    Never felt better after a tournament loss

    Correct. And the biggest difference between that 2016 team and this team is who is returning. That loss to Virginia hurt so bad because we knew it was the last year they could make a deep run. We were losing 3 of our 4 best players (Niang Nader McKay leaving, Monte staying) Next years team...

    Will Iowa State make postseason play?

    I agree that this team is young and they will improve to be alright. I think the conference win take is a bit of an overreaction. Last years team went 9-3 in non con (with all three loses being BAD blowouts) and only needed to go 9-9 in conference for a 6 seed. The only good win being UNC which...

    *** Official IOWA STATE vs Cincinnati Game(Day) Thread ***

    Cyclone Larry tweeted before the game that the game vs Texas on Nov 18 will be a play in game for the Big 12 Championship. I laughed at the time, but when I run through the scenarios it's not that crazy. You gotta beat Texas to have the head to head, but you'd have room to slip up and go 3-1...

    Weird Ames Playground Thing

    According to the State Fire Marshal website, Jon Samuelson, 83 of Boone died in an intentional set bonfire on March 24,2023. When I read it, I knew that name sounded familiar, sure enough, it's the owner of the Shrine. There are no news articles or obituaries concerning his death. This certainly...

    Best employers in Central Iowa

    Have any of you had experiences working for a smaller company that was bought by a much bigger one? How did it go? I work at REG (Renewable Energy Group) in Ames and last year they were acquired by Chevron. Most people were apprehensive when we heard the news, but it's actually been the best...

    NBA: ***2022-2023 NBA season, post season, and offseason***

    I know they shared the series win probability when going up 2-0 in the playoffs (I think 92%), but what do you think the percentage is when that 2-0 is on the road? Gotta be 99% or something like that.

    2022-23 Highlights

    I'll add the Kstate victory at home was great. They would just hit some crazy shot, and ISU would answer right back every time. Went on for pretty much the last 10 minutes of the game. One of my favorite games at Hilton ever, and Juicy Wiggle at the end to put the cherry on top. And Gabe's...

    ***Official 2023 Weather Thread***

    Could be a pretty major tornado that started in east Norman and is still going. The live stream has been pretty intense. Hard to know for sure what's actually on the ground besides some power flashes.

    Are we even a tournament team?

    The main difference being the overall resume. So far this ISU team has 7 top 25 wins, and Iowa had 2 top 25 wins that season. Not to mention Iowa had worse losses.

    Are we even a tournament team?

    Going into today ISU was a consensus 4 seed They will drop a seed (at the very most) for any remaining losses. Both Baylor and WVU will be quad one games so probably only losing half a seed for those. Lost today: drop to 5 seed Lose to WVU: drop to 5.5 Seed Lose to Baylor: drop to 6 seed Lose...

    Who was the best modern Iowa State Men's Basketball Team?

    Yup. The 2012-13 Lucious/Clyburn team barely made it into the dance, and lost on the Craft shot to go to the Sweet 16.

    Tough day for EIU hoops hopes

    I remember hearing Duke (-28.5) losing to Stephen F Austin a few years ago was the biggest upset against the spread in history. That game was at least close.

    Hason Ward Committed

    I'm pretty optimistic looking at the line up next year. With his length, Ward is an upgrade over Conditt or Enaruna. Reminds me of the Lard/McKay type, with hopefully a better work ethic. PG: Hunter/Lipsey SG: Klashuer/Grill/Willaims SF: Eli King/Watson PF: Jaz/Jones C: Tre King/Ward With two...

    Ed Wilson and Brett McEntire are a good duo. Roger Riley on the ground is great as well

    Kunc expected to use COVID year, return for second season in Ames

    This keeps throwing me off too, but I keep forgetting that Javan Johnson, Blake Hinson, and Xavier Foster left so late last year TJ never used those three scholarships this year. So they have 4 out: Brockington, Conditt, Jackson, Walker Then they have 4 in: Lispey, Watson, Tre King, Eli King...

    Friday OT #2 - So, So, So Scandalous

    The Jason Carter story has been a wild one, not just the criminal trial, but the civil one as well. I'm pretty sure he did it, but there are a lot of odd things about the story. Another one really close to home is the missing person case of Jesse Leopold. His truck was found at Ledges State...

    Monster tornado

    Just awful. Had a feeling that the 8+year EF5 drought was in jeopardy last night when I saw the hook on radar. Time will tell when the sun rises, but it certainly look to be EF4/Ef5. This will likely be one of the deadliest tornadoes in our lifetime. The candle factory deaths alone would make...

    Just like that Tanner Morgan throws a pick 6. I'm guessing this is over by halftime.
