Somehow we pulled to within one point at the half, 35-36 South Carolina.

I'm pretty sure South Carolina has a goal of having as many fouls as they do points. Never change, Frank Martin.

Cyclones complimented our 1/18 three-point shooting with a stellar 18/33 on free throws :bravo:

And somehow only lost by 4. That's basically the only positive to take away form tonight. Jesus did the team have their heads up their asses.

ISU just playing bad right now. Can't make many shots and just some general sloppy play. Luckily Okie State is playing just as bad.

We have totally lost our offense these last couple games. lovely to have a slump but nice to see us at least be competitive when we can't hit a basket to save our lives.

Blocks and blocks. Hogue with the monster block to possibly save the game. Bad finish by OSU.

The whole game was about as non-Hoiball as possible, so it was fitting to end it with two blocks on the perimeter, which are basically anti-Hoiball.

Love the new avatar.

the worst part of baylor season ending ref calls is that no one cares about the school and the call isnt as outrageous as like the dallas/detroit call so no one remembers, except me

Ya'll only beat TCU on some questionable officiating in the last minute of the game. So I wouldn't bitch too much about it.

I know TCU has a totally legit reason to be playing on a high school court this season. But it is still funny every time they have a camera shot that makes it obvious.

It is 6 fouls to 7, hardly one sided. Especially given that WVU plays much more physically than ISU does.

They're letting West Virginia get away with whatever the hell they want. Hell, about a minute ago Staten just loving plowed into Hogue with absolutely no control and Hogue got called, somehow.

It wouldn't be so bad but with officiating like this it's painful. There is just way too much clock stoppage. It would be even worse if you ran into a ticky tack crew.

Their style is "dare the refs to foul out the entire team". Any ref that takes them up on it probably would.

WVU vs. South Carolina would probably resemble a hockey game.

You guys have a full court press and a hacking defense. We have neither and we've been called for more fouls. I'm not sure what you're bitching about.

My point was that Thoguh was acting like WVU got every call, which they didn't and a lot of calls went Iowa State's way too, especially some pretty obvious ones that were real head scratchers.

I didn't say WVU got every call. I said they were getting away with a lot of contact. Because they were.
