Shannon has been rolling for a couple weeks now. He is due for a clunker game and hopefully it will be against us.

We have 5 days to rest/prep.

A clash of 2 styles. Let's go!

What changed? ISU grad school? Are you an Illinois native? (Just figuring out who we're dealing with here. Heh ;-)

The less you know on this, the better.

This is a Final 4 level game. Complete toss up, both teams have high level experienced guards and athletic forwards. Illinois more offensive minded, Iowa State more defensive minded but I'd give the edge to Iowa State's offense over Illinois defense so that might be the decider. Gonna be a long 5 days dissecting this matchup, can't wait.

Wrong. We’re the worst 2 seed, or so I’ve been told

By our own AD. Smh

Any message boards where we can read about how they'll destroy us?

 

[DrClone]

yep. I'm guessing the first game.

What time is first game?

 

[Cyclonepride]

As much as any game in recent memory, this one will be about who can best dictate their own style onto the game. Such contrasting styles.

My favorite part about this team, though, is that they’ve shown the ability to win either way.

What time is first game?

I think one of the regions tips around 530ish and the other around 6-615?

Weird seeing a Brad Underwood team not so good in defense. I remember his Steven F. Austin team smothering teams defensively. He carried it over to OSU. He ended up changing the OSU defense from on the ball, in-your-face pressure to backing off of that. Interesting he went more offensive while TJ went more defensive as they advanced in coaching.

Weird for us too... we were great on Defense up until this year

It's all icing from here but a win over them would be outstanding.

You realize he had to leave the room and ISU had no Big12 representation

Also an Illinois native (don't mention 2005) and I'm just awaiting the texts from my dad. No family attended but he's always been a fan. I can't recall these two playing in a while.

Too lazy to look it up but I feel like we played them in Maui w/ Halliburton and shayock.

What time is first game?

Probably around 6.

Shannon is the real deal and he is playing well, Illinois has good size, and can move the ball well. Defense at times is an afterthought, but when they are hitting their shots, they are as good as anyone in the country.

So are we
