Not exactly sure.
Hi Everyone! I'm a Pitt/Miss St fan and wanted to come here and talk about our upcoming matchup. Our fan base is really excited to be in the tournament and think we can go very far this year. Our coach Chris Jans/Jeff Capel has done an incredible job with the team this year and have installed an offense/defense that most teams are not used to facing.

We also have (insert player X name here) who is one of the most dominant matchup problems in the (insert conference here). Additionally, (insert player Y name here) is projected as a lottery pick and is a deadly 3-point shooter. Our point guard (insert player Z here) is also one of the best freshmen in the (insert conference name here) and can handle defensive pressure easily.

I don't think you've ever faced anything like what we have. I don't know anything (at all) about Iowa State other than you are very good offensively under coach Hoiberg, but bad defensively and rebounding. Unfortunately, that won't fare well against our top (insert Kenpom, NET, RPI, BPI, Sagarin - whatever favors their team).

Thanks for welcoming me and looking forward to the great banter with Iowa State fans!

Some people this week. Probably.

What other kind of things do we always hear from opposing fans when they come here? I tried to mention as many as I could remember So many of the same things year after year.
I always get topless photos from them. Gets kinda old.

Wherever I go, there I am.
The worst case of this was when we played Nevada. They were a 12 seed supposedly loaded with unguardable future NBA lottery picks. We beat them fairly comfortably and I don't think a single player from that roster ever played an NBA game.
I seem to recall some Notre Dame players and fans who thought they were well prepared for Hoiball because they had played a game against De Paul.

That MF was awkward AF. I hope Abdelmassih didn't pay too much for that one.
I remember reading a blurb/tweet at that time somewhere along the lines of, "Iowa State is looking to set a record for the most guys on a roster named George who don't spell their name G-E-O-R-G-E."
