I don’t believe there are any coral reefs in Iowa so I expect Watson to get back to form sooner than later.

Well you can still cut your foot wading in Lake LaVerne, but it won't be from coral. More likely broken beer bottles.

Scored 100 points but it was maybe their sloppiest game this year, imo.

Maybe not "bored," but probably a little unfocused.

I guess it's natural if you build a major margin and opponent isn't a serious threat, you know you can play loose (sometimes that's helpful, sometimes it leads to sloppiness).

Yeah it's human nature to let off a bit when things are going well.

That includes big leads on good teams going away which happens fairly often.

That sldo includes just losing a rhythm for a bit while the opponent finds it.

The good thing was, whenever they looked like they were losing focus and Jackson St started to make a run, ISU went into lock down mode and shut it down, quick and then extended the lead.

I know it was a poor opponent, but I'm really liking the look of Jones and MM's 3 point shot, feels like first year we can have some deadly 3 point games since Hoiball era. Just think it's going to be such a weapon to combine that floor stretching with one of the best penetrating guards in the country and big guys who can actually score and finish.

It's not a surprise we're top ten offense in Kenpom when you look at it like that, it's just hard to get used to after the offensive struggles we've had in recent years.

After about the first 5-10 minutes they looked bored.
I was at the game and the crowd was bored pretty quickly too, what crowd was there. Terrible time slot against a terrible opponent.
