I thought we would win by 10. They taught me not to be so pessimistic.
Great win overall. You could really see them become more comfortable and confident as the game went on. Definitely plenty of talent to go around on this team.

That was a great effort by that group. Forcing 25 turnovers against a Power 5 squad is impressive. Totally shocked but it was well worth the money lost on Mizzou +8 tonight. Tip of the hat to Coach Prohm as well.
ISU's players to anyone doubting what they can do this season.
Agreed. I'd be really happy with this result if we were at full strength. Given our present circumstances, I'm thrilled.
I’ll eat crow, I didn’t realize this team could play defense that well.
This experience for the freshman will be valuable down the stretch.
Can’t wait to see this team at 100% vs Kansas.

I thought it was just me that didn't know what he was talking about.
Man, I hate to tell you, but if you thought that was awful, you have pretty high expectations. Wasn’t great, but sometimes the fouls dictate the pace and they need called.
I can't wait to see when our freshman start playing more like sophomores late in the season, like around Big 12 tournament and NCAA tournament time.
Blum, how would you rate this performance by the Cyclones?
I think I’m giving it a 9.5/10
I thought it was just me that didn't know what he was talking about.
Sharon got called for a foul, and Prohm told them (him/her) to play defense instead of fouling, but not like Bob Knight thankfully, but also not in a way that would make one believe he has passion.
They're playing with more awareness than seniors some seasons.
So let me get this straight. We spanked Missouri, without our two best known players? Ya this team is good. 25 turnovers generated, 9 steals, ya this team is good.
Odds are it means Shaka is going to underachieve again.
I kind of assumed that Haliburton wouldn't get a lot of PT this year. Defense, court awareness, shooting -- all are better than I imagined. He barely came out of that game.
The pairing with Nick in the backcourt was quite effective (8 assists and no turnovers).
Nick had 6 ASST and no TO's -- hmm. Who does that remind me of?

Hopefully Wigginton isn't out too long. He would have had a heyday with how they guarded the perimeter. They gave us so many open shots and their close outs were not good giving us driving opportunities (Wigginton's specialty). Hope we get good news on his health soon.
