*** Official IOWA STATE vs #3 Baylor Game(Day) Thread ***

[simply1]

I thought they started too late but they timed that perfectly. Good to see Gabe knock it down, too.

If he could just hit that corner 3 reliably

Hey, we’ve got a shot. I feel better about this one than I did Wednesday night, even though today we were down by 25 in the first half. What does that say about this team?

 

[legi]

I believe we were down 29-4 at about 8 mins left in half, and then went on a 25-10 run to end the half. Weird.

So 4 points in 12 minutes and then 25 points in 8 minutes. Again weird.

 

[simply1]

Brockington only 2 points, hope he gets it going but he’s got the focus of the Baylor D.

It was 29-4 and we had 4 points with just under 8 to play and ended with almost 30. Amazing we are even in this game at all, but that’s why the offense is so mind boggling and frustrating. Nearly every game we have a ridiculously long spell with no points or maybe a bucket at best. This team can be so good if they would/could ever figure out how to not go 10+ minutes of just insanely putrid offense.

It’s not even bad offense, which I would say should still get you 8-10 points. But I mean worse offense then you see in high school ball when it comes to scoring. It’s just perplexing. But hey they are still in this thing somehow.

We HAVE to get on the defensive boards.... and if the refs would start calling fouls more evenly!
TJ made some great coaching adjustments!

 

[CoKane]

Completely insane, improbably, and nearly impossible that we got it to 10. We aint winning this one but we didnt give up and we made adjustments to get back in this one.

 

[cyclonehomer]

Kudos to whoever realized they were leaving the bigs basically unguarded at the rim. That really turned the game around.

 

[CydeofFries]

That's the first time and end of half play actually looked coherent all year. Good on Gabe hitting that, let's make a run to open 2nd half and make this interesting

 

[Blandboy]

just score, baby

 

[MLawrence]

We are gonna lose this game. But get us out of this defense-crazy league and I STILL think we an win one in the tourney and then the rest is gravy.

 

[JBone84]

Maybe Gabe will catch fire in the second half now that he's seen one go in.

 

[WooBadger18]

I will definitely take being down by 10 at half. Great way to end the half, guys!

 

[spitfyr36]

just score, baby

Thanks Al

 

[cyups2323]

At what point does tj walk out on the court and get a T. EVERY team in this league plays aggressive defense but somehow we are always at a huge foul discrepancy.

 

[cyclones500]

Let's see how we react coming out of half.

 

[JBone84]

Maybe Gabe will catch fire in the second half now that he's seen one go in.

Hey, @GTO, it's rare but it's happened. A guy can dream.

 

[CentexCyclone]

GK has some nice baseline takes.

 

[MLawrence]

Single digits. Nice.

Wonder if Brockington can get going. He has been playing crappy last 2 games (in comparison to what he can do)
