    I don't know what to think about this one, except we had better play MUCH better than we have been lately. :idk:

    Yes we have and Warren is out tomorrow so I'm nervous about tomorrow. Texas has to lockdown Joens like they did the last time in order to win this game. I expect big games from Allen-Taylor, Collier and Chevalier will provide some spark coming off the bench

    With Gaston and Audrey out I think this is an easy win for ISU at home.

    Not saying I disagree, but this is a sad statement. The loss of these two players shouldn’t culminate in a loss. Obviously, I hope it doesn’t.

    I was already nervous before the Audrey announcement. Now I am more nervous. We really need Ortiz, Taylor and JAT hitting threes as well as driving to the basket to pull this off. Charli will see a triple every play.
    I can’t remember - did we have Ebo when we played them last?

    Box score from the last meeting. Ebo was MIA, Gaston stepped up big.

    I’m expecting an L, which means they will probably win knowing this team.

    I hope your reverse psychology works! It will be huge if it does because this IS a road game.

    An awful lot will have to go exceptionally well for us to win this game.

    Gaston was a big factor on offense and defense in the last game. She is unavailable. With both Gaston and Warren out, I am not seeing how the Horns will match up, particularly on the defensive end. For Iowa State, Kristen Scott and Ashley Joens will start and play most of the game. My guess is that Celeste and Karisma will have to guard Joens, which will likely lead to foul trouble. Joens is second behind Charlie Collier in FTA and makes .878% of them.

    Ebo is back but has looked out of condition. She has looked slower than usual getting up and down the floor and appears to be playing limited minutes. At her best, I can't see her being as good a combo with Collier against Iowa State's 4 guard line-up with Ashley Joens at the four.

    Offensively, Texas shot better than usual from three and Iowa State shot poorly. That combination is unlikely to happen again. I do hope Collier will work hard inside where she has her best advantage over Iowa State.

    Edit: I was pessimistic before the last game so you all have good reason to pooh pooh my pessimistic outlook,

    My outlook on this game isn't much (if any) different than yours. I'll be very pleasantly surprised if we can pull off a "W."

    I don’t know why but I have a feeling and it could be totally wrong but look for Holle to show up along with Chevalier and Ebo. If those 3 off the bench can produce good minutes and 12-20 points I think we win but weirder things have happened

    At least the Big 12 officials are consistent...consistently f*cked up. Some of those calls against Texas are beyond head-scratchers!!

    Hey Vic. You can’t take the timeouts with you!!! Charli waiting to get back in. Use your head coach.

    Great energy! I wish Vic wouldn’t have pulled Charlie. She was in a zone and I feel we we on the edge of a blowout.

    Up 12
    Their best player with 3 fouls on the bench
    4 timeouts
    Your 3 point defense has broke down
    You take those TOs into the half unused. SMH

    It really irks me to no end to write 7 figure checks and get middle school level coaching.

    I agree he should have used timeouts to stop that run and get Collier end but I don't agree with the middle school level coaching. That's a bit of exaggerating happening.

    Joanne hitting some crucial shots. Best the offense has looked in a month. The dribble weave reversal works wonders when guards are hitting shots!

    I'll say this about our offense tonight....getting back to the dribble drive offense makes a night vs day difference over whatever ******** we were running against WVU and Tech.

    I so underestimated our team. I am loving being wrong. I could not watch the game live but I will watch the recording.

    No box score available, but the foul calls seem lopsided in ISU's favor

    It's really ******** that they don't call the off-arm arm bar on every ISU drive!!!!
