Yeah, I don’t care if we won on an off balance shot flipped up over the backboard after a travel that the refs missed. Every Big 12 road win is huge
1-4 wouldn’t have necessarily meant were a bad team. Just going by metrics a 25th best team goes 1-4 in that stretch only being favored vs okst. Which is why I don’t think it’s crazy metrics show us between 5th and 15th.
Add in our missed free throws in the last 35 sec, that could/should have been around an 8 point win.
Clones get a top 25 road W.
Hawks lose at home.
Now all I need is the Purdy 9ers to win a playoff game, and it will be the perfect sports day.

Future nba all stars per DesMoines media Freeman and Harding post almost no stats.
It wasn’t so much trying to blow a lead, but not scoring a bucket for over four minutes at the end was the biggest problem I saw. Score on half of those possessions and it’s a double digit win.
As I said, TCU really picked up the defensive intensity late. There's a reason why we didn't score in those 4 minutes.

No complaints here. Ranked opponent, road win. That's good enough.
Guys had to step up. They did. Really nothing outside of refs to complain about, and that part is pretty much like breathing for us anyway.

Great win on the road, throw in we were without our point guard and best player a great team effort. Throw in 27 TCU turnovers, we making seven 3-pointers and we hold on the for win by the skin of our teeth. Was nice to see Omaho get a few minutes and contribute with 4 points, would have liked to see him a little in the 2nd half, but whatever.
Yeah those free throws hurt. Also hurt that we didn’t get fouled enough to be in the double bonus by then. Whether that was the refs or our lack of aggressiveness trying to run down the clock.
TCU shot 50% from the field, but with all the turnovers they only took 46 shots compared to ISU's 62. When they stopped turning it over, they climbed back into it. We also had three extended periods in the second half without a bucket.
There's a win column and a loss column but there's no close column. That said, I will take a W.
I would bet he plays Wednesday. I think sitting him today was sort of a long term play.
The week off coming after KU is nice.
