*** Official IOWA STATE vs #23 Texas Tech Game(Day) Thread ***

[cyclonedave25]

2nd game in row where we literally hand the opposing team free points to end the half. Glad we are learning our lessons...

 

[Darius Bieber]

0-13 from three. Holy hell. This may be the worst three point shooting team in all of Div 1.

 

[FerShizzle]

I just looked at NCAA D-I stats. We are, miraculously, not the worst 3-point shooting team in the country. Difficult to believe after that half.

But how many teams below ISU shoot as many 3s? We have to lead the nation in missed 3PA.

 

[ISUKyro]

I hate when they score a TD with less than a min to play...... wait
Damnit it happens in this sport too?!

 

[CYDJ]

OUTSTANDING defensive game plan today. We’ve caused a ton of turnovers.
We’ve gotten open looks, we start hitting some and win going away.

That's a big if. But, we have done pretty well on D. Just have one lapse or let them get a loose ball and they hit a 3 with shooter that can hit 3s.

 

[cyclonestate]

Not saying we're gonna win, but I guarantee you're gonna see a great second half effort. It's just a question of whether we can make shots.

 

[JRE1975]

What an ugly half, on both sides!

 

[awd4cy]

Tech sleepwalking. Probably turn it up in the second half.

 

[Erik4Cy]

So stupid to end the half...again. give them FTs with an offensive foul 90 feet from the hoop.

ICYMI last game we fouled a 3 pt shooter to end the half in Waco

Whoa....don't go complementing this team. Not allowed here.

[Macloney]

Instead of running the offense and looking for a high percentage shot, Tyrese dribbles and heaves a 3? Then you foul?

So, instead of maybe of down 2 at the half it's 6. That and the miserable shooting from great looks behind the arc are maddening.

 

[67CY]

I wish Tyrese would have thrown that last inbound pass to Prohm

 

[Darius Bieber]

Tech sleepwalking. Probably turn it up in the second half.

Yep. Feels like Baylor 2.0.

 

[CycloneVet]

Well yea. For good reason.

I was being sarcastic.

 

[blutarsky]

Laughable way to end the half, again.

Good call by Prohm to slow it and play for the last shot... then do nothing and hoist a 30 footer.

 

[CycloneErik]

I know people are critical of Prohms offense but they do get a lot of open looks from 3.

I would give us open looks from 3 all day long.

 

[Clonehomer]

0-13 from 3 and down 6. Feels like this game is still winnable even with as bad as they played. They need to come out in control in the second half and get some interior looks.

 

[awd4cy]

Are we the worst in P6? That could be a tight running.

I have never in my life seen a team miss so many open shots. Unguarded, no special pace, basically warmup shots. Can't make 'em.

It’s probably close between us and Oklahoma State

 

[CYDJ]

Our guy got touched on the last second play of the half. Why not foul?
