Would be great if he gets a bucket ot two and jusstarts in 'just playin' ball' mode.

Would be nice if he actually got a foul called on him. He got hacked numerous times last night when he went in for a shot.

I think the line only being -1.5 for ISU is interesting. I can't think of a reason we aren't favored by more except the cache of named 'Drew' and 'Baylor'

As a rule, betting on your on team is a good way to lose money since you are never objective, but I see really tempting value.

I would bet that's what KenPom has the line at. 90% of lines just copy KenPom.

I’d like to see continued growth with offensive movement. It limits turnovers and gets better shot opportunities. Just like last night.

Last game vs Baylor we had a massive amount of offensive rebounds and Turned them over 20 times and still lost.

The reason? They shot 23 three pointers and hit over 50% (7-9 in the first half 5-14 2nd half). We were only 19-32 from the line.

I look for regression for them from 3. And progression for us from the line.

Confidence building.

Hilton South building.

TJ motivating.

I like our chances!

I don't have KP lines, but BartTorvik has it -3, and they usually aren't very different from KP.

Add in that there's going to be thousands of Cyclone fans.

I am sitting in the lobby of my hotel in KC and enjoying a coffee and watching the Kansas State fans streaming out of the hotel with their bags! Fun morning!

Baylor is a scary team because they probably have the two most talented guys on any Big 12 roster in Walter and Missi.
Is Love healthy yet?

I've bet against us all year. That was a good way to lose money but we kept winning so I couldn't stop. You're all welcome.

Seems like the ball is usuallly inside the rim and rattles out....

9:30 for me, dude. I'll be fighting sleep the whole time and then afterward will have insomnia.

I'd like to see CuJo drive to the basket, more often, like he did late in the game yesterday and drew a foul. That was the first time I've seen him go all the way through the defender. It'd be great if he could add that to his floater.

I was hoping he'd rage and get up and dunk it on one but I think he's still in thinking too much mode.

Hate to bring 'body language' into it but he looks like he just wants to do really well which imo is great on how the program operates.

We're not going 1-14 again from downtown.

From your lips to Tyrus' ears...

strength vs. strength (Baylor offense vs. Iowa St defense)

weakness vs. weakness (Baylor defense vs. Iowa State offense)

So, turn them over and get them in foul trouble. Shoot better than 20% from 3.

Step 3, Profit.
