*** Official #6 IOWA STATE vs #2 Houston Game(Day) Thread ***

[CYedUp]

Just need good looks and better rebounding

 

[CY88CE11]

Gotta love their fans booing the one and only foul that could’ve been called on two players.

Yeah, that was pretty blatant. But we're the excessive booers.

 

[twincyties]

This is as brutal as expected.

 

[cyclo120]

Missing shots is one thing, but the defensive breadowns not helping baseline will kill us

 

[MushroomPinball]

Defense looks great, offense needs to settle the **** down

 

[Skyh13]

Refs gotta start calling the game a little tighter at least. Houston is currently allowed to be WAY too physical.

 

[Cyclonepride]

Defense has been excellent. Their defense has been better. Need to find some ways to get open shots (that aren’t rushed).

 

[Thomasrickj]

Oof.....smothered.

Any glimpse of good is met with a quick reaction by UH.

Need to calm down...and not over think it.

Yeah. It almost seems like we’re trying to do too much right now. We need to settle down on offense.

 

[jctisu]

Houston is so freaking good. And so are we. This is currently a “because it’s at Houston” game. Teams look very even mostly aside from their rebounding. But this looks completely different had we even connected on one of those threes.

Didn’t get absolutely destroyed out of the gates, so let’s see how the rest of the half plays out.

Like Rob’s fight tonight, but can’t be careless with the ball like that lob after the steal

 

[ChickenNuggetMan]

Didn't like Rob's layup? How about King's point blank shot. Those looked pretty good to me.

I’m at a bit of a delay - we had 2 points when I wrote that

 

[ClonerJams]

Guys, Houstons defense is really good. This isn't a surprise. We'll adjust.

There is a lot pushing off from Houston’s guards.

 

[ISU_Guy]

Full blown offensive struggle.
Going to need some quick ball movement and Cjones, tamin and Milan to hit some 3s

 

[helechopper]

Guess what…

We need to hit our shots or this could snowball hard on us. 1-8 from the field isn’t gonna cut it.

 

[ISU_Guy]

 

[Walden4Prez]

I’m just gonna rewind and watch the gargantuan fun bags on that VA Tech band geek bounce in slowmo.

 

[cal-cyclone]

We just need to stay close less than 10 until we figure out how to generate some open shots.

 

[Drew0311]

Make some shots and we are in this fame
