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

[nyclone]

Our defense looks, um weak to say the least. Ouch!

 

[burn587]

Why do we always double down on the big man, even if they haven't proven they can hit a shot yet? It leaves way too many open perimeter looks if the big guy passes out of it.

 

[CyArob]

This defense blows. Gave up 13 points in 4 minutes to TCU.

 

[pulse]

What's up with chunky wearing a Hawkeye sweatshirt behind the bench?

What the hell. Free nachos?

 

[kilroy]

So frustrating, just keep waiting for them to start storming, but looks like I'll have to settle for a grind.

 

[kentkel]

It's frustrating when our defense is letting some of these TCU guards (not named Kyan Anderson) look like all Big XII players!

 

[AttakOfDaClones]

No energy. We don't deserve to win at this point. If we play with a sense of urgency and some intensity, I don't see how TCU stays in the game. However, we look like a cliche letdown at this point.

 

[BloodyBuddy]

Iowa State Basketball...making scrubs look like All-Americans since 1908

 

[cyrocksmypants]

Defense is embarrassing. Just letting every one of their guys drive to the bucket at will.

 

[cyclones12321]

Some defense would be nice for a change

 

[Skyh13]

That missed lob... ugh. TCU needs to go on a huge drought, or else I'm not feeling confident at all that ISU ends up on top, with this horrific defense.

 

[inCyteful]

We are getting out-thugged. Don't like that one bit.

 

[Thomasrickj]

How are we still losing?! We are giving them the lane every time.

 

[tim_redd]

TCU carving us up for layups all day.

 

[Final42b]

Oh my god **** our defense

 

[Dryburn]

I can't watch this any more. Way too frustrating. This team has a shot at a great seeding, and they act like they don't give a ****.

 

[atlantacyclone]

Take the lead and don't give it up! Come on guys! Let's get some separation!

 

[AttakOfDaClones]

Is Kane sick or something? He has been dragging since the opening tip, not just since he has been beat up.

 

[Skyh13]

the whistles have come alive! Good heavens..

 

[CYme]

Everyone but Ejim and Kane can afford to get a foul.
