*** Official #14 Baylor vs #7 IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

First game will probably be longer than 2 hours so probably looking at 8:45 or later start
I still say we should kick them out of the conference.
You must have been born after the Hampton game.
Imo the team looked fine last night. The championship game on a Saturday helps so a one or two game burst shouldn't be too bad. I'm more worried about injuries which I guess is similar.
I was in the same boat though. Was just wanting to see ISU figure some things out to get better looks on offense etc. and then as they started to pour it on last night...
You're lucky. Being a construction superintendent I don't get to ever work from home. Oh well, love doing this since I can't sit at a desk all day long.
I said it elsewhere, but the key to me is for us to get Baylor out of their zone early, as they aren't great at man defense. In Waco, we got inside the zone early and just plain missed the shots, so they stayed in it. Once we finally made them switch, we came back and almost took it from them.
I believe Baylor is the only Big XII opponent we haven't won against this year. Would be cool to say we beat every Big XII team this season!
Time for some payback. MM with a buzzer beater this time.
Truth be told, I'd rather work at the power plant. I just hate my commute. It's the choice I made to live here such that my wife can bike to work in 5 minutes.

Well, might as well win this one, too.
Baylor's zone gives us fits. Going to be a dog fight. Nonetheless, we've got to be proud whatever the result. Still looking good come Selection Sunday. Hope we win though.
I'd love to work at a nucular paner plant (assuming you get the reference since you have Homer Simpson as your avatar).
They're still not shooting it from 3 as well as they need. Another game to try to get them going before the tourney. I'd love if they got going at a similar clip as the stretch from the end of January thru first part of February.
I don't know this for sure, but I'd imagine Baylor plays much more zone than K-State.
Shooting 1-14 from 3 won't help get Baylor out of their zone.
K State threw a 1-3-1 at us, and I think Baylor plays a 2-3. We ate up the 1-3-1 and they quit using it. We know what to do against the 2-3, just need to execute and get them out of it so that we can operate against their man defense.
Overall, I think it's good experience in case we run into a zone in the tournament.
We're not going 1-14 again from downtown.
