TCU Game Predictions

[Doc]

TCU is kind of special because they can play Williams at the 4 and defend Deonte with a good perimeter defender while still just crushing us on the boards. Williams is like Hogue on steroids.

I think it will be close. Things are never as good or bad as they seem, and let's be honest, our 3-pt shooting and freshman big man may both be due for a little regression. We get the W, barely.

Edit: decided to bump the scores up a bit

86-81 Clones

I feel like all this optimism is a reason to temper expectations. I guess that's just the Cyclone in me. That said, we pull off a nail biter.

I was just thinking I'm surprised nobody has taken us to lose yet.

Since Georges Niang is expected to be at the game tomorrow is there any chance his jersey will be hung from the rafters? Is there a specific waiting period for that?

Sounds like the two requirements are graduation and induction into the hall of fame first.

Thanks for the post. You would think they would announce something like that if they did. As far as Monte is concerned I think he's only one or two from breaking the all-time steals record.

I'm drinking Kool-Aid maybe but I don't see this ever being in serious doubt of us winning. We'll get out to a big lead early and they'll make a decent run but in the end we win pretty easily.

[I-stateTheTruth]

Solomon Young's new job.

Stop Vlad the Impaler!

 

[chuckd4735]

This is what I'll be interested in watching, on both ends of the floor. Morris shot 4-14, and if I remember correctly, Fisher worked him pretty well a few times, and had 11 assists.

TCU as a team shot 57% so you know Prohm has challenged them this week.

Morris was off that game, but had quite a few open looks.

 

[ArgentCy]

Solomon takes a step back on the stat sheet but still provides better defense and Vlad doesn't score nearly as much. Monte has a good game and Clones win by 6-7 points.

Iowa State 73, TCU 69

 

[Doc]

The line is moving toward TCU. There are no easy games in this conference.

 

[cyclone87]

All I know is we need this one so hopefully the guys are focused and get it done.

 

[cstrunk]

-6.5 ISU now.

Agreed.

 

[Gunnerclone]

Solomon goes for his second double-double in a row but Naz and Thomas go combined 4-16 from 3, Burton gets in early foul trouble, Monte has Moreno than one turnover and we still find a to win by getting 26 points off of 20 TCU turnovers.

Isu: 77
TCU: 72

I would really like this team to flex their muscles on them. TCU pushed as around and had their way with us last game. Want the team to send a message that we won't be abused like that again.

We're mad as h*** and we're not gonna take it any more!
