*** Official Dayton vs #5 IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

[Prone2Clone]

Their guard play is not as good as Daytons. Dayton guards are good

Smith was killing us.

Don't love only having a 15 hour turnaround between now and the next game.

 

[HFCS]

Dayton is playing well enough to win most of these other tournaments and likely to go 0-3. The seeding was odd but the field is no joke.

 

[Clonedogg]

It's great to get conference-level games in the early season. The physicality of this game felt Big XII-ish.
Is Colorado a home/away this season?

Yes we will play CU 3 times

 

[ClonerJams]

Get ready to learn Colorado buddy

 

[Cupped]

Wow! We will play Colorado 3 times in the regular season! Hope they suck matching up against us!

 

[NorthCyd]

I watched a lot of Colorado against MSU and their offense looked like dog ****. I didn't see much of today's game but obviously it must have been a lot better.

 

[RagingCloner]

2 emotional losses is tough in this tourney. UConn is going to roll Dayton

Ah, I see. We'll play them at sea level then on 12/30 we play them in Boulder @ 5,000+ feet.

They will be fine. They are youngsters, and in some of the best shape of their lives.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that's the worst defensive performance we will have all year. Glad we are coming home with at least 1 win.

Agreed. One thing we know about TJ teams, they are always elite defensively. They'll get it fixed. And Dayton is just scary good offensively for a mid major. They're gonna make some noise in March.

Maybe. Hurley might just take the team down the spiral with him.

 

[Marcelason78]

Is Keyshon the best finisher at the rim that we’ve ever had?

Doubt the extra 5 hours Colorado got gives them an edge.

Not ideal but oh well.

 

[cyclonestunners]

Gotta love Jefferson proving the haters wrong tonight

Playing in Boulder was usually not a good thing for ISU.

 

[CoachHines3]

Talk about a swing in KenPom

Offense 22 —> 9
Defense 4 —> 15

 

[fcclone]

At least this probably ends up as a quad 1 win even if Dayton goes 0-3

Dayton will leave Hawaii with games against North Carolina, ISU, and UConn.

No matter how you slice it that is some tough competition.

 

[fsanford]

25 of 29 on free throws...gotta be best night in the TJ era. 86%. Just wow!
