Williams and Blum discuss Iowa State’s fan takeover in Tempe on Saturday afternoon. The Cyclones are now in Tucson – as is CW – for a massive date with Arizona on Big Monday. Previewing that, and your Big 12 recap all courtesy of Mechdyne.

Enjoy!

This podcast led to lots of feelings of having missed out on a very special episode in Iowa State sports history.

CW and Blum briefly discussed this regarding the increasing athleticism in the Big 12, particularly with Houston and Arizona.

While Iowa State’s athleticism isn’t a true weakness, it might be our most susceptible strength—high-end athleticism and the ability to play above the rim. You put a ranking of 2, 3, or 4 next to Iowa State and you're running into teams with equal/better athlete's that are able to elevate their defense for one game (often shooting above their season averages to).

Our guard play has been great, and finding ways to get Jefferson going against more athletic bigs, I think, will be crucial the 2nd half of conference play.
