*** Official Oklahoma vs #23 IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

We need a scorer for next year. A legit, get out of my way, give me the ball scorer.

Omaha is our man. He’s definitely that kind of player.

 

[fsanford]

You had to make it exciting

Why MSU didn't foul there is just stupid

 

[Clonefan32]

We played above our talent early and we’ve both regressed to the mean and been figured out by other teams. It is what it is.

ISU very well be a tournament team, but they are not playing like one at the moment. I trust TJ, but think it maybe wise to mix things up a little as the current strategy ain’t working.

Precious little time to change things up in enough time for it to make a difference. Could be as few as 4 Cyclone games left in the season

TJ needs to learn to make in game adjustments.

TJ also needs to learn it takes more than just mental toughness to win

Mostly agree.
For us it’s alway simple- Grill, Holmes and Gabe.
If one is hot we probably win.
If Two are hot we beat almost anybody.
If none are hot (today) we can lose to anybody.

Iowa is getting handed another win today in the dying seconds of a game. This time to the green team from the state of Michigan

In fairness, we all said the same thing last year at the same point in season.

I thought about that during the game (and during previous game). Around this date last season, I figured we were one-and-done no matter the seeding.

Of course that doesn't guarantee we'll be able to repeat last season's tournament performance.

This was a Quad 3 loss today as Oklahoma was #76 and it was home. We lose the final 2 and the Wednesday night game to Oklahoma again then we are likely a #9-10 seed in the tournament.

Lets hear it for Holmes lol no basketball ability on this team

Gross

TJ needs to learn how to coach offensive. Crazy that he was an assistant to Hoiberg and don't know how to coach offense. The no transition stuff is mind blowing since we don't have great shooters. It just makes no sense.

TJ does coach offensive.

At least the sqwaks are gonna give up a hundo in a big L. That's the only saving grace from this day.

Why did you do this?

If U don't have great athletes who can shoot the basketball....Its really hard to win at this level!!

You may be correct but if the worse happens......

17-14
Lost 10 of last 12 including 2 times in 2 weeks to #76 and last place OU.

I wouldn't wager the farm on that.

 

[ClonesFTW]

Between us looking like dog **** and Iowa completing a historic comeback to win both within the same hour, this has been a bad day.

 

[BCClone]

Looks like we will be playing the first day of the Big XII tourney.

 

[67CY]

Maybe TJ a will figure out how to beat OU in KC play in round. Hate to say it, but I can’t see us beating Huggins Monday

We have too many Quad 1 wins. Wins against Baylor, Texas, Kansas and KSU. The other resumes on the Bubble has 2-3 Quad 1 wins.
