*** Official #10 IOWA STATE vs Cincinnati Game(Day) Thread ***

[ISUTex]

Was anyone else incredibly underwhelmed by Cincy’s crowd?

Not really. I think they just knew. We killed every single chance at a run they had.

 

[cdface]

They were good on Saturday against Houston. I think our guys just took them out of it

To add to this, I wasn't scared of the Cincy game until I saw how their crowd willed them back into that game. It's a good sign we kept them out of it.

 

[cytor]

ISU was definitely the better team. My biggest fear was they would go off and hit 15 threes and win by one possession.

 

[Kinch]

Yeah, I know who he is. I just didn't remember who was on the graphic. We have a lot of really good ones to choose from. Plus Terrance Allen then Gary Tompkins were the PGs during his time.

Put the Roland Rocket on that list, too.

 

[CoKane]

Really good performance. Cincy never got into any sort of flow at all. Being able to do that on the road is a very good thing

Danville and Mrs. Danville will be deep in enemy territory behind the Cincy Bench.

Love the hostile environments.

Like our D to turn them over.

Let’s build a lead and hold on for dear life.

UC 71
ISU 75

Go Cyclones!

Well, that works.

What a team performance.

Defense was Ball Hawking all night.

Good environment.

Fans were very appreciative of how well we played.

Great team win. Many deserving candidates but Curtis is my player of the game. He made some clutch plays and big buckets in the 2nd half. But they all had good moments. This team is so deep and they don’t really get rattled like other teams do against us. THIS IS FUN!

Two different floaters in the lane at key moments when our offensive was stagnant. His defense, can't sat enough. He'll be a catalyst to our success the rest of this season

Surprisingly criticism free. It's nice.

Noticeable absence from the whiners.

 

[CycloneVet]

Hope Jamie has that checkbook ready this offseason. Another very solid win.

The timing for a raise and the money available should be good. Pay that man his money

 

[GTO]

They might have blown their wad on Saturday. Their crowd was great during that game against Houston.

Agreed. Everyone knows there's less Jizzle the second time.

 

[CycloneErik]

I know Fred had some talented teams. But this the best team ISU has had since LE's guys.

And by team a bunch of guys who are just SIC on how connected on the court they are.

This is the first team that just might be more fun than Fred's teams. It's crazy.

 

[Kinch]

Yeah, I know who he is. I just didn't remember who was on the graphic. We have a lot of really good ones to choose from. Plus Terrance Allen then Gary Tompkins were the PGs during his time.

Terrance Allen is one of my favorite Cyclones.

 

[CycloneVet]

Maybe just me? He seemed a little sore at the end?

You’d be sore too have to carry around his giant nuts

Pretty complimentary group of fans in that board

 

[NWICY]

Was anyone else incredibly underwhelmed by Cincy’s crowd?

When we held them off by 7 or more it was hard for them to get into it. I thought in the 1st half(?) when they made that run they started to get fired up.
After all the close losses it takes a toll on the crowd also, tough to believe when you've seen so many close ones slip away. That is a pretty decent ball club they have though.

 

[NENick]

Excellent road performance! Once again, everyone who played contributed. Rob Jones early, Curtis Jones late. Pav, Hasan great off the bench. Milan solid in all phases. Tre with 2 huge FTs. (Love that TJ plays that offense lineup late.) Lipsey and Gilbert outstanding throughout.

I can't find anything for ZRF to critique.

Now don't overlook TTech Saturday. Beat the hell outta Toussaint.

 

[HFCS]

This is the first team that just might be more fun than Fred's teams. It's crazy.

Im more of an offense fan by nature, but the defense was really fun to watch tonight. I’m guessing that’s the most forced shot clock violations in a long time.
