*** Official #2 Houston vs IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

[CycloneRulzzz]

Lots of good predictions


Got final margin right

Clones win 65-61

Both these call a close win. Good call on free throws

71-68 cyclones. I think that they show some grit tonight. Must make our free throws.

Fran Fran! Yay!

Go Cyclones!!!

I'll be the first to call it, Iowa State 77 - 75 Houston

But one kind of stood out from the rest for the Rulzzz predication contest. Congrats to @NENick

If weather prevents much travel to Ames, just open the gates and let local walk-ups in. Fill Hilton up!

Low-scoring defensive battle.
58-56 Cyclones

Well yeah. But you have to teach your players how to pick and choose your battles. Too often we have players that don't seem to grasp when it's a good time to double or collapse. Often it's a guy like Jones or King who makes a bad decision and it results in wide open shooters.

I'm all for trapping when it's the tight players involved or spot on the floor (Ward is a great trapper and has the ability to recover). But the amount of trapping this team does reminds me of Morgan ball when we pressed regardless of the situation. The result is it ends up hurting us as much as it helps.

Had to be Juicy!

No it was a techno type song.

Best part about that win is we are still so far away from playing our best ball.

Never been happier to lose money. Awesome!!!!

So we were told Saturday that probably only the women’s team would likely make the NCAA’s. Does that change with this win?

 

[jctisu]

What I think was most impressive is TJ looked like he planned the team to play more like the last two seasons because he knew it would be an absolute rock fight. My guess is next game will look much different.

The emphasis on the defensive side of the floor tonight I think contributed to missing shots as well because we laid it all out on that end.

Haha!

Mission Control, this is Houston, ah, we have a problem!

Never a doubt. Love these well-spoken post-game interviews. .

Switched over to Baylor and oh my god this camera is as bad as people have said. This is unwatchable

It looks like Ohio State except 30 feet higher.

In case anyone needed another angle of the shot!

Never a doubt. Love these well-spoken post-game interviews. .

And nice to beat that cheating coach. He is a good floor coach, though.

Is a Tuesday...but a bit of scotch tastes amazing!

Okay, think I'll join you and pour myself one to.

Is there a dog in there or what is that squeaking I keep hearing?

Yes, there is a black dog about three rows behind the scorers bench. Saw it during halftime clip.
