*** Official Kansas State vs #3 IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

In before you’re told that it really isn’t, and you need to watch more college basketball

Count me in then! Have you done the watching sports thing yet?

This is not a bad K State team. The -14.5 seemed high based on their last couple games

Dude, they’re horrible. We are just playing some of the dumbest basketball I’ve seen.

This separates us from Houston. Houston murders **** teams like ksu right from tip off.

 

[CapnCy]

We need to dial up our defense a bit to force turnovers. As everyone has said, less sloppy too.

 

[rosshm16]

This has been the story a lot lately. We shoot well, better than the opponent, but turn it over so much and give them so many second chances with ORBs that we get outscored.

I feel like defensively teams have us figured out a bit.

Deny cujo the ball and hand check keshon is effective against us. Well get some calls at home that we don't get on the road.

That may have been a new world record for late call.

Ref was waiting for it to go in, and when it didn't, call the foul.

 

[Old87]

What has happened to the flow of the offense? Too much dribbling followed by lazy passing results in a turnover machine.

They're 9-11, they're pretty bad.

 

[Thomasrickj]

We're back to 'blown lead' talk in the first half.

Drink.

I just did. Watching in Vegas at the Venetian sports book. Got a delicious espresso martini.

They are awful. Should be a game we win by 25+

I kind of appreciate them waiting. It was a lot of contact with the body.

 

[exCYtable]

Love to just play a clean game for once and not be frustrated for 2 hours, but not today. Again.

They're not awful as of late but that record is who they are overall.

ISU needs to get this figured out.

Heise is just becoming borderline unplayable at this point. When Milan returns, he’s going to be out of the rotation with how much better Watson has been than him.

We have too many guys in the rotation right now who are just zero threat to get their own shot.

That's gonna bite us in the ass come tournament time. It's been an issue for several weeks and does not get fixed.

 

[RezClone]

This is the definition of a bad kstate team

They are bad in that they will quit if things aren't going their way.

Probably a good spot for them effort wise, tho.

2 wins and a row and they knew ISU was gonna make this one personal.

Beat me to it. Was going to include Chat too though.

 

[cytor]

ISU looks lazy and disinterested.

 

[Malone]

West Virginia revealed the book on us - play our guards physically and we’ll force things that aren’t there. We’ll get flustered, over-dribble and either turn it over or force tough shots instead of moving the ball around. Az St, Arizona and now K State have followed up on that
