Hanging tough. Gotta keep scoring because we can’t touch them on defense or it’s a blowie.

Something that bothers me even though it's a rebuilding year is that some of the mistakes are things you don't see in rec league.

A hand off at the top of the key shouldn't be picked off.

If there’s a guy as quick and experienced as Keenan Anderson in your rec league that’s a damn good league.

Steve's going to have to have some trust in Jakolby and Terrence if we want to have a chance here. Guys need a blow.

Why are simple passes so difficult to complete for this team?

That's college basketball in general usually...which drives me nuts as more of an NBA fan outside ISU.

We had the statistically most secure ball handling point guard in NCAA history for 4 years. So spoiled. Babb is better than average bad but now we don't even have him.

TTU looks like a different team compared to the 1st time around. We aren't playing bad, just not gonna have the strength or energy to keep up for 40 minutes and it's showing. The first 9 minutes reminds me of a first round NCAA Tourney game where a low seed keeps it close and plays with an unsustainable sense of urgency with the high seed in the early stages of the game, despite an obvious disparity.

Ha, valid point.

Still a rough looking turnover.

Team's still hanging in there though.

It sucks because I think we match up really well with TTU if Babb is playing. You can tell everyone is playing with a hand tied behind their back on defense trying not to pick up cheapies.

Must just be the angle but the lights reflection off of Tech's floor is always distracting/annoying.

For a phenomenal, and I mean phenomenal talent, Lindell needs to work on his FTs.
