That is true. They really haven't given a full effort in a long time.

Lol Oklahoma St. only beat Iowa State at home because they had a lot of help from the refs. Not to mention a lucky ass bank three at the half, similar to the only reason Kansas escaped Iowa State IN KANSAS! (Bank at the end of regulation)

Lots of teams get help from the refs at home. TCU just did and KU did against ISU. That's the way it goes in college basketball. ISU is a fine team that will make the tournament, but OSU is better than them.

[RustShack]

KU and OSU both wont be that lucky when they come to Ames.

I can only imagine how great the Clones would be if Steele Jantz was on their basketball team.

TCU didn't get any help from the refs tonite. GMAFB

Guess who's in first place this weekend after KU and KSU both lose? Yep, IOWA STATE!

We're just not that good right now. Fact is, we've looked bad all conference so far except the Baylor home game. We looked like crap the rest of the games. Teams know they can just pressure the hell out of the PG, pack it in on Withey, and make us score off the drive. Which is only resulting in bad shots and worse: turnovers.


Saturday is a must-win now. Not for standings, but for sanity. If they get drubbed in Norman, they're not winning the conference. KU still has roadies at Baylor, at ISU, at Okie LIght.

You'll still be in 2nd, since we hold the tiebreaker over you. But it was a nice effort nonetheless on your part.

True. I think you've beaten us there once in the last decade.
