Plus we only shot 3 for 9 for free throws and got beat by 13 from the free throw line.
Another amazing stat: we start 4 guards against a great rebounding team and we out rebounded them 32 to 27.
That was TCU's 2nd worst OR% game of the season

69-67 final. Little pat on the back to myself. Was a fun game to attend. Many ISU fans in attendance. Lot of empty seats tho. Must all be in CaliforniaWife and I will be there. Don’t have a lot of luck at TCU but today feels different.
68-64 Clones
I think Jaz is a critical piece, and King coming in and adequately replacing him after two years out of basketball was a pretty reasonable take. King has just been remarkable since he has hit the floor. We now have the luxury of a rotation at the 4 that is deep, talented and interchangeable (once Jaz gets back). Shout out to Watson for being part of that too.Jaz has the lowest TO percentage on the team, the leading rebounder, 2nd best 3 pt shooter, and can defend all 5 positions. He has the highest offensive efficiency on the team. All that said, I agree it was a weird comment by CW. Like, why isn’t everyone saying “the sky is falling”. Although he has said that Tre King has exceeded his expectations, so maybe the rest of us had more expectations out of King and that’s why we weren’t freaking out.
Being able to choose from those two gives TJ some serious tactical flexibility.I love Jaz but give me Tre's athletic ability and length
I was shocked abt the rebounding stat when i saw it. Tcu has a lot of long athletic guys. Just shows how key hustle, position, wanting the ball matters. Rebounding is all effort.Plus we only shot 3 for 9 for free throws and got beat by 13 from the free throw line.

This this team has ELITE effort.
They've already been ruled out? They were gametime decisions last night so they could very well play Tuesday.Not that any win is a given in the Big 12, but looking ahead to Tuesday's game with TTU...
They will be missing a couple of key pieces in Pop Isaacs and Daniel Batcho. They are a young team and some good young talent is stepping up, but we should handle them and go to 4-0.

You were correct the first time -- 0-3 (lost to OU on Saturday)Wow... and they are 0-3 with those guys.
Edit: 0-2* didn't realize they didn't play yesterday
GTO. always enjoy this post, any chance Grill's hair could get an update?
I'll work on that for next game thread.GTO. always enjoy this post, any chance Grill's hair could get an update?
Around here it's called the "Tim Floyd Treatment". If the other team was in the one and one, Floyd would intentionally foul a 40 percent, or worse, FT shooter in the first half, away from the ball. Second half too.I remember his first game as a Cyclone. He got fouled early in the game, and this was before any of us knew anything about him other than that he tries really hard.
He literally banked both free throw shots and they went in. I'm not sure he has gone 2/2 since that fateful night. I'm pretty certain he never tried banking one again either. Maybe he just needs to try doing that again. Idk. But teams are gonna start to give him the Shaq treatment soon if he doesn't improve.
I’m sure that’s why he was yelling loudly and repeatedly about it during the broadcast. He’s got a bullhorn.On the Miles leg kick, I wonder if Fran has any sway in bringing this to the rules committee's attention?
I could swear the Stinson Blalock team did it during that 7 game conference win streak.Such a great win on the road today! What a week! 2 road wins in a week? I wonder when is the last time that has happened?
