that was crazy. I don't know if I have seen a team throw in that many desperation 3 pointers in a row. I think ISU only had one guy make both FTs all night. Got to get that figured out.

Idk why so many people are so ****** about this win. We will be able to take a lot more from a win where we almost gave it away than a blow out.

Pathetic. If these guys can't make free throws we're anything but average. I swear they decided to just give up and hope for a Texas miss at the end. Just wow.

...I made one request for a game that didn't make me want to hurl during the last minute.

I was under the impression that it was going to happen.

It didn't. A win's a win, but holy cow does this team need to figure out how to sustain what's working to begin with (energy at both ends, not relying on the dribble for ball movemenet, etc.).

We didn't cover the spread did we... Kind of crazy how that works. Makes one wonder.

Texas was un-*******believable shooting 3s in the 2nd half. I don't think they even shoot 30% as a team for the season. They made It 10 in the 2nd half...TEN...out of 14. Good God

I don't get why teams (KU, UT) have this really odd talent to drain desperation, contested threes in the past few minutes when it's probably still beyond reach. Despite the fact they couldn't hit the side of a barn when they had plenty of good looks throughout the rest of the game.

Last 3 minutes were a joke. We refuse to play defense because I think we're worried about fouling late in games. So we give up wide open threes or easy lanes to the hoop and allow them to score quickly. Makes sense.
