*** Official Iowa State at TCU Game (Day) Thread ***

What happened to Kane? Is he okay?

Looked like the TCU player got him with a flying Hogue to the nuts.

Get Ejim and Kane back in the second half, ISU doesn't have to be too concerned about fouls and Fred gets them to push the pace. Should be in good shape.

Nice last possession by us! Good move inside by Niang!

I think we don't appreciate Niang and his scoring ability enough. His finishing moves around the basket have been amazing today. Old school stuff.

Bruce Pearl boooo.

Can any national pundits compliment ISU instead of predicting our demise?

 

[Dryburn]

Up two on a team that is 0-13 in conference play. Yikes! Somebody needs to wake them up.

These slow starts will kill you in the NCAA. Those teams won't let you back in.

Typical Big 12 officiating- swallow whistles when ISU drives to the hoop. If a forearm to the head is not a foul when Kane is driving, what is?

Making some outside shots would be nice.

The last minute of that half is why Fred is a future NBA head coach. Perfectly done.

There must be a Big 12 rule against Iowa State getting any chance for an "and one".

 

[kilroy]

It seems like TCU is making pretty good contact (including arm slaps) on most of our drives to the hoop and they are only calling them about 1/4 of the time.

Get Ejim and Kane back in the second half, ISU doesn't have to be too concerned about fouls and Fred gets them to push the pace. Should be in good shape.

These great points, nothing else to add to them.

Thought so until I saw the replay and he wasn't touched.

Got him on the arm. Don't think that one was particularly bad but there's been a pattern if is getting fouled on drives and no call so far.

Ugly half. Gotta come out in the 2nd half strong

 

[kilgore_trout]

his left one is.

What happened to Kane? Is he okay?

 

[MaccloNe]

We don't deserve respect because we are only 20 - 5.

KU managed to win a couple in the tournament after losing to TCU.

 

[CycloneErik]

In good shape. Now we grind out the win and call it a day.

Would you say he could play at the YMCA?

 

[Spam]

We look arrogant rather than sleepy today. Halftime scoreboard should take care of that, and we should win by 10+.

 

[Cyclonepride]

his left one is.

You must have the high def TV

Thought so until I saw the replay and he wasn't touched.

That is a whistle more often than not.
