GAMETHREAD: IOWA STATE AT OKLAHOMA

Iowa St. Cyclones at Oklahoma Sooners, Feb 4, 2012 5:00 PM CST




So, the rumors are true. We're chasing down an NCAA bid. And, as Fred Hoiberg told the guys the day of the Texas A&M win, boys win at home and men win on the road. Oklahoma is certainly no pushover and will be a tough opponent on the road. A loss doesn't doom Iowa State, but a win looks damn good to the committee. Road wins (and defending the home court) are where it's at. Let's take a little Hilton Magic to Oklahoma this week.

Quick Poll

Which road game will be tougher? Today’s game in Norman or Tuesday’s game in Stillwater?

I’m honestly not sure. OSU gave Baylor a pretty good game today, but OU has been really pesky at home.

I would think oSu

Due to the law of Keiton Page being a pain in the ass.

Oh mini-me...

There are literally DOZENS of us!

As it should be...

I really need to see Denver win by 15 points at home, just to get in the proper mindset.

There are literally DOZENS of us!

by Tracer Bullet 82 on Feb 4, 2012 5:01 PM CST up reply actions  

I doubt it.

We’ll more than likely be stuck with LaRon Dendy and friends.

by CYphilis- on Feb 4, 2012 5:00 PM CST via Android app reply actions  

Where do you rank...

…Dendy’s ill-advised shot against UNI in 2009 in the long list of all time ISU fuck ups?

by cylentbutdeadly on Feb 4, 2012 5:02 PM CST up reply actions  

Defensive Matchups

I think we’ll go Royce on Fitzgerald, Ejim on Osby, Babb on Pledger, but who do we put on Cameron Clark? Allen? Scottie? I really don’t like that match up for us today. Grooms is crafty too.

wow a court rush

just because I rock, doesn't mean I'm made of stone.

Storming the court

For Middle Ten. State. Is that rock bottom?

Dammit Royce...

You had Scotty for a heat-check, and the better option was passing directly into the opponent’s gut for a fast break?

There are literally DOZENS of us!

by Tracer Bullet 82 on Feb 4, 2012 5:17 PM CST reply actions  

Pledger moves well without the ball but he’s pushing off on everything. Will be a tough assignment for Babb.

by cylentbutdeadly on Feb 4, 2012 5:19 PM CST reply actions  

17-15 at the first TV timeout.

Royce looks out of it right now.

OU hitting open shots and scoring in transition. Need to buckle down on D.

by CrossCyed on Feb 4, 2012 5:19 PM CST reply actions  

At some point, we’re going to have to work the ball inside and drive the lane.

Boom. 3 in transition.

Normally I wouldn’t approve, but the way they’re shooting now, hell, throw it up.

Royce and his damn traitor shoes...

Now that’s news.

There’s a rumor he might wear a white OU visor in the second half too.

Huh... Usually when you save yourself from one stupid error...

You don’t go right out and do it again…

Why is it so easy for other teams to be open when they come off screens, but when we’re on offense, all we do is just run into other guys on the court?

by cylentbutdeadly on Feb 4, 2012 5:50 PM CST reply actions  

Babb - ruthless

girl I went to HS with has a FB status of:
Holy crap I have a ridicously scratchy cooter. What are these red bumps? Suggestions?

sad thing is I dont know whether its a FB hack or if it’s legit. there’s a very good chance that it is, in fact, very bump and scratchy

by CyssorMeTimbers on Feb 4, 2012 6:03 PM CST reply actions  

Tough call. Mizzou and all their SEC bullshit is intolerable, but if KU doesn’t lose, how are we going to get back in the championship conversation? Half-kidding, but I guess KU for me.

Put-back, nice!

See how good off. rebounds can be?

Or does Allen look stoned all the time? Kinda like the Cyclone Jukebox Song of the Week guy?

Partly on him

He’s had chances to get shots and passed. Really an odd game

ESPN jumping on the bandwagon?

I’m buying in on Iowa State. Cyclones win a road game at Oklahoma with Royce White taking and making one shot. Iowa State top four Big 12.
