The Hawks can take credit for the “screwing” ISU suffered…..UIowa was part of that notorious non-conference schedule folks are citing for Cy’s screwing……….BTW, it ain’t all bad for ISU……playing in Omaha the first couple of games…..a Sweet 16 looks promising, at least…….They aren’t playing Hampton, are they?
Well for Iowa it’s always a conspiracy by the refs for many posters.
This is known here as “ Witvoet Conspiracy Syndrome”…….it’s in all the journals, I am sure.
I didn't watch much of it but someone told me Houston got several T's. And lost players Was this enough to hurt any comeback attempt.? And not sure this person really. knew what was going on.
I don't remember any Ts last night. Just Houston shot like shit, and ISU didn't. Like 27% bad. Houston shot 4-22 from three. Looked like Houston just kind of gave up with 5 min left.
Iowa State just flat beat the shit out of Houston the other night. No excuses…..Houston had a couple of injured players, but ISU absolutely kicked their Texas asses all over the court. Iowa State is THAT good at times….but they have an ugly side too (and occasionally,they show it). How do you spell “slimeball”? K-E-L-V-I-N S-A-M-P-S-O-N……..

100 miles from home……and its really kind of a “middling” bracket…ain’t it? They will sell the joint out….it’ll be “Hilton-West”……just get ready for it……Keith Murphy and the Boyz will be using this phrase a lot this week…..
No Houston player punched a Clone in the tum? Told to me but like i said, not sure I heard was fact.
# 8 according to a ranking I saw....
Well Grambling is in the tournament and ISU beat them by 55 points! How the hell is Grambling in...oh yeah...
They should have played them already……
Yep.They should have played them already……
Iowa dodges UNI….and ISU dodges Drake….back in the good ol’ days they played in December!
Did they get an automatic bid after winning their conference/conference tournament?
In the real good old days we played Drake twice in December, home and away...They should have played them already……

Ralph wasn’t afraid of Drake…..He could be as nasty as the Drake student body sitting on the sidelines….
Ralph was a chain smoker, he'd smoke a pack at halftime but would only allow Johnny Johnson to bum 2 off him at half. That's a fact...
WS finished the regular season second behind Arizona. Oregon beat Arizona and Colorado to win the conference tournament.
I can remember seeing Ralph in person for the first time…he was at Wichita and playing Drake at Vet’s….Ralph spent the entire pregame standing just off the Vet’s court, observing his team go thru their workouts….and chain smoking Camels the entire time….he put away a few, too!
Drake can beat them. Drake can shoot the ball well and that can be isu's kryptonite. Yes ISU's defense can definitely be smothering but they aren't exactly an explosive team offensively and if a good shooting team has a decent night they can take them out. Everyone I've been talking to lately seems to think they are this unbeatable team and yes they are good but they have weaknesses and while it probably won't happen a team like drake can match up well if things go their way a little bit.
I’m being serious when I say this… I don’t think Drake will get to 50 pts if they play Iowa State, they will not be able to score.
Committee chair even said ISU’s non con was the issue that held them back from a higher seed or a possible number one so in a round about way he is correct.
2-0 vs Arizona and split games with Colorado and Oregon
I think Purdue actually got a fairly decent tourney draw this year, so they may go aways.
I look forward to the clones flaming out of the tourney early….again.
