*** Official Oklahoma vs #8 IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

Getting out physicaled and OU is really throwing off our shots

Their length is a problem. Now I'm remembering that game better.

I'm not sure how much more of this offensive ineptitude I can watch. This is darn right pathetic. They have us well scouted and right now we are paralyzed on offense. I'm worried.

The bad part is at this point it’s totally mental. You know how bad you have been, but they need to string a few together here otherwise they will go into half and see they are 4/32 or something and that’s a mental hurdle to climb.

 

[Cyclonepride]

4-29 overall and 2-21 from 2. Not sure I’ve ever seen that. Just rushing when we should collect, and collecting when we need to rush.

 

[Cyclones01]

Well < 15% from the field through most of the first half and only down 4. Keep the defense up and hope the shots start to fall.

 

[AirWalke]

Ok, what the hell is this shot selection tonight? I never want to question our guy’s abilities but this is feels like the textbook definition of mailing it in.

 

[helechopper]

We’ll be okay. We just need to hit halftime and have a fresh start to this game. I mean, we can’t shoot any worse than we are now.

 

[Malone]

This team could really use practice on using pump fakes around the rim. This has been the worst offensive basketball of the season and in the stinkage range of the OSU game a couple years ago.

 

[trevn]

Looking for someone, anyone, to go through their defender in the lane instead of trying to pivot around them and avoid contact.

 

[Cyientist]

I liked it better when Lipsey was good at basketball.

 

[cyclonez7]

Do our guards have any better ideas than driving the lane contested and getting stuffed?

 

[NorthCyd]

We don't have a great offense, but holy **** we are not this bad. What is wrong with these guys. Maybe they are just hitting a wall late in the season.

 

[cycloneworld]

4-29 overall and 2-21 from 2. Not sure I’ve ever seen that. Just rushing when we should collect, and collecting when we need to rush.

And only down 4. We’ll be fine if we stop throwing prayers up at the rim. Move the damn ball.

 

[Old87]

Hopefully there will be some halftime adjustments. Need to quit forcing the ball into the paint. Oklahoma is too tall and long for that.

Need to get to the line to get some points at this point...maybe Milan or Curtis Jones.

That percentage is horrific.

 

[helechopper]

How can we be 1-17 from the field and only be down 4?

Welcome to the Big12.

 

[Pope]

We've hit one of our last 17 shots. Woooofffff!

 

[KCyclone2010]

Take the ball with authority to the rim. We are playing so freaking soft and scared

 

[Drew0311]

Imagine that. Its the game Gabe came back to

 

[twincyties]

Looking like one of our patented late season meltdowns. This is easily the worst we’ve looked all year.
