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

[Spam]

They need to realize Danny Manning never won in Hilton during his 4 yrs as a Jayhawk.

Yeah the Houston delusion is something else.

 

[CRCySpy]

Houston fans on their message board are not used to losing. They are having a hard time coming to terms that they might drop 4+ games in conference.

Welcome to the best conference in college basketball. No more trips to Tulsa, ECU, or USF.
Lots of melt downs coming if they think 5 or 6 losses in this conference is terrible.

Totally agree with King. The guy was tough as nails tonight and you have to be against Houston. That's a really good team we beat tonight.

But King with almost a double/double and making that huge 3, and just all around physical play really stood out.

Absolutely the UNSUNG hero tonight I think. I’m a big fan of Tre.

Well boys and girls nights like tonight is why WE ARE CYCLONES! what a great game! The snow hindered attendance but those there were FEISTY!
Shout out to Bob "free throw" Jones he nailed some big ones. Heck the whole team did. Milan "money " Momcilovic draining that shot and free throws in the end.
.....
Oh yeah shout out to @Sigmapolis and the alumni band for some great musical entertainment.

I am glad you decided to drive down!! You were not disappointed! The crowd was amazing, really.

Oh, and any pics/video on the alumni band. That must have been something for most of them to show up also!!

 

[JimDogRock]

Oh my!!! That is so clutch.

We can't expect him to make that kind of shot every game. Can we?

Honestly, from his first shot of the year on, I've been expecting big shots from Milan.

Was anyone surprised that he got the call with the game in the balance? And that he nailed it?
Not if they've been paying attention.

We got #1 north carolina towards the beginning of last season. But that was fools gold given it was so early in the season and they ended up being garbage.

Here's our wins vs 2 or better

That Oklahoma loss was a sting and we had our opportunities in that one. Credit the Sooners. But I still think in the end, we’ll place better.

This win erases that loss completely! Still a lot of play left. We’ll have our bad losses and great wins ahead. But love our effort thus far.

 

[t-noah]

There was short stretch in first half where I thought they should have called one or two on them, but overall they let both Teams play and don't remember much to complain about in 2nd half

Thanks for the reply.

I will probably want to channel some new hate though now. So. I'll be thinking of good ole Kelvin Sampson as the new Bob Huggins of the conference. Let the hate flow.

That's always one of my favorite facts.

Ku won it safely with 5 losses last year.

I could put that Milan Momcilovic turn around fade away dime on eternal viewing loop.

And never ever get tired of watching it.

Add that Ward dunk on the inbounds to it and damn that is a great highlight tape.

 

[clone37]

One thing that got overlooked tonight was Iowa State's lack of fouls. They played great defense tonight and only committed 12 fouls. They shot 10 more free throws than Houston and took advantage by making most of them. Ballgame. Great win!

The 1st 20 miles on the drive down were like WTF luckily it slowly improved and 35S was a good drive, got into Hilton just after the 1st 9 points. It was well worth the drive. Catch you all in Hilton Saturday for a great double header ladies take on Baylor and the men get the always pesky Okie St. Cowboys.

Oh yeah shout out to @Sigmapolis and the alumni band for some great musical entertainment.

Wasn't there.

Flight kept getting delayed at DFW all day.

Landed at about 7:30 PM and got home at about 8:10 PM.

Just finished watching the VOD.

Great ******* win and game!



Sad I couldn't make it, though.

 

[t-noah]

Forgot to post this this morning.

I love your persistent musical weirdness, ah I mean, your progressive musical taste!

 

[simply1]

Gonna need more than 1 Quad 1 win

What a ******* idiot.

Someone wanted John Walters' call?

Link? (serious)

Tre was awesome, we'll need similar from him every night. He, Jones and Ward held their own against a big, athletic, physical, talented frontcourt.

Tre had a really good bouce back game. Very clutch! Hope we see more of that controlled, mature, great playing Tre!
