*** Official Kansas State vs #7 IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

[CloneLawman]

The remainder of KSU's season is entirely dependent upon this game. What are we playing for? Not expecting a big win, but I've certainly been wrong before. Hope I'm wrong again.

Only the ISU players can answer that. They're the ones playing.

 

[Cyched]

Hate to admit it, but I took KSU +7.5.

Probably not a bad bet, I'd guess on a 4-5 point game either way.

If we win by 8 or more I'll be in a good mood.

 

[bosco]

Hate to admit it, but I took KSU +7.5.

I thought about it too but when it moved back up and given our history after losses and a gut feeling I took us at 7.5. i feel like it's a 10 pt win... I'm wrong a lot though.

 

[Cycsk]

Spent the morning with a KU relative. He made me promise to try to start an NIT chant after the game today.

NIT NIT NIT.

 

[madguy30]

The team needs a good offensive game to get it's confidence back but holy crap not nearly as much as this fan base does.

I'd bet there were a lot of little things that film showed and some rest and 'fix-it' steps taken to put it together in a game but I think the team really lives in their own world which is good.

K-State is my stopgap most hated team in the league with OU and Texas' unofficial departure from Big 12 sports. At least until Utah gets here, who seem like they will slide seamlessly into the void left by OuT.

Save a space for BYU. You'll get there.

 

[Klubber]

Really don't like this spot for ISU. K-State is desperate to keep their tourney hopes alive. We're banged up and just lost to them. Plus we are maybe playing to keep a 2 seed, but probably will still be in Omaha regardless. Hope I'm wrong, but I expect another clunker.

I'm the opposite. A little rest is what we needed. I expect a focused effort and think we'll run these guys tonight after such a piss-poor effort in Manhattan.

Seriously, it has been 10 years???

Kansas (State) must be destroyed.

One of my favorite traits of TJ as a coach. It’s frustrating not to see him get after the officials in some games like we want him to, but because of his cam cool collected demeanor you can tell the team follows suit in not getting to high or low after losses or frustrating outings.

You think Keshon comes back with a game changing and-1 in Orlando after a rough first 35 mins if these coaches allowed pouting and emotional outbursts?

TJ wants to show that integrity matters.

 

[RezClone]

I wanted this matchup. Still have a sour taste from their whiny coach.

 

[Jimbo ISU]

I expect Iowa State to take down Kansas State today as we get benefit from the rest advantage. I just don't think they'll be able to get us in back-to-back games. I don't understand the notion that this is not a big game for ISU, it's a very big game to me. I would like to win as many games as possible simply because winning is great and losing sucks.

I definitely think Tre, BRE, and Hasan in particular, want to play as many more college games as they can?

Don't let those who shrug their shoulders fool you. It's a big game for them just as it is for you, me....the ISU coaches and players.

And I hope you are correct about the rest advantage. Because if KSU does win.......then out the window goes the "tired" excuse those ISU fans with KSU having played back to back. And that might just send many a CFer into therapy.
