Worried about Tamin? This hopefully looks stupid in a few weeks, but he looks tired and a step slow right now. It's been that way for awhile too. He isn't cutting hard, shooting terrible, turnovers are up, driving into crowds, etc etc.

Hey, don't shoot the messenger...

The Cyclones and Sooners tip off around 7:00 tonight in Hilton Coliseum. The game will be carried on ESPN+. I’ll have the live courtside updates in the thread below.

Although it's from nine years ago, still a pretty good watch.

Rare for the big media to trash the big 1o and sec.

to see Ron Falenchek at the game tonight. Random. Gabe Kelscheur too

They took on Southwest Baptist in Bolivar and lost 74-88. They were 15-5 in conference last year, but have just 5 wins this year with one to play.

Audi’s HS teammate, Molly Joyce, had 24 for Truman State.

Little Jeff Horner is the TSU men’s coach and has six players from Iowa. Looks like he is taking a page from TJ as his guys play a very smothering D. Held SBU to 18 in the first half.

6. Iowa State (22-6)
Last week: 7
One number to know: 27.7
For anyone brave enough to watch Iowa State’s Wednesday night win over Oklahoma — or who had their eyelids taped open in front of that rock fight, like some sort of punishment — this number should not come as a crazy surprise. But that 27.7 represents the number of 2-point attempts opponents average against the Cyclones — which, shocker, is the fewest any team in the country allows. We love the heat maps at CBB A
nalytics, and these two depicting where opponents shoot against Iowa State are just gold:

TJ Otzelberger’s team gives up some stuff at the rim, but otherwise, that is exactly as frosty a defense as you’d like. Of course, that number isn’t so low strictly because the Cyclones force bad shots; they’re also just tough to get 2s off against, given the way they turn you over. ISU is second nationally in defensive turnover percentage, per KenPom, forcing turnovers on just over a quarter of their opponents’ possessions on average. The Cyclones’ eight steals vs. Oklahoma on Wednesday actually decreased their season-long average of 10.6 takeaways per game. No, the offense is not always brilliant. But in terms of gritty, mucky NCAA Tournament games, against teams you’ve sometimes only had one day to prepare for? You can do a lot worse than being elite at steals and not allowing 2s. — Marks

No one is as stupid as Trump and his minions.

...but the Twister Sisters lead #15 KSU, in Manhattan 56-52 after 3.

——- none of the starters scored in double figures

—— the bench outscored the starters

—— and Iowa State won????

That’s gotta be one of the weirdest stat lines I can remember.

I'm always nervous. I trust this team, they are tough, but we absolutely need this game tonight. OU extremely beatable. The next three after this have me more worried. UCF at their place is going to be tough and I think a loss. We really don't match up well with BYU, and I have a feeling they will get us in Hilton. Then at KSU always tough, but we will have something to play for to stay ahead of the team behind us. OU is our easiest game coming up IMHO. Gotta get this win. We won't lose all 4, but I can see losing at least 2 of 4.

UCF is going to beat OSU and that will keep them in Quad 1 when we play on Saturday.

And they just played on screen that we were a 2 seed and KU was a 3 seed according to Lunardi.

I took a picture because I couldn’t believe it.

Why is the audio so bad on most espn games? Maybe I need a hearing aide. I've noticed it at Hilton too, even when I know the announcers are there. It's like they pipe in sound the whole game and that noise makes it hard to hear the play by play. You don't have normal quiet times and loud times. You can't tell when the crowd is into it because of the constant noise. It just isn't real.

Timberlake just got hurt with the game at 26-27 KU. On ESPN+

I jinxed ‘em…now 26-33 KU.

See Tampa all over the place.

A couple send him to the Lions in the first.
Others to the steelers in the second and the third.
One Raider second round mention.

Combine week.
Hope he runs well.

Mocks go all over the place when they make trades.
Really changes where guys fall.
