*** Official #3 IOWA STATE vs Colorado Game(Day) Thread ***

[twincyties]

It is hard to imagine anybody has had as good back-to-back transfer classes as ISU.

Like usual, media completely underestimated their impact. None that heralded but giving our team exactly what we need.

With exception of Milan and Lipsey our major contributors in TJs tenure have come through the portal and none were that big of names.

Post game show from the best in the biz!

 

[fsanford]

CU had 10 more turnovers, 7 fewer rebounds, 11 fewer shot attempts, 14 fewer foul shots and 11 fewer makes.

ISU did not shoot well but the above helped get them that 10 point win

I was blown away. High level talk about Iowa state and the whole conference. Plus highlights.

I have been tuned into this show for a few years for basketball. Do yourselves a favor and watch the CBS Inside College Football show next season. Same deal there. Just a way better and unbiased product that gives way more insight than the ESPN crap. I really hope CBS muscles out ESPN in the next round of contracts.

I thought the announcers tonight hit on the head talking about ISU finding really good role players from good MidMajor teams that come in, fit in, work and WIN!

Yep... you trash the team incorrectly, then run off when called out. Sounds about right.

Funny how people think they can call our own players horrible or lazy and then not get called out when they’re proven embarrassingly wrong. If you’re willing to post a player is “horrible tonight” you better be willing to take the crap you deserve

The fact they couldn't throw it in the ocean from 3 is what kept this from being a blowout.

 

[cyclonestunners]

Enjoy the win loser.

Another banner response. Matches your bad takes during the game as well. If you throw trash, be prepared to be called out on it.

How great is it to have Colorado back?
Playing there brought back a lot of memories, even though most were bad.

It just "feels right" playing them again.

Definitely. Hard to believe it’s already been 14 years.

Although I’ve quickly gotten used to TCU and WVU, and likely will for BYU, Cincinnati, Arizona, Utah etc, nothing feels more right than Big 8.

Still remember watching McD open his first year of Big 12 play in Boulder

 

[BWRhasnoAC]

Alright time for some brownies and a kumbaya fire circle you filthy animals.

 

[rochclone]

Agree...we better understand that as fans that ISU is getting everyone's best shot...every game. The team knows that. I hope our fans know how tough the road is to be the hunted...not the hunter. Road wins are golden! And we just got one where I'm sure other teams may not.

Even Kansas teams went 13-5 or 14-4 in the Big 12 when they were winning the conference. Very seldom does a team go 16-2 or 17-1. A 15-5 conference record probably win the conference this season. We are still going to lose some games. Sit back and enjoy this season…it’s going to be special.

Yeah and as much as I dislike Mizzou they belong here too.
The B8/B12 tournaments with them, KU, and KState just had a big level of HATRED.

 

[cycloneworld]

This team has the rare quality where someone is always stepping up their play to cover for someone else’s off night. The team chemistry is awesome. Championship teams are made like this.

Yep. Shot 42% from the field and 22% from 3 and won by 10. On the road.

Cmon guys, we won!

 

[Cupped]

Agree. His first conference road game at altitude. People being too hard on him tonight

Not disagreeing at all but will point out that Jackson played twice in Boulder when with Washington State.

 

[CySmurf]

Anyone?

I thought on the replay Chatfield touched it downward out of bounds. I think the review was correct.

Lol, what bad takes? Continue to be the white knight you seem to think you are.

Yep...but it's good to know there are multiple ways this team can win

 

[Clone95]

I just love this team. I have never been able to watch the cyclones with so much confidence. Even when we’re down it just feels like we’re going to get the stops and buckets we need to retake the lead and keep it.

I think 13-5 won it once (2013?) Do remember 14-4 more frequent.
