*** Official #7 IOWA STATE vs #1 Houston Game(Day) Thread ***

[Yaz]

Watson looks like he is checking in.

Game's in Kansas City, dummy.

Unpossible, I was promised Omaha with a 2 seed

 

[Cyched]

Not sure this is the team to lob against

 

[CycloneErik]

Anyone else feed horrific??

You watching through the ESPN app or Hulu app? The latter is gonna work a lot better.
Thanks to game threads (probably @alarson ) for spreading that around.

How do 3 refs miss 3 fouls on one trip down the court?

 

[tim_redd]

Call foul please

 

[I-stateTheTruth]

King got hacked

I cringed that he threw that lob though. Seemed low percentage when he let go.

That didn’t make sense to me. We had a 3 on 2 and didn’t push it or get an open three.

 

[ISU_Guy]

Captain obvious here...but I think we are going to find that CJones, Lipsey, Milan are going to have to get us close to 8-10 threes to win games like this. I would mix in getting the other team in foul trouble also.

 

[ClubCy]

Houston handles our ball pressure better than anyone. Need to keep forcing them to speed things up.

 

[cyfanbr]

That’s what Houston does to teams. Get them flustered, which leads to silly mistakes as their opponents rush through decisions. We already have at least 3 turnovers due to us feelings like we need to rush on a pass etc.

King has statistically been pretty poor on lobs this season too. And that was not a good one.

Ingenuity

Espn. Never had any problems before incl last night.

 

[I-stateTheTruth]

Nice to see Watson out there.

 

[jdoggivjc]

nice to stay with that fumbling possession at the end to get the basket

Fun if it works, but this is Houston, so it won't.

 

[Die4Cy]

KG took a hard foul

 

[jdoggivjc]

offensive foul >>> shot clock violation

 

[Bocy]

Nice ball movement, resulting in easy dunk. That's how you do it against Houston's D
