*** Official #24 IOWA STATE vs #20 BYU Game(Day) Thread ***

[ClonerJams]

Take care of the ball
Don't take Lipsey out
Quit giving them wide open 3's

If we do this, we should win.

 

[CYDJ]

Hopefully Lipsey got all the rest he needs. Looking forward to looking back after the game and joking about how we had so many turnovers and they hit every 3 they put up, then the tide turned the first 4 minutes of the second half.

Getting killed on the boards

9 offensive rebounds for byu

Unacceptable when they have 3-4 guys on the perimeter.

 

[jctisu]

I don’t even think playing better defense on the arc is even the key. Obviously let’s do better in the second half because it still needs to be better.

But to me it’s simple. They got 13 fast break points and 10 of them off of beyond lazy passing. Just don’t beat yourself like that because it’s what BYU lives off of.

 

[Cyinthenorth]

Random white player shooting lights out en route to a career night. Drink.

 

[mynameisjonas]

If that guy that banged his head is out they will be down 3 players. should be a double digit victory.

 

[CyState85]

Why does BYU always have a player that looks like the evil character from a Pixar movie?

 

[Cycsk]

Not at all true.

Shawn Kenney is from Perry Iowa and Bryndon Manzer played at Oklahoma State. They are ESPN announcers.

Oops. I've had it muted while I listen to our radio announcers. But I just turned on the sound for half-time and it seems like it is a BYU half-time crew.

Have Keshon absolutely shadow Johnson in the second half. Make someone else beat you

 

[JCity]

Sloppy offense, bad rebounding and most 1 sided officiating of the year and down by 4. Feeling good about the 2nd half.

 

[Old87]

Early conference games in the Big 12 will definitely teach our new guards that they need to step up their play to compete with the big boys. The team is getting after it, but some of the newbie’s are still learning the game. Hopefully these games will prepare them for the end of the season games.

Haven’t seen this many lazy passes since the TCU home game 2 years ago when Baugh had about 8 run out dunks off bad passes

 

[NebrClone]

Happy to be down only 4. Tamin with a clutch shot to finish the half.

TJ is going to have to dial up something different in the 2nd. BYU is hot tonight from 3, Johnson especially.

When King has a good game win. Today not so good.

 

[SoleCyclone]

Getting all their scoring out on the basketball court, we all know nobody there is "scoring" off the court at BYU. Am I right?

 

[Die4Cy]

We haven't turned them over much, haven't corralled the boards, haven't shot many free throws, and haven't defended the three. But we're only down four halfway through.

 

[CrossCyed]

Yeah they are BYU's people at half.

Elevation 4550

 

[ChickenNuggetMan]

BYU has 9 offensive rebounds

This is what we need to clean up. They aren’t bigger or more athletic than us.

 

[CycloneVet]

they have two guys out, how bad would they be beating us with those two? This looks like a really good team.

Patrick Ewing theory at work to ight

 

[NENick]

4 fewer 3s, 6 fewer fts, out-rebounded by 6, 2 more TOs.

Only down 4.
