    What is with the Refs?

    Iowa State’s offensive free throw rate is 35th nationally while Texas Tech is at 292. On the defensive side ISU fouls at the 22 lowest rate with Tech being at 154. In other words equal fouls being shot by both teams in this game does not indicate fine work by the refs.

    Firmly Entrenched-Iowa Everywhere

    Osen is better informed about ISU than Alec at this point. Alec’s appearances on KXNO are cringeworthy.

    King Mclure alert

    It feels like we lose most of the games he calls. He is the reverse Fran Fraschilla.

    Williams & Blum Wednesday: Cincy preview, Gonzaga to the Big 12

    That was an excellent podcast. I have a follow-up question. Did ESPN or Fox pay any pro rata for the new additions? If so, how much?

    Dedric Willoughby Passes Away at 49

    I agree. He averaged 25 ppg in 5 NCAA tournament games on teams that played real slow. I

    Your Stephen King novel rankings

    Stephen King has admitted that he enjoys the short story format best. No need to explain why something is happening and no need for a grand finale. It is not a Novel but My Pretty Pony is an outstanding short story.

    Surly in 3, 2, 1……

    Wow FAU is the lowest seeded team to make the final four since 11 seeded Loyola Chicago. I forget who they beat to make it back in 2018…

    Thanks Gabe

    Gabe worked hard and made a massive improvement year over year offensively. That shot he hit against TCU is an all timer.

    Quick look at Pitt

    I have wondered the same thing and haven’t heard an explanation yet.

    Jamie Dixon in trouble?

    Oh boy. They had some strange injury status contradictions involving Miles and Lampkin before we played them in Hilton.

    Hard to not like the draw for ISU here

    For sure. The fact remains that ISU doesn’t perform better in the 1st round than expected. The Hilton South effect occurs after the 1st round where we are a combined 8-1 in Big 12 tournament games during that period. ISU is actually 6-0 in conference championship games since 1996 as well.

    Hard to not like the draw for ISU here

    Over the past 17 years ISU is 5-12 in 1st round Big 12 Tournament games. I doubt the oddsmakers will be giving us any points for the venue on Thursday. The spread will be closer because we moved up 6 spots in Kenpom and it is neutral instead of a road game.

    T.J. Otzelberger press conference on Caleb Grill

    So they are not fans of Chris Grill. I believe he was Caleb’s high school coach.

    Iowa State OU postgame video

    The Oklahoma loss was pretty simple, 31% shooting just isn’t going to win a game against a top 75 opponent. If we shoot just 38% from the field we win.

    OU PG Bijan Cortes Taking A Leave Of Absence

    We tied Kansas for first in the Big 12 regular season standings. I’m so happy because that’s all that matters!

    Gabe shot selection

    ISU is an excellent offensive rebounding team(37 in kenpom) and are pretty bad at turning the ball over(especially lately). I would rather we get a darn shot up than turn it over.

    Beard to West Virginia

    I can’t imagine Huggins agreeing to this.

    Tre King next year?

    I stand corrected if a 5 ft 9 inch 36% career 3pt shooter from the valley is a “sniper”.

    Tre King next year?

    We definitely need another guard but unfortunately snipers don’t come cheap in the portal.
