This has to be an all time **** offensive performance in the ncaa tournament. What is the record for least points scored?

20 is the fewest all-time. 29 is the fewest in the shot-clock era. 31 is the fewest that Iowa state has scored. The 41 today is our lowest in the shot-clock era.

I thought the broadcast said 1997 for last time a team only made 1 three

That was the last time Iowa State only made 1 three.

Not the ending or way we wanted to see these guys go out but still another solid year to build on the future is really bright.

I want to thank everyone who gave a rating to any of the gameday thread OP's whether it was 1 game or every game.

Special shout outs to a few people. My gif partner in crime @GTO can't wait for those Milan and Omaha streetfighters next year.

To the regulars who gave a mention: @NWICY @t-noah @carvers4math @simply1 @CyNews @CyBobby

To those who pregame posts got me to add a new twist to the gameday thread in my pre-game predictions contest thanks as well.

See everyone in the fall (even though I'll still be here in the off-season) when football returns.

Thank you as always, Rulzzz! You make gameday more fun, and help make CF special! Thanks also to GTO for his gameday gifs!

See you in the fall, or sooner!

Battling through a brutal big 12 schedule the way they did to go out like this is like coming back from Afghanistan and dying from food poisoning on the plane ride back.

ISU is the main character from All Quiet on the Western Front

I was going to give this a like. Alas, I can only give it an 'informative'. Not really a distinction we can like much. But thanks for the info, I guess.

I’m shocked, sad and frustrated. The players were in a bad place mentally today. Hard to imagine but that’s life. Wish I didn’t care. I bet if you play that game again Cyclones win by 20 plus. Watching the Iowa game left the reality that this team can go ice cold at any moment. Probably cost us 6 or 7 games in the last 5 minutes…

 

[Daserop]

That's a good idea.

Literally everything I said was fact.

 

[67CY]

Well maybe the women can go further.

 

[Wally86]

Thankfully that season is over.

Had a good run in January where it looked like we might amount to something but I've never had less fun watching a Cyclone team the last 6 weeks in my entire life.

2-22?

All I'm stating are facts. I was correct in my assessment of the game at halftime and people did indeed continue to watch the game.

No, you weren’t just stating facts. Read my posts and you will see the difference between just stating facts and stating facts along with being an ass. Yours is the latter.

 

[twincyties]

We held Pitt to 14 made field goals and lost by 18. That has to be some kind of record.

 

[LtRaczack]

Prohm 2-22 you must be really young. I'm impressed with your sentence structure.

Legions of supporters will attack for just stating that little fact

 

[SEIOWA CLONE]

After eating Mexican and a few beers, let me say, that while that game was beyond horrible, overall the season was a success. Could we have done more, sure we could of, but for a team that was picked 9th in the preseason, to finish in 5th place and make the tournament is about all anyone could ask for in year two of the staff. Beats the hell out of where we were 2 seasons ago. The recruiting is stepping up big time, the best ISU has ever seen, next year with the new players coming in, I expect us to challenge for the league title until the end.

Good things are happening around both the Men's and Women's BB programs, let's not let one horrible game in the tournament be the defining moment in the program.

2-22?

This was worse than that, at least with 2-22 all you could do was laugh at the complete ineptitude. I care now, I was complete apathetic then .

 

[NWICY]

31, I think? Second was 34, and third was around 41? I saw the graphic. I can't remember exactly, but this is close. We are in the running for around 3rd place I think. Dubious honor.

Yeah the other low scores were from the 1940s. It is a dubious distinction that we captured today.

 

[t-noah]

Flop

I left the game (went outside to plant some seedlings) with 6 min left in the 1st half. Pretty hard to watch. And I thought maybe it will change our luck. Didn't work.

 

[helechopper]

Hey guys, I just got home and can’t wait to watch the game!
