As much as rebounding better would help, it would be nice if some of the guys had a better night shooting, so there were just less rebounds to get. Tyrus has not shot the ball well at all the last couple games.
I pointed out the bounces in the game thread. There were at least three rebounds by TCU where we had three guys there and ready and the ball went straight to their guy.
I noticed that too, but there were more times we didn't do the right the thing and still got the rebound than vice versa. Had guys been in better position and gotten bodies on their man, the "bounces" wouldn't stand out.
Offensive rebounding against WVU didn't concern me too much. WVU got their O rebounds by playing Huggy ball and going through the Iowa State player or pushing them in the back and under the basket. They could have been called for at least twice as many fouls if not more on the offensive boards. The offensive rebounds at TCU were much more concerning to me.
Fred said in his press conference on Monday that we shot over 50% from the field at TCU...
I agree, from behind the arc it's been a little chilly lately. But overall the guys are still hitting shots - just not draining threes at a rapid clip.
Good point, TCU does some credit though. They were well coached and did a good job getting our guys out of their comfort zone on offense. We still hit shots, it just looked different than in the past.
