***Iowa State vs. Green Bay NCAA Tournament Game Thread***

I hope it tastes good.

Tastes feathery.

I will gladly eat crow. Happy to be wrong.

GB has been a consistently tough program for years. Gotta love their energy, but very busy hands, too much reaching/slapping/shoving.

Should have been an intentional foul at the end, gutless officiating not to call that.

I expect Iowa State to beat UConn.

I hope the team thinks this too. That's the only way it could ever happen.

As far as I'm concerned, I just want to see us lay it all out there and play like we expect to win. When UConn goes on a roll, don't wilt, just keep playing our game and playing tough.

If we had trouble getting shots off against GB, we'll really struggle against UConn. Hopefully the 3s will be falling.

How many career wins is it now for BF?

I thought Schroll did a really good job tonight too. Her defense has gotten a lot better, and her drives to the hoop in the first half kept us in the game.

I can't wait to see her play a bigger role next season.

Lacey was exhausted and Bolte couldn't hit the broad side of a barn, yet we found a way to win.

Very concise.

Lacey was exhausted and Bolte couldn't hit the broad side of a barn, yet we found a way to win.

Yup, Lacey looked really tired and I am not surprised. You don't come back from being as sick as she was and have it not impact your game. You could tell in her shots tonight and on Sunday.

Fennely's going to have to get a national championship one of these years...

If there is a team that can beat UConn, its the sisters. ISU was the only team all year to slow down NU and they did it twice... once without Aus. Slow the game down and take away their athletes.

Fennelly on playing UCONN on the ESPN postgame:

"What the hell, let's go play 'em."

Damn right. Go get 'em, Bill

 

[CrossCyed]

haha

"what the hell....let's go play em"

 

[BoxsterCy]

How many career wins is it now for BF?

498, I think.

Fennelly on playing UCONN on the ESPN postgame:

"What the hell, let's go play 'em."

Damn right. Go get 'em, Bill

I'm pretty sure that was the attitude 11 years ago...

 

[VeloClone]

Play like that against UCONN next and ISU loses by 30

Go away. I thought you packed your bags and left anyway.

 

[MadBr]

So when we reach the final four it would be 500!

 

[aauummm]

Fennelly on playing UCONN on the ESPN postgame:

"What the hell, let's go play 'em."

Damn right. Go get 'em, Bill

I saw that, that was good!!!:yes:

 

[NYCy]

We will beat UConn. We will be the school to end their streak. It will be deja vu 1999. I have the faith. Fennelly is the greatest coach. Look at the rabbit he pulled out of his hat tonight. I do not doubt BF or this team.

 

[MadBr]

I wonder what the recruits are thinking watching us hit the Sweet Sixteen? I bet they are wishing they were already here!

 

[ISUKyro]

I simply love this team - they are simply doing things they are not suppose to do!
Projected to take what?.... 7th in the Big12. Probably would have taken the big12 had NU not been such a monster this year....
Now Sweet16 back-to-back
Scrappy wins when we've been down the entire game

WHY NOT! Bring on UCONN! Somebody's gotta knock them off someday!
GO GET IT SISTERS!!

I expect Iowa State to beat UConn.

And I can guarantee you by next weekend the Twister Sisters will too
