. That should say enough. I'm an adult under government law.
Is that where you really studied?
Too bad the Hackeye station 13 even admitted that this game was over at halftime.
Iowa is on its way to being the 4th best team in the state.
Denial is not JUST a river in Eygpt, just ask any Hackeye.
One comment I heard at the game last night: BRING BACK ALFRED!
IOWA IS SWIMMING UP STREAM JUST LIKE A SALMON WITH PREDICTABLE RESULTS.

One of the more lopsided wins I've seen in this series. We clearly were the better team despite what I thought was a mediocre offensive and defensive night for ISU. Drives me me buggy when we take a outside shot and nobody crashes the board for a rebound(and we owned Iowa in that area depsite that). Ref's called it way too tight the entire game. At least they evenly distributed bad calls.
Love watching Frannie get upset on the side lines. He's really good at getting mad, but not sure how well it helps his team out in the end.
I like our talent level, but seems like we lose focus at times. Oh well. My gauge of how good the team is the Fizer/Tinsley years as that's the best basketball ISU ever played. We're not there yet, but heading the right direction.:v_SPIN: Just hope Fred is a true cross of Johnny Orr and Tim Floyd. If he is, we have nothing to worry about long term!

It'd be very close. Look at Colorado last year.
11-4 non-conference
10-9 conference (counting B12 tournament)
On a trip for a couple days and couldn't see this one. If I have time I'm checking Espn 3 replay.
I will provide some expert analysis afterward.

I made it about 8 minutes into the second half. Games that are officiated this way are unwatchable.
It isn't that it's too ticky-tack, or that it's uneven — the types of calls are inconsistent, and it's called noticeably tighter than the first half, with little change in how the game was played.

Sigh...
He was wrong. Not because I think that Iowa State is very good at this point, but because it was obvious that Fred was trying different stuff. The game was never in doubt. Everytime the hawks got within shouting distance, when there was actual time left on the clock, Iowa State stretched it back pretty quickly.
We need to be able to do other stuff when teams double Royce, and take him away from the offense. This was a time to do than, and Fred did.
And I am interested that after only 27 posts, you comment on this...
The first half was the best basketball that ISU has played all season, and they didn't even though Allen was in foul trouble.
The second half they came out a little sluggish but it was good they withstood the challenge.
The last 7 minutes or so was really sloppy. They need to work on how to break presses. There were a lot ot stupid decisions like passing it to a guy in the corner and then the guy would stop and get trapped. Also, Bubu really needs to work on his free throw shooting. They game would never have gotten that close he could have hit a few more free throws.
Scotty and Ejim: best games of the season.

iowa Sucks. I love it.
They are right where they belong, the bottom of the Big 10. I look forward to seeing them finish there for many-many more years.
Iowa Is Horrible. But so is Iowa State. good thing is the clones could be so much better, and hopefully with time they will be.
I have never seen a team walk up and down the court so much, it is ridiculous and guys need to start getting benched for it. I would rather see guys act like they want to be in there. Props to Bubu and Mcgee for actually giving a xxxx and playing hard.
If they don't figure out how to find the open man on the press really quick we are screwed. we could have had so many 3 on 1 or 3 on 2 fast breaks out of the press if they would just look down the court.
If you can't beat iowa's crappy zone defense we are in trouble. Reverse the ball and use the baseline!
Can't believe we suck so bad at free throws.
I know Fred is trying to teach these guys this stuff, and I think he probably figured they would already know it since they should have learned it in high school, but Cmon Man.
If you are going to suck at all these crucial phases of the game, you should at least hustle! Hate seeing them just mope around. It drives me crazy. Good thing it was Iowa we were playing because other teams are going to convert 4 on 1 and 3 on 2 fast breaks every time.
I hope to see Fred keep shaking up the lineup because right now we have to many content guys playing half a**.
Hope to see some Hustle and Go State!
Yea what you said here might just be a tad bit overblown. Take a few deep breaths everything is going to be okay :smile:
