*** Official Oklahoma Vs IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

I hesitate to say it, but I hardly heard the announcers mention Jacobsen or Nixon, and that might be why we have a nice lead. Love their grit, but the offense flows better when they are role players.

Neither one are starters, but that doesn't mean they can't be situationally useful.

Just want to say I slapped myself twice during this game to see if it was a dream or reality and this 17 point halftime lead is indeed a reality.

This is gonna be a gas!

2 of those look winnable. And I didn't pay attention before because of the name, but how did we get the luck of drawing Auburn in their only season in forever that they play good basketball?

Which 2? I only see OSU at home. I expect us to win that.

They went to the Final Four last year.

"I get that OU isn't a great team"

And yet the team most often mentioned on CF as the 5th big12 rep in tournament. Cyclone can win this.

Just guard Manek on the line, continue to play hard, and this one is in the bag.

 

[cyclones500]

A key -- if OU takes away/adjusts to what we're doing well, can we react effectively and weather a few runs

 

[sheepplucker]

Ugh Jacobson and Nixon..

 

[quasistellar]

I know they’re looking good right now, but even if they were looking a little rough, I’d want guys like Jackson and Lewis in there. They have to grow and be the guys in the future and they can’t do that on the bench.

 

[madguy30]

The jump with nowhere to go is catching up to TH lately. Happened last week too.

 

[MeowingCows]

And out goes the original starters.

That's fine, but if they start even remotely sucking... Find some benches for what we know was working.

 

[madguy30]

MJ with a three in rhythm.

 

[stormchaser2014]

Full mast

 

[MeowingCows]

Shooting 60% from the floor and 50% from 3 will win a lot of games. Not sustainable, but it's a breakthrough.

 

[CycloneErik]

Came out of the half OK, I guess.

 

[Rabbuk]

its too bad it took 2 months to find a rhythm but i feel better about next year

 

[CyArob]

It's too bad we only play this well like 20% of the time

 

[jaj040]

No no no no no YES!!!

 

[cyclones500]

Great start after halftime. Keep the pedal down.
