It took a miracle 3 years ago, and that was Iowa St's best team of this whole run. And that okie st team was worse.
PREDICTIONS: No. 24 Iowa State vs. Oklahoma State
- Thread starter ChrisMWilliams
- Start date
I predict the teams plays their tails off and that's all I ask of them, and it's one of 'those' games that we're all too familiar with where there's never quite a comfortable moment.
Some call this 'exciting'.
I call it 'alcohol dependency'.

Iowa State 81, Oklahoma State 79 ... nerve-wracking final possession, but we hold on.

It will go pretty much like the script of the last few meetings in Ames; tight game that comes down to the final few possessions . I'm going to say that OSU wins 85-82. Now that I've put that in writing, ISU will blow our doors off.
Enjoy the last of Monte - great competitor and leader. There are those players who come along where I think, "I wish he were on our team" and he certainly fits that mold. I love it when talented players like him stay for four years, as they are the engine that make college basketball so awesome.
Go Pokes!

OSU is very tough - but the "Cowboy Killer" aka "3sus of Nazareth" has one more silver bullet & shoots the winning 3 with no time left. Forte commits hari kari at half court.
My thoughts exactly.
I think they jump out to a 10+ lead in the first half and keep making ridiculous shots to keep us at arm's length. With around 5 minutes left in regulation and we take over and build about a 6-point lead with a minute to play. They make a couple more ridiculous shots in that minute to make all our sphincters tighten, but we defend the final possession and win by 2.
Cyclones 84, Pokes 82
I just want to be able to sleep afterwards. Alas I don't think that's going to happen.
I expect one of the best, most competitive games if the season. Two teams in s groove.

ISU - 81
Orange Cowboys - 68
I think the seniors come out firing right away and don't slow down.
