I'm all for the court storming. Everyone knew we had the tools to beat this Michigan team, but the fans showed up and hilton was at a fevered pitch the whole time. It was a great back and forth game. Everytime you thought Michigan was going to start running away, ISU makes some clutch plays and takes the lead. In a game like that, with what was on the line in this game(impressing recruits, NCAA tourney selection, starting the season off at home on the right foot), it was totally justified.

No need to stick our noses up like our **** doesn't stink or we might start to look like KPuke fans.

Somebody will. At this point in the season, the likes of Edozie, Bluford, and SDW simply haven't played enough at this level to warrant PT against an opponent of this caliber. All 3 plus Percy will probably play in all remaining games until the DH Classic. Not really sure why Percy didn't at least get a couple minutes to give Melvin a breather, especially since Niang sat out most of the 2nd half.

Morris and Thomas looked incredibly raw today. I won't be surprised if this is the worst they look all season long.

I wouldn't have minded seeing Edozie out there just to put McGary in his place a few times... if you know what I mean.

Congrats from a KU alumnus. ISU didn't shoot as well as normal and still looked very comfortable against a tough opponent. So many weapons on your squad. The games between KU-ISU-OSU should be intense.

Act like you have been there....geez us. Like the enthusiasm, but it's early, and Michigan was a two point favorite...hardly an upset.

They were rated #7. Coach Johnny Orr's old team before becoming a Cyclone icon. Big win for NCAA's. Big win with lots of recruits there. I am glad for the enthusiasm shown by the crowd. Better that the fans storm the court and show enthusiasm and create an electric environment than for the crowd to simply sit on their hands and walk out showing no emotion. What recruit would want to play for a crowd that is not enthusiastic about a performance that was shown by the Cyclones in beating Michigan today? It was a big non-conference win.

Why are people arguing? Iowa State just beat Michigan on a huge recruiting weekend.

Eat it turd...do you want me to count the times isu has beat a ranked team? It's November and the rankings are virtually meaningless. Am I excited? Of course, but it's one f@@@ing game.

Obviously you don't understand the why this win is huge besides beating a ranked team. I'll just say Rashad Vaughn for one but you obviously are too god damn ******** to understand the meaning of this win
