I like @Al_4_ISU, and I generally like his Cyclones. But this week, they can all take a ride down a slide of razorblades into a pool of lemon juice and salt.

I like the years where they come to Austin with a good team and get their teeth kicked in, like the tinsley and fredie Williams game or the game where Maurice Evans went ham.  Let’s do that again.

Yeah, I mean that's what happens more often than not.  Off the top of my head I can only remember 2 wins in Austin.  2005 and 2015.  Better ISU teams lost in Austin than either of those.

All 5 remaining home games are must wins. If we drop a home game we’ll need to pull off a big road upset 

Home:

ISU
WV
KSU
OSU
OU

Road:

UH
KU
Tech
Baylor

Scary, but not impossible to go 5-4 there. I hope we don't live to regret blowing the UCF game at home or the WV game in Morgantown. 

5-4 gets us to 9-9 (20-11) regardless of Big 12 tournament
4-5 gets us to 8-10, which probably gets us in (19-12) if we win 1 Big 12 tournament game

We've already kicked the shit out of two teams in games that we went into as road dogs. 

We also made UCONN sweat at a neutral site (which was a virtual road game).

There aren't any "must win" games - just need to find a way to get to 9-9 or so.

I think 8-10 gets us in regardless of the Big 12 tournament considering our Q1 wins so far, but if stuff gets crazy on the bubble then maybe we are sweating slightly. 

For reference, TCU went 8-10 in 2021-2022 with a non conference SOS very similar to ours this year. They got a 9 seed.

Massey has us with a 59% chance of winning tonight.  Projecting 70 to 67, good guys.

As an aside, Massey has us finishing the year with 4.8 wins, 4.2 losses (by adding the probabilities).  Or 5-4 if we win when we are favorites.

Was 2005 the year it went to OT and you guys scored like 40 in 5 minutes?

Yep, you are 2-19 on the road versus Texas

I guess maybe we could schedule you in 2025 to keep the every 10 year ISU win in Austin going?

W tonight would be YUGE

yep.  would be creeping very close to top 20 in kenpom with a win tonight.  

Win tonight and I feel very good about us dancing.

Yes. Our 6th man (Tasheed Carr) went ballistic from 3.

Make the Slav run around and guard weaver on defense … don’t want him getting too comfortable

Typical start. Again 

Tyrese how the fuck do you smoke that that badly.

How is this team always so unprepared

Well our starting "point guard" sucks fucking dick.

Deep down you and everyone here know the answer

Ace-miss so far 

We aren't good when we shoot like shit from 3.

Edited by ztejas

We got guys afraid to shoot the 2 foot shot and a lot of panicky passing

Honestly we look okay. Nothing has gone right so far. Just need to string a couple buckets and stops together. 

RT needs fresh legs.  Horton hasn’t played much recently maybe he will be fresh and provide scoring also get Onyema in.  

That's on uncalled offensive foul on 12's bitchass. Chick ref missed it.

Chick ref hates us more than she hates men.

Mitchell running the break and getting immediately trapped and turning it over

these teams look like its their first time playing basketball

Tyrese is a 50 pound anchor around this team's neck. He's 0/4 with 1 assist and 0s across the stat sheet. 

I want anyone blaming Terry for fucking anything to acknowledge how useless this guy is for massive stretches.*

*A junior guard that Beard recruited, btw
