*** Official #12 IOWA STATE vs #18 Baylor Game(Day) Thread ***

[Die4Cy]

These fans are idiots.

Agree. Not a smart or savvy fan base.

 

[jdoggivjc]

Having to check the shot off when he got it off with half a second on the clock? **** these refs.

 

[HFCS]

These fans are idiots.

Unprofessional fans.

 

[tim_redd]

Needed that, but a lot of work to do in the second half.

 

[Malone]

About 70% into the season, still have no idea what to expect from this team. Suppose that could be explained away by “Big 12 gonna Big 12”

 

[cayin]

How did Gilbert end up on a big on Baylor's last O possession?

 

[Cloned4Life]

Strategy for 2nd half: shoot everything from half court.

Maybe try playing defense and fighting for rebounds and loose balls.

 

[bosco]

I could do without these announcers slobbering over Baylor's knob.

 

[rosshm16]

At least Keshon came to play today because no one else did.

How does Lipsey go an entire half without taking a shot?

 

[cyclo120]

And tonight they're playing good defense.

It's possible.

Not really though, a lot of missed good shots and unforced turnovers

 

[ISpyCy]

Unprofessional fans.

Worse than unprofessional. They're Baylor-level.

 

[fsanford]

For a team that everyone hypes up for their defense we sure are terrible at defending

Tonight its about rebounding, they are getting crushed and not able to set up the D very well when Baylor gets the rebound

 

[cincinnaticyclone]

These fans are idiots.

Every single one of them is still upset Ken Starr and Art Briles aren’t collecting Baylor paychecks

 

[NWICY]

Well I was hoping for single digits at half, but shoot a little better and defensive rebound, we xan be right back in it.

 

[Billups06]

How did Gilbert end up on a big on Baylor's last O possession?

Screen on Ward at the top of the key. Gilbert switched on the screen.

 

[cloneclone]

This game seems eerily similar to our game against Kansas, just reversed.

 

[fcclone]

Having to check the shot off when he got it off with half a second on the clock? **** these refs.

Yeah he shot it from half court and I think It hit the backboard with time left even.

 

[Erik4Cy]

that 3 could prove to be huge

or completely meaningless if we put forth that same effort of rebounding and defending.

 

[cincinnaticyclone]

Tonight its about rebounding, they are getting crushed and not able to set up the D very well when Baylor gets the rebound

Rebounding is part (probably the most important part) of defense and ISU has been terrible at it all year

Expect that winning on the road anywhere in this conference is hard
