Our ball handling has been relatively abysmal this half as well unfortunately. So many turnovers.

Run the 5 OOB play dangit!

It stuns me how we can struggle to inbound the ball because of our spacing

Don't need this game any closer.
Jacques Strap

Need a bucket out of this timeout

1. Mayer needs to inbound- he can pass over and around easier

2. Can't sprint to catch at the baseline

Absolute mental collapse this last six minutes.

5 seconds. What a **** call by the ref.

Great job by Flagler. Not his best game but huge 2

Really needed that shot by Adam!

Brown just grab the ball

This will be a great win. Even though we didn't play well.

How long do you want to ignore this user?
Brown just totally got lost again on defense

Refs miss the hold on Sochan by the ISU defender

Iowa State 1-14 from 3 … 7%

ISU is a good team. Physical, well coached.

Look forward to watching them v KU. Maybe they can help us out.
Louise Romano

The announcers keep talking about ISU defense and the fact ISU did not shoot well, but they don't attribute any of that to our D. Big mistake. We are the reason they are 10% from 3.

My ISt buddy will have the check in the mail tonight.

Hilton is either mad loud or … crickets.
vanillabryce
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Fran did, he said it's in part to our defense and said we might be better than last season
jdrs
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Did they call a foul on us?
CHP Bear
How long do you want to ignore this user?
And no more Hilton Magic this year.
CHP Bear
How long do you want to ignore this user?
We've been ahead all game
OsoCirujano
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Completely agree. So much speed length and determination by our D. Even brown plays hard but gets out of position frequently. They had so few open looks beyond the arc
vanillabryce
How long do you want to ignore this user?
We can't keep catching the ball in that spot. Jeez!

Timbear

Baylor is not playing well.

Whew I can breathe with the made free throw
broncko
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Payback foul for the Tchatch foul
jdrs

Great win! Now to cheer on our other Bears to a victory!
Jacques Strap

Top 10 road wins are rare. I thought we played well. Bears were mentally tough, played thru foul trouble and a lot of pushing and hacking and answered every ISU run. Also overcame a lot of extra free throws shot by ISU.

FTs
ISU 21/27
Bears 10/14
