Hey Fanatics,

Is there any doubt that was Iowa State's most complete effort this season? Wow. And Chelsea Poppens couldn't be stopped.

Here's my recap.

I didn't see the game, but thought Prins had quite the stat line for only 9 minutes.

Prins vastly underperforms IMO. She misses shots at the basket when her defender is a foot shorter... she falls down on every other play as well.

She was out with an injury much of the early summer and has been hurt the entire season so far. She's still trying to get into regular season form.

Plus during the UNI game they collapsed onto the post players whenever the ball went inside. When you try to keep the ball above your head so they can't tie you up your center of gravity changes and they were really pushing all of the posts around, not just Prins. Pop was just fighting through the arms better when she brought the ball down then the rest.

During halftime the players were asked what they wanted for Christmas. Did anyone catch Lauren's reply (something about computers) as she got the annoucers chuckling?

I thought she jokingly said something about a Mac. Lndsey said something about getting it and then made clear it was a joke as though such a gift would run afoul of NCAA rules.
