Teams that can't finish deserve to lose.[

That doesn't make this game an embarrassment; but your statement proves you're a moron.

You obviously didn't watch overtime.

[CY88CE11]

Oh, yea, lol, I didn't even realize that. whoops.

Haha it happens. Still have football on the mind.

[cstrunk]

Up by 3 with 8.4 seconds left and we don't foul and let their future NBA player shoot a 3? Only Iowa State...

[tee1up]

KU beat our A** because our coach wasnt smart enough to foul elijah johnson who just missed a crucial free throw.

KU beat our A** as usual so deal with it.

btw your a blooming IDIOT

Hey genius..just curious, were you on the bench, and did you hear Fred say don't foul? If there was one correct way to handle that situation, EVERY coach would do the same thing. There is no consensus as to how to handle it, so relax.

I would have preferred the blow out loss I was expecting.

These "haha, just kidding!" Cyclone classics make me want to stop watching sports altogether.

We have a whole lot more idiots on this board than I thought. This team has nothing to be ashamed of. Brilliant game plan. Great play by our team.

Totally agree. A great game played. Do I wish it was W? Yes. There are some bad things to immediately take away from this game but I saw a lot of good. First game of the conference season and we took Kansas down to the wire at home. This one burns bad but I feel good about the coming season after watching how they played tonight.

I just got online and understand the disappointment, but when did our fan base get worse than a bunch of Tavern Hoks (both sides of the argument).

[SpokaneCY]

Give me a day and I'll get to the positives. Sorry, but someone kicked my nuts into my stomach.

For as many of "us" that claim to these phantom "kick to the nuts" you'd think Cyclones as a race would be dying out.

[Die4Cy]

Well.

That sucked.

[CychoCyclone]

Well that was fun, if anybody needs me I'll be in the bathtub with razor blades and a toaster...

[tee1up]

Well that was fun. By far the best we have played all year, very encouraging. Really important to come back with a win Saturday, and build on this. Would be easy to go in the tank.

[Stumpy]

Great gameplan and likely an identity-building game. Couldn't have asked for more coming into the game (but obviously hoped for more coming out of it). It's a heartbreaker, but I feel much better about the rest of the season.

Recognizing a major strategic screw-up that cost us a huge win that would greatly enhance our tourney chances if we find ourselves on the bubble ... does not make anyone a Tavern Hawk. It was almost impossible to lose that game in the position we were in. Yet we did.

I can only hope we've been infested with twelve year olds (or drunks) who can't handle their emotions yet.

[cowmaster1]

We better kick the crap out of Kansas a home.
