*** Official #12 IOWA STATE vs #17 BYU Game(Day) Thread ***

Won't win the game by making this a three point contest vs byu

Yea we seemed to have a plan early to go inside but that lasted 3 possessions and now we have below average shooters firing up threes.

 

[Marcelason78]

All of BYU’s three are wide open shots. This could be a long day with our best two defenders out.

 

[NoCreativity]

That official is so bad, saw him doing the Drake-UNI game and I think he did the first ISU-KSU game. He's so terrible at his job.

 

[Erik4Cy]

BYU has more "almost turnovers" than any team I've ever seen. They get away with so many lazy passes, tipped balls, lucky bounces right to them, etc.

 

[heitclone]

Feels like a long time since we got a shot up inside the 3pt line.

 

[madguy30]

How did BYU 8 games?

Basketball season has ebbs and flows and teams can gel late.

 

[cyatheart]

Only problem with byu is they just aren't that good defensively, they can beat anybody but they have a lot of holes defensively.

I’ve seen enough. Congrats to BYU on winning March Madness.

BYU ML +142 btw

I’ve seen enough. Congrats to BYU on winning March Madness.

Especially with Flagg going down today

 

[Malone]

A dramatic reminder that good offense beats good defense - especially at this time of the season. BYU is a well-oiled, confident machine. We look like we’re built from spare parts

A ways to go talent-wise

Let’s see if we can score of them then

 

[jspeels]

you guys do realize we are missing open looks, CUJO, Mom, Heise....hit shots like the other team is!

 

[Dgilbertson]

That’s two ticky tack of Cade. That second one was honestly ridiculous. Went back and watched it 3 times. How they called that on him is beyond me

 

[BigLame]

Their first couple 3s were contested, tough shots but the last few have been Wide open. Can't have the latter

 

[CyberJJJ]

I don't mind the threes if they come on a kick-out after we go to the post first and they double. Just don't take the first one so early in the shot clock when we have a shorter bench.

 

[Die4Cy]

I want them to play well but I do not care about this tournament at this point. We are praying some guys get healthy and one more nagging injury from being an early exit in the NCAA's.

Ironically I think a lot of that is their crazy level of confidence that everything they do and throw up there is gonna work.

Can't really say I blame them they way they play us every time.

 

[Stumbles]

BYU plays hoiball on offense.

 

[CyGuy5]

I don’t know why I’m even mad considering Cade Kelderman is getting minutes for this team but I’m still pissed
