***OFFICIAL: ISU vs. UNI game(day) thread***

[CycloneErik]

I think this game is a blowout. UNI hasn't been slowing it down like the past and they aren't a good rebounding team. This seems like a game Kane dominates with 20-10-5. They don't have the heft in the back court to stop him. And Kane, Hogue and Ejim should dominate the boards. I think it's an easy enough win that Ellerman plays.

UNI has the guards. The game plans should be to attack the posts then attack them some more. Once Tuttle gets in foul trouble, UNI literally has no post players

I'm combining both ideas. UNI doesn't have the posts or the guards.
Dead cats walking.

Now, if they want to get out and run with us, that's just fine. That's really, really fine.

They wont run.

And there guards are fine, IMO. But it should be a blowout

Yes, I am hoping Tuttle gets into foul trouble before Georges.

They play 4 guards: Mitchell, Bohannon, Washpun and Morgan.

Who has the strength & size to guard Kane on a post up? Or to box him out?

They all have the strength & size to flop, and I expect just that on both drives and post-ups.

Don't forget about tripping, that is a new one that ISU has to worry about now.

Not sure Morgan has the height but is only a freshman and probably doesnt have the strength. Washpun is by far the most athletic player on the roster but is only 6'1". Bohannon will probably be on Thomas. While Mitchell is there main PG but isnt near as big as kane/.

Like I said should be a blowout. But post play is there biggest weakness in a landslide

This will be like Christmas come early for squawk fans. 1st their Alma Mater plays the Clones at 5:30 then at 8:00 their beloved Hoks take on Drake, all for the price of 1.

Kirkwood is playing?

Is there any shot this mediacom broadcast is in HD?

MC022 is in HD now. I noticed that occured a couple months ago. One less thing for Murph and Andy to joke about now.

At first I was going to go to Iowa, then I thought about UNI. Glad I made the right decision in the end.

 

[UNIPantherFan]

I hate UNI. I hate everything about them and their fans. Who in the hell would go to UNI? What would your thinking be to decide on UNI as your school of choice? I just don't get it. Horrible town, horrible almost everything.

Really? Not every UNI fan is an Iowa fan too.
Why go to UNI? - how about the fact that they have one of the top business and teaching programs in the midwest. Also, I think about 90% of UNI's students are from the state of Iowa. Cedar Falls is a nice town, not as big as Ames or Iowa City, but a nice town. As far as athletics, UNI does a great job for the size of their athletic budget.

Good luck to Iowa State on the rest of the season, beat the Hawkeyes next week. Go Panthers!!!!!

Is it 5 PM yet???

Let's get this thing started already!

 

[Beyerball]

The only way UNI wins this game is if we are in serious foul trouble all game, have our worst shooting night of the season and UNI plays their best game of the season. All of which is possible but not likely.

I was in Cedar Falls not long ago and was surprised at the large quantity of folks out with ISU gear on. Was sure nice to see, and I agree a lot of posters here are quick to push the stereotype about the panther-hawks. My mom is a UNI grad but huge ISU fan. She'll be cheering for the Clones today.

Do you know if you have to have a cable box to get it in HD or can you get in in HD with the other local channels on a digital TV?

Cable box. My OTA locals are in HD, except for MC22.

If we can keep our mouths away from their elbows I think we can stay out foul trouble.

Dumb. Thanks mediacom..
