*** Official #22 TCU vs #19 IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

[fsanford]

Saw the score and Jaz line and thought, wonder what zrnfq is complaining about tonight.

People ***** about not making free throws tonight ISU makes free throws so there is a need to ***** about something else.

Until some people get it through their heads most games are going to be close in this league they will complain about things even winning by 11

FT shooting means so much more in this league. Tonight was a major example of it.

The teams in the B12 are so good and so close in ability that FTs can be the difference between a W and an L.

Needed this one, on to K-State Saturday!

Really need Lipsey/Holmes/Gabe/Grill at the top of their game against KSU's back court Saturday.

 

[SEIOWA CLONE]

Dang, we needed that win, good to finally walk off the floor with a W, but man that should have been a lot easier than what it was.
Looking at the schedule we need to get at least 2 more wins the rest of the way, we will be favored in both our home games, that would give us, 10 wins on the season.

I get the feeling this is going to be one of those year, when we look back and say that even with 10 wins, we should have tied for the conference, just gave too many games away that we held the lead and could not finish.

 

[GetAwesome]

Is this team the softest closers in the league? Yes, yes they are. But we got the W.

 

[CloneLawman]

It's funny how you can look at your post history and see exactly when TCU went on runs in this thread and when ISU did strictly based on when you were posting or not. You don't comment for a half hour when Iowa State was mostly in control, and turn up again when TCU goes on a run

We’re gonna lose to TCU no matter what. Probably by 20.

 

[fsanford]

Is this team the softest closers in the league? Yes, yes they are. But we got the W.

And yet are a game out of first go figure

 

[trevn]

What are you taking issue with? The content or the fact it's not an overly positive.

I swear some ninnies on here ride unicorns and paint rainbows. And if others don't do the same their feelings are hurt.

Your takes on the game aren’t content.

I'm not willing to write off the remaining road games just yet. Cyclones match up reasonably well against KSU, UT and BU.

It's also the least talented.

Those things tend to be connected.

 

[Cupped]

Eddie Lampkin was a total non-factor tonight; had 3 points, 0 Rebs and 1 stl in 21 minutes largely b/c of BRE defensive pressure.

That was big! O' Bannon and Miller also usually torch us and they combined for just 10 pts and 5 boards.

 

[CycloneErik]

That was a nice, nice win.
Might as well get another one Saturday.

I can see ISU getting one of those.

They are very competitive on the road. Due to pull one of those out

 

[davegilbertson]

Is TJ super pro-gold? Or just making up for Campbell's disdain?

I've been a stauch defender of gold (bball only) but has anyone done a uni tracker?

I take issue with your negative attitude, how ******* boorish can you possibly be? Here's some advice that I gave myself in my early twenties that helped me see myself in a better light. 'Generally, most people don't care what you think.'

 

[AgronAlum]

What happened with the free throws on the Jaz 3/flagrant? Why did he only shoot three?

 

[ISUTex]

Game ball to Jaz, good game for Bob.

Bob shot the ball, what? Once? And it wasn't a bad shot. Had a really nice pass out to Holmes for a three. That's exactly how he needs to play.

Most on an ISU message board may be more fond of ISU and generally rooting for/looking for positives of said team/players.

 

[trevn]

What happened with the free throws on the Jaz 3/flagrant? Why did he only shoot three?

Fouled shooting a three and it turned into a flagrant 1 after review.

Edit: if you get a flagrant during a shooting foul you only get the free throws for the shot you were fouled on.

That version of Jaz is my favorite Jaz
