I don't. They have some guys who are pretty active, and some guys who basically go through the motions. MSU got some open shots whenever they ran a coherent offense (which wasn't all that often).
Quick look at Pitt
- Thread starter dahliaclone
- Start date
Pitt will settle for jumpers, that usually plays into what we want teams to do.
Metrics, Shmetrics.
It is an NCAA Tournament game vs. an ACC team in ACC Country.
It will be tough.
Let's Go State!

Point being a team can shed trends in a one game situation.
'They're soft, don't do much, ISU plays in the Big 12' goes out the window.
Of course they can, but I like the matchup. If we play our game, we win. Simple as that.
Pitt Top 50 NET Wins. Also, Mississippi State was up by 1 with 38 seconds to go. MSU missed two layups and one 3 pointer at the end.

How on earth will we stop Pitt’s baseline drive?
I agree. Obviously it’s the NCAA tournament so absolutely anything is on the table, but the tournament is all about matchups and quite frankly, this matchup favors Iowa State.
Well we're the better team. If the refs get whistle happy we're in for a dog fight.......
If we are allowed to play the way Mississippi State was allowed to play, which was very physical, we should have no problems with Pitt.
If it’s called tight…all bets are off.

Remember how cocky Notre Dame was back in 2013? We rolled them like a dung beetle does a piece of sh!7.

Maybe more Baylor in how you beat them. Run them off the 3P line and offensive rebound. They got handled by Duke which is one of two good defenses they played. They beat Virginia because they went to the line 13 more times but Virginia's defense isn't like ours. I'm not sure what Duke's defense is structured like.
I'd say ISU by 10-12.

ISU went un-Hoiball that night. ND had 17 turnovers and ISU went inside after leading the country in threes.
