***OFFICIAL KSU at ISU THREAD***

TAKE CARE OF THE DAMN BALL!

 

[ISUKyro]

KSU 48
ISU 39

ISU having problems with ball control. Gotta get back at it clones.

 

[Tre4ISU]

I've never seen a team or teams in McD's case that are SO bad at the all important start of the 2nd half. We lose so many games coming back from the break right away. I've been very impartial and fair to McD, and am not one of the ppl calling for his head yet, but man he REALLY sucks at preparing his team for the beginning of 2nd halves.

What was he supposed to do today? I mean we were leading, there shouldn't be anything to fix. Our guys just came out and didn't have intensity.

 

[mtowncyclone]

what the f***

 

[Dryburn]

17-4 K-State run to start the 2nd half. Imagine that.

 

[cyclonefan1983]

there goes another game down at hilton versus a ranked opponent, its the same old CRAP we have dealt with ever since McDermott got here

 

[cycloneworld]

It is not a waste to take a TO during a run! It is a waste to hold onto them until the end of the game if we can't stay in it anyway!

We need all of those timeouts at the end of the game...you know, when we are down by 20 and need to make some adjustments.

 

[benjay]

this game is going exactly how I predicted. The only question is this: Why do I keep watching this train wreck?

 

[ISUKyro]

Two dumb turnovers in a row. There's the timeout you all wanted.

Yeah, but I wanted it when a bandaid would have fixed the wound :wink:

Think we may still be ok. They are only up by 9. This is still very much within reach. Just need to get back to smart plays and finishing.

 

[Clones85']

Gotta love McDermott. Anyone who actually thinks this guy is doing a good job needs to see our stats the first 5 minutes of the 2nd half. It's pathetic. They have outscore us by 13 in the first 5 minutes of the half. Getting outcoached so bad! Tired of it

 

[Tornado man]

I hate being right. Just can't keep up with only 7 players

That would be true at the end of a half - certainly not coming out of halftime. Our players are fresh.
The crowd around me is dead. Maybe because we're all wearing pink...

 

[tim_redd]

Does this game look familiar to anyone?

every game under gmac at isu?

 

[CloneIce]

Does this game look familiar to anyone?

Its freaking Groundhog Day! Every time. What in the heck happens at halftime game after game?

 

[sodakjoe]

It is not a waste to take a TO during a run! It is a waste to hold onto them until the end of the game if we can't stay in it anyway!

Uh, it's a waste of a TO when you're about to get a free one from the media. Coaches hold off on TOs near the 16,12,8, and 4 minute marks all the time.

 

[thatguy]

It is the same thing over and over. I don't know how anybody could think it was going to be any different. Craig is hurt, the guards are gassed and McDermott is being out coached.

 

[LeaningCy]

Turnovers in first half: 4
Turnovers in first 5 minutes of second half: 4

 

[FiveStarCulture]

how about those pink jerseys.

 

[Clones21]

Why must the same thing happen every game after half time?!?!?!?!?!?!

 

[atlantacyclone]

Damn. Come on! Is this a joke?

 

[cyclones122]

It is the same thing over and over. I don't know how anybody could think it was going to be any different. Craig is hurt, the guards are gassed and McDermott is being out coached.

Yep, it was only a matter of time before it happened.
