***Official Iowa State vs. Kansas Game(day) Thread***

[cmjh10]

KU -12.5 is what vegas has the game at.

I would take Kansas to cover unfortunately.

I would love to see the huge upset tonight, but at the very least, I just hope ISU plays well.

However, as Fran Fraschilla tweeted this morning when asked about his thoughts on this game:

Fran Fraschilla‏@franfraschilla Curtis Stinson & Jamaal Tinsley not walking through that door. RT @TrevorOlson8: what are your thoughts about the Iowa State vs Kansas game?

Guy lives in the past. In a few years he'll probably say something dumb like Will Clyburn and Korie Lucious not walking through that door.

Doubt that. Stinson and Tinsley were very dynamic players for us. Lucious isnt going to be as good as either from what I can tell so far and Clyburn is still up in the air. Stinson and Tinsley could absolutely take over a game when they needed to.

Exactly.......he was simply stating that no one on this year's team has shown the ability to lead, or take over a game like Stinson and Tinsley could. I would hope someone would step up tonight (and the rest of the season) to do that but I have my doubts. I would be glad to be wrong.

Will can be the guy but it is tough for a wing player to dominate because they get fewer touches. The two listed were some of the most physical point guards I can remember. When a guard can regualrly penitrate the lane it breaks down every defense one can muster. ISU was able to have similar success with White last season because of his ability to get into the lane and make the defense breakdown. Tonight ISU is going to need one heck of a shooting performance to pull this off or KU needs to go ice cold.

Which is why I said it was "something dumb" that Gottlieb might say in future years.

Dont get snippy with me sir, I never learned to read gooder.

[CtownCyclone]

Kansas might as well stay in the locker room. They are gonna get embarrassed.

I like your enthusiasm!

What does Gottlieb have to do with it?

When it comes to lying to myself, I am a master.

Ug, nevermind.

EDIT: Sorry, I shouldn't be so dismissive. I was just taking issue with Gottlieb's tweet that seemed to imply we'd need a Tinsley or Stinson in order to beat Kansas.

I took a little parlay with the over total. 149 and Kansas.

[isuforlife]

Don't turn the ball over , someone step up and be a leader and we win

I guess we all learned an important lesson today. We suck at the internet.

Are you talking about Fraschilla?
