    Yeah, and he fell on his previous jump as well. I imagine he gave up ski jumping for something safer after this competition - like knitting.

    Tough day for EIU hoops hopes

    The BTN has contributed to this living in a fantasy world in a huge way. BTN announcers are huge big 10 homers and they only talk about big 10 teams. It is kind of like only listening to your hand picked follows on social media. You are only going to hear what you want to hear.

    Probably just someone trying to recreate the "the agony of defeat" clip from the old ABC's Wide World of Sports opening.

    They need an early exit from the conf tourney so they can sit and get healthy.

    Step back and and consider just how crazy it is that 4 Q1s out of 7 games is part of the easiest closing stretch in the conference...

    Best Iowa State point guard

    I used to love how Tinsley would let his guy by him just so he could block his shot from behind. I imagine it resulted in some rushed driving shots later.

    Iowa State is the new Press Virginia

    "You don't develop players these days." I think Robert Jones would beg to differ.

    Iowa State is the new Press Virginia

    And Huggins went 10 or 11 deep to combat it. He had 50 or 55 fouls at his disposal a game so he was okay if the officials were letting things go - because there was a hell of a lot more to let go on the WVU side - and he was okay if they were calling it tighter - because he damned well made...

    Iowa State is the new Press Virginia

    And that frustration is about as close to a free throw defense as you will ever get. If you are able to employ it consistently and frustrate shooters it will show up in the weak minded at that FT line as well. The strong will still hit their shots but a couple of extra misses at the line from...

    Stevie was probably the best linebacker to ever play forward for ISU. ;)

    Stacy Frese probably nips Hornacek for best shooter. ;)

    I have always defended Scotty when he was getting slammed for what he did. His wasn't a throat slash but the stop it or cut it out gesture. Tinsley definitely did the throat slash here. But I'm sure that is the norm at Rucker Park.

    STORY: Free throws, clutch play lift Iowa State to second win over AP top 10 team

    I woke up this morning thinking about how incredibly difficult what Emily Ryan did is. She had probably the worst shooting night from the floor of her career but she didn't let it affect the rest of her game dishing out a dozen dimes. But even more incredibly she didn't let her frustration...

    STORY: Free throws, clutch play lift Iowa State to second win over AP top 10 team

    We don't do that 'Lady <mascot name>' thing like the southern teams do. Our women are Cyclones just like the men. Let's not diminutize them. Or maybe you meant to say 'lady Cyclones'? Not trying to be a jerk, just informational.

    Time for a Real Discussion About Caitlin Clark

    Yeah, they said they got rid of the Big Peach because they couldn't do color photos on the peach colored paper. It had cache back then though. They could have just continued with peach for the first and last page and done the rest of the sports section with white paper and color photos, but I...

    That is UNI's territory so they lost it when they first got beat. And eventually we beat a team that beat a team that beat a team....that beat that team.

    Saturday's game with Tech is a consolidation game. The winning team is going to increase their holdings whether it is ISU or Tech.

    To be fair Cincy is a long way from Des Moines for a week night game. ;)
