What did Otz screw up this game

[swiacy]

Take the high road, be humble in victory. On the other hand….he who laughs last laughs best.

Poor, poor @ZRF

May they rest in peace, likely on a rival's message board

Don’t forget @Darius Bieber, just never a time in the game he could post..

Everyone's so excited about the dominating win, nobody thinks about how hard it is for guys like @Darius Bieber that can only post negative things. Sad.

Imagine making that your identity, on an internet sports forum

I prefer this guy's approach:

 

[rosshm16]

Would have been nice to win by 40

 

[tim_redd]

Couldn't even double up the now #2 defense in the nation.

I saw our guy zrf was on the Houston site earlier throwing us under the. Us before the game started. He’s probably sad right now

That was ISUs lowest point total in a Big 12 Championship game. Still not sure if Otz is the right guy.

That had to be big a pretty big margin I would think?

I've got your back. It's important that we don't rush to judgment.

Another attack but...again...since you asked....

I was at the game. Going in I expected to lose (as one should playing a great team, on the road, where they play well) and thought rebounded would be a key issue. One one of the first few possessions we were bad on a possession but on the overall? It was probably our best rebounding performance of the season, especially considering the environment and competition.

I'd also say it was probably one of his best games in terms of management. Playing Pavs in the first half was a mistake, as usual he couldn't keep up defensively, but he seemed to notice and didn't play him in the 2nd half. BRE played great and Otz stuck with him, which was easy to do with Ward in trouble (who didn't have his best game). At the end of the game he was subbing guys in and out and utilizing his roster.

The only two things that disappoointed me were Lipsey (not his best game but Houston is tough) and the unforced TOs. One of the more significant plays in the game was in the 2nd half, down 5, on a break (off a TO) with a chance to go down 3 and stifle the crowd. Keshon tries to split two defenders, predictably turns it over, and Houston scores (a 3 I think). Backbreaking possession right there. The environment was TOUGH but you have to make them earn the TOs. Too many times we didn't.

But there were far more positives than negatives. Our 3 point shooting selection was fantastic, and ti think that was a large part of our success there. The rebounding was great, and King probably blocked out the best he has all season. Our effort was great on the road. Probably the most impressive part, what you want to see out of your team, is they didnt' fold. Down big in the first and got down 11 in the 2nd but kept fighting back. Do that in the tourney, on a neutral court, and that can steal a win. Great resilience for the team.

That arena was consistently LOUD. Putting the students on the floor is something EVERY school should do if they want to win. I was loud, the atmopshere palpable, and I'd say it's the loudest arena in the conference (Hilton and the Phog can be louder at times but not as consistently deafening as Fertitta). You just want to make Houston earn the win at home and they did. Not much more you could reasonably ask for.

You get once sentence. Beyond that I’m done reading. That’s just way too many words from ass Dumbass fake fan.

Also did all of you stay considering I wrote 4 sentences? Just curious

Pretty sure they got canned shortly after the Houston game.

Were they seriously on Houston boards? We're all a little weird but something's not right there.

 

[Gordilly]

King completely f'ed the sticker placement. It is obvious TJ isn't focused on sticker placement. That is going to be embarrassing during the Final Four

And it's obvious that they don't work on net cutting in practice

He mentioned some kind of issue but I don’t remember what it was.

He goes on all the other teams boards and dogs out Iowa state, playing the role of “I’m the good Iowa state fan who’s reasonable”. It’s sad

 

[I-stateTheTruth]

Kelderman outscored Tre and BRE. And Ward isn't 6'10". Shouldn't have signed him.

 

[hoosman]

I heard Shaq is offering FT training for BRE.

It’s a road game. TV doesn’t do it justice either. Go across the street to KCPL and it will be 95% Cyclone fans today. In some ways (with that atmosphere) it’s more of a home game than playing at Hilton is (minus the travel). We’ve been very pedestrian most of the last 3-4 weeks with the big...
