Actually he should EABOD after trashing ISU and their losses to KU before the game. Notice he doesen't have much to say about the ISU game. Magine that. Upon further review. He's still clueless and turrible.

Barkley said ISU blew those games. In large part he is right. Those are both games that ISU should have held onto leads in and won. Why do we always blow media quotes way out of proportion if they are even remotely negative about ISU?

Barkely couldn't make up his mind who he thought was going to win this game. And he easily shape-shifted at halftime, making it sound like he always knew ISU was just too strong and athletic for N.D.

I would think his words would taste turrible.

I also think he's drunk.

I <3 Charles Barkley

Not too upset with what he said. He just said he saw Iowa State choke under pressure at Kansas and he thought it could happen tonight.

If we are all mad at Charles Barkley, lets get mad at Fitzy too...he had ND winning!

I didnt take what he said as a bash to ISU...more of a compliment. He said ISU blew the game against Kansas, which was one of the best teams in the Country. I think he was saying ISU would win this game if they maintained mental toughness down the stretch, and there is not an ISU fan out there who logically can disagree with that.

Burkley's Turrible and I'm almost positive if you bought him a beer at the bar, he'd tell you the same thing. But then he'd ask you, "If they were paying you my money to make stupid comments, would you not do it too?"

And as Wesley noted, I think this team has learned from it's struggles this year. They certainly curb stomped the Domers when it came time.

He said that ISU blew the games against Kansas late, which was saying a lot about ISU's talent because Kansas is a good team(though they didn't look like it against WKU tonight, lol.) But he also said that it showed their tendancy to let games slip away late. He never really sung either teams praises, just kinda called it like it was.

How do you hate on Sir Charles? He's like a big teddy bear.

A big dyslexic, handicapped teddy bear, that puts 0 effort into his current job, besides sitting at the bar to watch a few games. His co-hosts were all laughing at his lack of research and insight. He's a fan of some teams and an insightul about none.

Didn't Kenny Smith say in the pregame that a key to the game was whether Notre Dame could hit their 3s ... but didn't mention about us hitting our 3s.

"Somebody said something about Iowa State that wasn't talking about how amazing we are, even though we're not amazing. I'm offended by this and am going to make a thread about it!". --an average Cyclonefanatic poster

The funnest thing said was when Barkley said "Whitey" instead of "Whithey". There was a long pause after that was said.
