*** Official #7 IOWA STATE vs #1 Houston Game(Day) Thread ***

[Thomasrickj]

Whatever happens in today's game, I pray for no injuries.

That Niang injury late in the game when we were already murdering NC Central is the roughest injury this school has faced. With a healthy Niang I think we could’ve beat UConn.

We will! She’s been to gymnastics, WBB and Volleyball at Hilton. Never been to T Mobile.

The only games I’ve gone to at T Mobile have been the mbb tournament games on Saturday. ISU is 4-0 during those games.

Go cyclones!

Will be there in time for the pep rally.

SIAP but Ward looked pretty hobbled at the end of the game last night. Is it same foot he was out with injury with earlier in the year?

Hate to think about what next two weeks look like if he’s not healthy.

Was thinking Omaha getting minutes was all because of Watson, but wonder if Ward’s health is a factor as well.

Didn't he turn his ankle against K-State?

Salty Jayhawk fans are all in on Houston, despite us splitting with them and having the best performance of any team to play Houston on their home court.

Houston is just a damn good team. Admittedly, I haven’t watched much Houston prior to you guys joining the league. Curious how this team matches up against past Houston teams? Is this the best Houston team you’ve had, just more publicity, battle tested, etc.. Curious to hear.

Never heard of Phi Slamma Jamma? https://www.sportingnews.com/us/nca...-slama-jama-players/qxrsd4hdv3cz1tkpbko4x6hm0

Baylor "fans" not knowing how to fan is perfect. Maybe they are all just too dumb to figure out how to get tickets on the secondary market. Works for me!

Probably the greatest college game ever was between UCLA and Houston, 1968 in the Astrodome. Elvin Hayes vs. Lew Alcindor. No. 1 and No. 2. Guy Lewis vs. John Wooden. Houston won by 2. It is referred to as the “Game of the Century” in Wikipedia.

It’s a little breezy today in Kansas City. Almost like it’s a good day to be a Cyclone!

Root hard for us!!!

Cyclones 69-63. Home court advantage plus it means more for ISU

A round 4 with these guys this year would be awesome

 

[bosco]

This is an exhibition. Winning or losing won't effect either team very much. TJ and Sampson should have a gentleman's agreement to only play the bench and walk ons today.
