Baylor handled us in Waco...what do we need to do different??

[isuno1fan]

Really want this victory tomorrow for Scotty and Chris, but also for the entirety of Cyclone Nation. Want to go into the tournament off a win. Baylor had their way with us in Waco. Royce struggled against their zone, we shot poorly, and the defense was less than stellar (especially 2nd half). Do we try anything different or do we just count on making shots at home and riding the energy of the crowd to spark the defense??

Play defense and watch them clank the rim as usual.

hit shots.


the end.

Play good D, execute on offense, and watch Baylor fall apart. There's a lack of leadership on that team, IMHO.

Yes. Effort was lacking last time. It won't be this time.

Fred won't have to hit the press conference table again.

We need to force them to become jump shot team. They are so good under the basket. If we play their game, we will lose.

i don't care what their record is, i will never consider baylor to be anything but a "pretender. " they are fake men at home and they will play like boys on the road saturday. clones get revenge in a big way. mark it down.

1. Hit shots early.
2. Force them to settle for the mid-range jumpers. They were hitting these like crazy last time but I don't think they'll hit at such a high % on the road.

Prevent the dunk contest they had going last time.

Dunk contest-they win.
3-point shootout- we win.

[cyguytillidie]

Playing defense would help.

First off, outscoring them would put ISU at the advantage....I'd say stop them in transition...which seemed to be a problem on wednesday from what i've read...

maybe they will do a dunk over a pinto.

Play better defense!

We need to be extremely physical guarding them. Hope for some help from the officials.
