It's not out of reach, but give us maybe 15 to 20 percent chance to win at this point. Lot has to change in the second half to pull this one out.

I gotta say Illinois has to feel like they should be up 20 and that can be a mind ****.
We are playing small. Have not done this all year.
You want to get burned on the three or on the rebound. Your choice.
Dont have an athletic 5, its a bad matchup.
It's a freaking miracle that they're only down 10. That's the worst I've seen Iowa State play since before the conference schedule really and it's not based on anything Illinois has done.
Yeah it reminds me a lot of @KState. We had at least 4 or 5 chances to get it down to a marginal lead. And we absolutely failed each time miserably.
Fortunate to be only down 10. Lots of game left. I think ISU can’t play worse.
Well ****, that was brutal. Maybe we can catch fire but they looked outmatched everywhere and will have all kinds of foul trouble in the second half.
Shot selection. The announcers are right, some of these shots are just ridiculous like that Cujo running left handed book.
I'm not sure what strategy is for second-half adjustment, but it'll have to be outstanding, or we're gonna get crushed.
Edit/half-full assessment -- could be down by 20 already.

Had a great chance to put it at down by 5 or 6 and end up at 10 down is frustrating.
and most if not all were legit and half of them were just plain stupid
I don’t expect ISU to play so bad offensively in the second half but also expect Illinois to make some free throws.
