Want this one bad. We have a 5 game losing streak down there. Time to put an end to that.

First

The line starts as ISU -3. Grab some boards, get some steals and score some in transition, we should cover .

Do we get taken off ESPNN eventually once they realize the conference champion deserves better?

 

[cyclonpediaJoe]

9 hours of work, an hour of grilling, and flipping on the game! This would be an excellent road win and keep the momentum going in the right direction. Was thinking last night how I was way more excited for this game than the national championship game lol.

After dialing in so hard to football, it's like these midweek conference games are a fun little surprise addition to my week.

Baylor - guard play in a closed scrimmage

Beat Baylor

 

[SCyclone]

Thanks Rulzzz! One thing we can always count on is your game day threads! And you are right, time for that streak to be over. Maybe Drew will set a record for time-out usage.

**** Baylor.

 

[Cyclonepride]

Play defense well, rebound reasonably well, and share the ball. If we do that, we win.

I'll take ISU 77-68

 

[ca4cy]

Big one. We can't afford to take a step back if we're going to be a legit contender. Ball movement will be key against the zone.

 

[RedDog]

Amazing stat of the day: Iowa State has forced a turnover on 26% of the possessions in the two Big 12 games.

Oh man, why would you do this to me? I could and probably will watch this all day now. Don't you know I have to work?

 

[SerenityNow]

This could very easily be a letdown game, but I think coach gets them ready, and the player do what is needed to win.

ISU 77
Baylor 69

A nice thing to knock out would be to win there...how long's it been?

This is how we beat their zone: defensive turnovers and fast break layups. Pull away in last 3 minutes when we clamp down on D.
