*** Official #23 Tennessee vs #6 IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

[cyclonestunners]

Lovely evening to you too

Nah... just a lovely evening to those trashign a college kid and guessing his injury isnt that bad, amiright?!?

 

[ianoconnor]

Rebounds are 40 to 18.

Insanity.

I legitimately don't understand how Tennessee isn't winning by 37 points right now.

Because they are atrocious shooters. They brick shots so bad and are trained to get these crazy bouncing rebounds.

 

[LtRaczack]

I'm 100% sure they have a game plan.

TN has covered it up.

TN covered the free throw line pretty well too.

 

[ClonesTwenty1]

Jefferson couldn’t even jump during the shoot around. Idk why people think he could play through that.

He was never coming back this tournament

 

[HoustonClone]

In the end they’re losers who never went past a sweet 16

Just stop. I mean this team won the second most in Iowa State history.

 

[1SEIACLONE]

Same things killed us the entire year, free throws and lack of 3 point shooting. As the announcers were saying, if ISU was making free throws they would be right in this, but we are not. You can get by without our lack of rebounding IF you are making your three pointers and making free throws, we did neither tonight.

 

[Cyburbbalz]

They wouldn’t let him jump at shoot around…

You think he’s even 50% at this point?

FFS man…

He made a million freaking dollars to not at least try when it counted most

 

[Revolution]

Tell me how many teams in the tournament are playing without their All American/best player?

Excuses

 

[BigJCy]

Fitting way for Milan's night to end. Getting it stuffed back in your face.

 

[Raiders70]

Michigan will be a double digit winner over Tennessee. We just got run out of the arena by a fringe Top 25 team. Second half effort was pretty poor.

 

[Old87]

If any thing good can come out of this game it should be used to show Milan that he needs to toughen up and play a man’s game. 6-8 and zero rebounds for the game. Constantly pushed around under the basket. Needs to spend more time in the weight room to put on some strength. Muscle will build confidence and swagger.

 

[fsanford]

Yet another season ISU is ranked in the top 10 all year and can’t play up to its seed when it matters

Did losing a an all American NBA first round pick have any impact on this years bunch at all?

 

[madguy30]

TN covered the free throw line pretty well too.

Yes that's the same thing as defending.

Good job.

 

[ClonesTwenty1]

Always next year

 

[Cardinal2001]

Cyclones, what a year. Came in not expecting anything, and we were RIGHT THERE again, for the year. What could have been, but thanks for the ride.

 

[Thomasrickj]

At least we know Momcilovic is coming back. He’s not nba material.

 

[CysEyesVet]

Tell me how many teams in the tournament are playing without their All American/best player?

Oh like Jefferson being out there would have suddenly changed every single dynamic of the game. I’m not saying he wouldn’t be a positive factor but to say he’s the only factor is a joke.

 

[LtRaczack]

20 rebound disadvantage but within striking distance is mind boggling.

Striking distance? When did we get within 2 points?

 

[Revolution]

How long till the hype train for next years team starts?

 

[cyfanbr]

People we are down our all-American. Yes we had a chance to win today still, but come on. The team tonight was not supposed to be how this went down. Bad break. It sucks that it happened again like Niang. Go out. Get laid. Smell the roses. Don’t let the trolls get to you. We have a good coach and our program is in good hands. Stay the course and we will get rewarded eventually, I promise.
