*** Official #6 IOWA STATE vs Kansas State Game(Day) Thread ***

[CapnCy]

Just atrocious offense keeping KSU in this game

Yep. Everyone (except Curtis) seem rushed and out of control.

We had a chance there a couple minutes ago to go up 10-12, but now they are within a basket

Milan looks lost

 

[twincyties]

K State 4-21 and down one. Just terrible.

 

[CYedUp]

This kstate team is hot garbage

 

[CydeofFries]

I'm not gonna call out individual missed calls, but we have NOT been outfouling them 7-2

 

[madguy30]

We are missing on so many chances to bury them.

Among some other possibilities impatience on offense might be the thing that gets this team in trouble in an NCAA tourney game.

They get out ahead of the skis a bit on these drives when kicking back and resetting at least makes the opponent have to defend and maybe opens up for a better look.

 

[ISU_Guy]

is there something going on with the guards and driving to the rim? they will have 3 drives that look like the Ballard versus Norwalk JV team, then they will make me eat my words 2 mins later and get some unreal And1. Our defense has played well enough to be up 20 right now with a functioning offense. Hope we can get this figured out now that K-state is finding themselves.

 

[BigJCy]

Milan has passed up a ton of 3s he should be shooting the past month and a half

Yep, which tells me where his confidence level is right now.

 

[Malone]

@CycloneVet @madguy30 some valid concerns brought up in this thread. As the self-appointed arbiters of gameday thread decorum, what say you?

 

[Final42b]

We’re getting hammered down low with no calls but then called for the same thing on the other end.

 

[jctisu]

I get we are damn good on defense, and thank God. But our offense absolutely needs to get better or the NCAA Tournament run we all think we can have is going to get cut short.

I’ve been in the camp that it’s all ok these last few games, and we will be fine. But damn this offense is really poor for the past couple of weeks.

Seems to coincide with Milan being on the floor. Guy isn’t contributing much. Defense isn’t bad but not great. Offense is atrocious and he either turns it over or slows the flow. I

They are going in with real hesitation and foul searching. Go with aggression and elevate

Some bad stats you have

 

[Jkclone15]

The level of physicality in this game is affecting the offense a lot I think. Seems like the refs have adopted the mentality "if everything is a foul, then nothing is a foul".

 

[jctisu]

Good God BRE go up strong with that. We are so hesitant when driving today.

Which would be great if they hadn't called us for 7 of them
