*** Official IOWA STATE vs #14 Texas Tech Game(Day) Thread ***

[Rabbuk]

It’s really bizarre, obviously they are both mediocre and can look bad but Enaruna has shown ability to give you 20 against a good team and Jackson hit an occasional shot. If they struggle pull them, but look at the offense right now.

it makes no sense, the guys who are playing over them are playing like ****. Might as well try something different

I feel like Tre has a good a chance as making some 3s...... and a better chance than Gabe

Same team rallied against Baylor from 25 down

 

[cyatheart]

Effort was poor again...seeing poor effort way too much still

 

[enisthemenace]

Going to bed. Back atcha Y'all next week.

Taco's coach is actually an accountant, right?

 

[HoustonClone]

Gabe might be the worst offensive player I have seen since Nixon. Maybe worse.

Some games, yes. But we seem to forget he has won games for us this year when he is on. We're not in the NCAA Tournament without him.

Adams IS a good coach though. COY in the Big 12, which absolutely gets approval with me. Otz is getting schooled by him. It’s obvious.

I’ve been listening to a lot of national college basketball podcasts the last few days, and when ISU is talked about it’s all about the 36 points they scored against OSU and if they are even a good team. That game alone dropped ISU at least 1 seed if not 2-3. Now this effort again and I wouldn’t be surprised is ISU is a 12.

An 11 or 12 is probably a good spot for this team.

 

[ISpyCy]

Already turned it off......for now though.

This Tech team is better than that Baylor team.

 

[CyBobby]

Another embarrassing effort from this team.

YEAH EIGHT TURNOVERS IN SIXTEEN MINUTES will doom you to a Blow Out Defeat Every Time!

 

[cyclo120]

To be honest, Tech isn’t great. They’re obviously better than Iowa State. But I think Tech is vulnerable in the dance.

I like them in the dance, they can’t get in a shootout offensively but don’t even know if that’s possible with the defense.

 

[quasistellar]

Their guys are just better. You can be mad if you want but it is what it is this season.

Enjoy the ride and root for miracles.

 

[Omaha Cy]

So.... anyone got an ETA for when ISU will start playing the good basketball?

 

[dafarmer]

Can’t watch this #### anymore. Good bye.

 

[cycloneworld]

I want an explanation from TJ on why Enaruna and Jackson aren’t playing, especially when we stink it up like this. We could use Enaruna’s size tonight.

I’ve said it for half a season now - TJ is so stubborn on his approach. I have no idea how you can score 36, 40, 41, etc points in entire games and trot out the exact same game plan and lineup/rotation for the next one. It’s frustrating.

 

[ISUKyro]

Anyone looked up the lowest score in a big12 tournament game?

 

[Rogue52]

We will make the tournament because of an explosive non-conference season, but we do not look like a tournament team.

 

[BigJCy]

You think lack of effort is why we’re losing?

Yeah I think the effort has been fine. It's lack of offensive talent that is the problem.

 

[madguy30]

You think lack of effort is why we’re losing?

ISU is pretty bad tonight but it's weird that people can't see exactly why ISU looks only worse.
