Amen. I loved the switch that Capel had Cade and Blair doing on Garrett screens. We did a better than average job with our perimeter D as well.

ISU - 6 threes
OU - 11 threes
15 point differential...Pledge made more than ISU by himself.

The team has really stepped up the D; we have to have it to win.

Re: OU-Iowa State Box Score
Now we just need better gang rebounding the rest of the season to make up for our lack of height. 6 offensive rebounds to their 14 is tough to overcome.

The worst thing about getting out rebounded tonight was that a 6'6 guy killing us.

Re: OU-Iowa State Box Score
Blocking out would help our rebounding a lot. Whenever a shot goes up, our guys watch the ball instead of blocking out. IMHO Capel needs to have them running blockout drills until they can barely stand. It's pretty simple, Find and block out your man then find the ball.
That said, Capel has done a tremendous job getting these guys to step up on the defensive end. I'm sure they will continue to get better and this issue will also get better.

Yes, we must rebound better. I was very impressed at how we ran their 3 pt shooters off their sweet spots. We made them shoot alot of 3's on the move, or with a hand in their face. Excellent defensive strategy.:clap:clap

Re: OU-Iowa State Box Score
I did not see the game but OU had fewer TO, more assists, and more steals. They also held ISU to a low shooting percentage,including a really good job on three point shooting percentage. I hope that means OU defend the perimeter well and not simply ISU missing shots.
This team is going to get out rebound a lot but if they do other things like reduce turnovers, block shots get steals and defend the three point line they Can over come the rebounding.

Re: OU-Iowa State Box Score
This team has to play smart....fewer turnovers helps. They need to listen to their coach. They did a great job in the first half of defending the three.....but it seemed they got tired in the second half. Conditioning plays a big part in a team's success and with our shallow bench, I'm afraid our guys are going to be running on vapors before the year's out.
Blair seems to be doing better but he needs to watch his fouls. Newell is a talent but he still needs to learn the game. Fitz seems to be in foul trouble each game and I hope that CJ starts picking it up. And I think Neal has a lot of upside....he knows the game and plays decent D. Clark is a freak and will only get better. I hope Cade comes back to his game....yesterday he was in a funk....ft's at the end....everything was short.
This team has a chance...they need to take advantage of it.
