How big is the K-State game now?

[CycloneVet]

Ranked #4, 4-1 vs top 25, beat Kansas, Michigan State, and Michigan, and out of 4 losses 3 were by 5 points or less.

Clones21 is right Duke sucks

I like Rivers....but other than him I just don't think Duke will make a very good run in the tourney this year. I think Iowa State could beat them without even having a great shooting night.

Maybe not but they have proven themselves over the course of the year by winning some tough games, I prefer to look at the past not try and predict the future.

+1. Like that UNC game @ UNC...I am not a Duke fan, but I consider coach K to be the best in the biz.

1. How do you know 21 wins 99.8% sure gets us in?
2. We beat Baylor at home last year.

We've never lost to Baylor in Hilton. Not just last year. They never seem to show up whenever we play them in Ames.

I agree that the bubble is relatively weak. Still have to take care of business though. Can't be arrogant, Son.

FIFY

no comment.

I'll be stunned if we beat K State. Absolutely stunned. Beating Baylor wouldn't stun me. I frankly give us almost no chance to beat K State. We pulled it out of our arse just to beat them at home and now they are tough *******.

 

[oldman]

No offense, you do take a lot of heat here, but Baylor hit some ridiculous shots against us, we didnt hit any, and we out-boarded them. They are soft and I promise we will play them tougher at home than we did down there. Plus the crowd will be downright hostile to Acy because of how he showboated against us down there. They dont play well in Ames I dont believe as well.

CFH had one day to prepare for a Top 10 team in an away game. Watched the highlights Sunday nite. ISU stayed close enough to keep it interesting, even with less than 5 minutes to play. I think CFH should start Railey and have him use his 5 fouls to hammer Acey everytime he goes to dunk. That should soften him up a bit.

Not trying to disprove anything you have said. That leads to an arguement. Cyclone fans shouldn't argue with each other. Should just discuss. Bubble is weak. Iowa State isn't even on the "Bubble" according to alot of experts. They are already in according to them. Cyclones will get in. End of convo.

The Clones are in RIGHT NOW but there could be a 4 game losing streak to account for come selection time. I'm not predicting that but it could be a brutal reality. We would be the definition of a bubble team at that point.

If we win 2 more games we are in...against anyone.

Bigger than a bread basket.

Well clones21 since you have declared us dead 50 times and said we are not making the tourny. None of the games are Important anymore so we might as well lose them right? You have thrown thos team under the bus so many times that none should be big any longer. Right?

I thought he gave up after Drake...

 

[mj4cy]

I don't think we're fighting KSU for a seed. I think we're jockeying for a better seed at this point. We'll likely face them 2 more times yet.

 

[Tailg8er]

I know we have TTU tomorrow, but I think my local high school team could beat TTU . Anyways....


With K-State beating Mizzou it makes our game with them BIG. I know alot of people were aiming in on the Baylor @ home game for the biggest game yet, but I think the K-State game is now. K-State has a GREAT chance at winning out IF they beat us. We need to take care of business down there. I know standings don't matter when it comes to Tourney talk, but the game will be freaking huge for us. Need our A game on.

99.8% positive your local high school team would get destroyed...

I had it at 98.7%...

 

[Spam]

I had it at 98.7%...

But what if we put together a bball team from CF posters? Imagine how many Big 12 teams they could beat. No wait, let's make it better. What if they were also coached by a staff selected from CF posters.

They could any team in the world.

Even better than your 98.7%. At least 99.1%, in that case.

In other news, Illinois and Northwestern lost. Stick a fork in Illinois, and NW is going to have to do something amazing to get back into it.

Going to Iowa City and beating the upstart Hawkeyes, lead by legendary coach Fern McGuffery, wouldn't be amazing enough?

Bigger than a bread basket.

Not to be a ****, but I think the line from the old tv show, What's My Line?, is, "Is it bigger than a bread box." not bread basket.

Carry on...
