*** Official Maryland vs #13 IOWA STATE Game(day) Thread ***

With Niang sitting as much as he did it's amazing the deficit is only 3. Thinking Hogue and Edozie talents switched bodies.

Always play better on our end of the floor with Fred's assistance nearby.

You mean Frank.

No WAY Maryland plays that well in the 2nd half.

If we keep playing defense like we did in the first half, I bet they do play as well in the 2nd half.

Being down only 3 feels like a relief with how out of sync we were that half. Huge contribution from Edozie to keep us close.

BDJ reminds me of Chris Allen when it comes to playing with my emotions.

 

[swarthmoreCY]

Maryland exposing our weaknesses. Kind of expected.

Although we are not executing at a high level, I like the effort. Edozie giving us good minutes is a positive going forward.

Some of you guys are so quick to call out a player if he is having an off game. If all 8-9 guys were on every game we'd beat Kentucky by 10. Everyone can't be on all the time.

THIS!

3 assists! Think we'll see some adjustments.

Agreed. Easily our worst half of play this season and only down 3 without Niang for a lot of that half too.

Edozie was was awesome filling in. He's a good matchup in this one. Great work on offense from BDJ.

 

[CoKane]

We look like a classic early season Hoiberg team. Every year but last year we started out like this. Hopefully we get get it all put together soon. I still think we will win this one but we look pretty bad right now.

 

[LutherBlue]

Maryland is solid. No one should have thought this game would be a stroll.

Spoiler

Maryland will be destroyed in the second half

 

[ISUCY23]

I hope Frank Hoiberg has these guys ready to play in the second half.

 

[bosco]

I have faith in Hoiberg that he can fix this mess-ingham at the half and we come out big in the second half and run Maryland off the court.

Can't run unless we rebound, can't rebound unless they miss. They won't miss unless we play better defense.

 

[ISpyCy]

If Maryland can have the superb half that they did and we're only down by three.....

.....keep calm and trust Hoiball.

 

[acgclone]

Hogue and Morris a little off so far. Hopefully Naz and Matt can open it up a little. Having Niang back in the 2nd should help our flow.

 

[swarthmoreCY]

I have faith in Hoiberg that he can fix this mess-ingham at the half and we come out big in the second half and run Maryland off the court.

We will not run Maryland off the court. That thought was stupid before the game and even more so now.

 

[ClonesFTW]

What the hell was Monte doing on that last possession? He should not be taking that shot, that's BDJ's to take hard at the hoop and go to the line. Maryland will not shoot that well in the 2nd half and Niang will not be on the bench. We're fine.

 

[CyGuy5]

This game kind of reminds me of the BYU game last year

 

[acgclone]

Maryland is solid. No one should have thought this game would be a stroll.

:smile:This board thinks we should win every game except @KU by double digits.....
