***Offical ISU vs Drake Game Thread***

Scotty > Drake

well if eligibility doesn't matter, why limit yourself to just Brackins and Wesley? Why not throw in Kelvin Cato or Jared Homan while you're at it? Or shoot, maybe the Mayor himself. He could coach and play.

For the record, Wesley could have redshirted in hopes of Mac getting fired while forseeing Fred Hoiberg coming in. He would then still be eligible. So you could be wrong in this whole argument.

crowd was great in the mid to late 80s too.

I believe it and have seen some of those classic games! I just wasn't there to witness it unfortunately. Before my time.

2 field goals this half for Drake. D on lockdown.

Great game Scotty C!

Anyone else believing in the Mayor?

not to rain on any parades, but we won our first 5 games by at least 20 last year, with one by 40+ and another by 30+ then a 10 point win over st louis. and then the **** storm came and we stunk it up again. long way to go and i would think the staff would agree

St. Louis and Drake were decent opponents, but the other 3 wins were against really weak opponents. What we're doing to Drake tonight and did to NAU is more impressive than anything we did last year early in the season.

and Lew Alcindor could have come out of retirement, petitioned the NCAA for additional eligibility, and suited up for the Clones as well.

Looks like Drake brought their D+ game...get it?

I see what you did there.

 

[tman24]

I can safely say that we will not finish last in the big 12.

 

[jdoggivjc]

I see only three possibilities here:

1. D+ is that bad
2. The Big 12 is that good
3. The other 11 coaches in the Big 12 had no idea what the **** they were talking about when they picked ISU to finish dead last this year

Scotty - 27
Drake - 27

Any other old-timers out there that remember when Hercle Ivy outscored Colorado in the early/mid '70s. Could we have a repeat?

 

[acrozier22]

Wow....we are just crushing them. I didn't see this coming at all.

Fred keeps saying it this team has good chemistry.

don't get ahead of yourself man. We've had 3 games against three pretty terrible opponents

 

[marothisu]

I'm liking how we're penetrating tonight. Obviously Drake is not a Kansas State or a Kansas, but it's still a good sign early in this season. This wasn't supposed to happen, even against a team like Drake or Alabama State.

and Lew Alcindor could have come out of retirement, petitioned the NCAA for additional eligibility, and suited up for the Clones as well.

They wouldn't have ever allowed that happen. That's just not realistic.

creighton up 6 with 4:55 left

Not getting too far ahead but I just have a feeling we are better than Nebraska.
