**** WBB: ISU vs #4 Baylor Saturday 12 pm ESPN+ GAME THREAD ****

[Cysister]

I have the Hulu, Disney and ESPN+ bundle. Typically all the ESPN+ games show up when I go to the hulu sports menu. Today I had to go specifically to the ESPN+ app and login.

Hulu has been bad lately. I have added the ISU teams to My Stuff so that I can always find the game.

What, you don't want to watch handball?

Their algo has been so bad lately

When cruising through the ESPN+ upcoming my eye is looking for the ISU logo and they did not use it this time. So took me a couple passes to find the game

This crew of refs should be suspended for that end of quarter play. Seriously. That was as obvious of call as you'll see, but they got caught not thinking it was going to matter. They were no better than fans on that play. Not only does Baylor get 3 points, but it would've been ISU ball on our end with a chance to get a shot off. That is egregious.

Interesting MLK and George Raveling story from Walters.

They are hoping we don’t lose by 3 or less.

This game is still very winnable. Just need to limit the turnovers. Not overly impressed by Baylor in that first half.

Agreed. But we need some of other players to score some buckets. Crooks has more than 50% of our points and that is not a recipe for success. Our bench needs to find the range as well; in previous games, they've contributed mightily - averaging almost 20 ppg. So far today, they've scored only 2 point.

Baylor’s #11 limped off. Came back with a brace. Ryan drive right at her for the layup. Smart.

 

[geewago]

Clones are beating themselves. Ryan had a horrible half - bad passing repeatedly.. Looks like Diew is having her usual "every other bad game" today. Clean up the turnovers and take it into the post more and things should change. It seems that teams still think that Baylor is still strong in the post and still play them that way. Kansas took it to them and took it in stride.

 

[Cyched]

Tie game!

Aubrey showing some Joens grit and savvy in the rebound. She tried to do it in the previous play too.

 

[jdubs]

Joens replacing Diew was big. She's making plays.

All of those Joens girls rebound

Juicy wiggle? Really doesn’t seem right. I know we’re tied, still…

I thought the BYU game was worst. They were constantly grabbing and holding her arm. New respect what dominant post players have to endure in the game.

One of the reasons/excuses I heard for Shaq's free throw shooting was his wrists were all mangled from NBA-sized people hacking them for years.

 

[CYDJ]

Kelsey Joens works on offensive rebounds like Tamin does. She has been crossing the lane and trying to time the jump to get it several times. I hadn't noticed that before. Heady play when it works.

What would you wait for?

 

[CYDJ]

What has Edwards done to suggest you don't at least fly at her when she has it at the 3 point line? Seems we are leaving her open and she is hitting them all.

 

[Ms3r4ISU]

What would you wait for?

Later in the half.

Emily is using #11 in the lane with the cut back soft hook.
