*** #14 IOWA STATE vs #5 Texas A&M Game(day) Thread ***

Bogus travel calls missed free throws and flops by aTm were the difference good teams hope Niang is ok

Agree but also feel like Prohm got out coached. You don't try to play A&Ms game. They needed to play at a faster pace. Didn't play Burton enough and Cooke who hit a 3 in the first didn't play at all in the second when they were struggling to score
 
Hard to win when we get nothing out of nader and mckay. Might as well have sat mckay...he played terrible and was like a magnet for crappy plays.

And please stop saying nader is ever good defensively...he was atrocious on both ends.

Big scheme it means nothing, we have a conference race to get back into.

McKay played well in the second half. Did you watch the game?
 
Shoot 20% from free throw line, commit 16 plus turnovers on the road against #5 team and it is the refs? Really? Sometimes I think people look forward to being called whiners....

It can be all of those things and the refs can still not have a good game. As usual a mix of everything.
 
Not on our game today. Hopefully everyone gets healed up by tuesday. Felt like we had nothing to lose today, non-con loss at this point isn't the end of the world
 
Bad shooting and bad officials will give you this result.
Play like garbage against good teams this is what you get. I'm disappointed in how easily they took us out of our game mentally. This is a NCAA tourney type game. We folded way to easy.
 
Blame the officials all you want, this one is on Jameel in my book.

Make free throws or have competent officiating and this one is very different down the stretch. Get both and it's a win for sure. We were handling them until it went 8 vs 5 for a big stretch. Handling bogus refs is part of the game though, we had a stretch against KU where the calls were ridiculous and we played through it. Just don't tell me the refs weren't atrocious because that's absolutely insane.
