I'm not feeling too good about this, especially since ISU got beat at home by Texas Tech. I feel they'll play one of their better games of the season, and knock down a ridiculous amount of 3s.
It's a sad day when BigTime in all his Crimson and Cream Homered Glory predicts us to lose by double digits
I cant say i disagree though, as uplifted as i have been in our past two victories i have to see us play that way on the road before i think we have a chance outside Lloyd Noble...
My first thought was to expect us to get slapped around on the road.
Then I look at Iowa State and I see Colorado all over again. They have nothing inside. Their 6'11" guy likes to float out to the 3 point line. I think we are underestimating how good we are defending the perimeter. A&M and Baylor took it to us inside. Look at how Clark and Pledger defended Higgins and Burks last week. Look at the way Fitz did his damage inside.
We might lose. But we are starting to become blue collar on the defensive end and it's keeping us in games. Clark is a nasty matchup for any of the ISU guards.
I expect us to be competitive and deploy the same gameplan we did vs CU.
if you go back and look at the predictions threads I started saying that 5 games ago and for some reason we started playing better....hence why I have made the same claim every game since.
