#7 Iowa St vs #2 Texas A&M - 3/24/21

[Adriacus]

Texas A&M is a good little team. Outside the SC game, I feel they have been trending the wrong direction for a while now

In which sport? Because it isn’t basketball.

 

[triaddukefan]

Jones gets an O board and put back. 35-30 at the half. Anybody's ball game.

Throw out the record books when two land grants mix it up

Are you sure? They lost the SEC semifinal to a non-S16 team and should have lost their first round game were it not for the most egregious reffing I’ve seen in some time.

Sad these 2 games are on at the same time, cuz they're the 2 best games so far.

 

[DeeHusky]

A&M doesn’t have the offense to be playing from behind

 

[cancontent]

Don't understand why they're not trying to go inside more with Texas A&M. I know ISU is doubling a lot, but these missed 3s without rebounders are hurting them,

 

[Kaizen]

Iowa State made 11 three .. amazing

 

[Blue Huskie]

Sad these 2 games are on at the same time, cuz they're the 2 best games so far.

And their on at EXACTLY at the same time. Getting ESPN to use staggered starting times is like pulling teeth. NOT fan friendly having 2 close games ending at the same time.

Are we talking a fan in the stands? If so, I suspect it would be the Joens' father. He's a tad intense to put it mildly.

It's 100% him, and ESPN is making a mistake by trying to spotlight him by showing him in the crowd and talking about him. He's an actual crazy person.

Hope Iowa State can keep those legs strong tho, cuz if they start fatiguing and the 3s don't fall, A&M has the advantage. Even though Ciera Johnson carries a lot of weight and might start getting fatigued too.

I was gonna say, Johnson cannot be in good shape lol

To be fair, she’s been high-impact tonight.

I'm genuinely curious on how crazy he is lol

 

[nwhoopfan]

ISU seems over reliant on 3's...but they keep making enough of them to maintain the lead. Helps that A&M is shooting poorly.

the SEC doesn't do offense, which is why they are losing all these games.

 

[Gamecockfan77]

Again feeling vindicated about wanting no part of the Iowas.

you don't want to get in a rock fight with a team with a player that can go for 30.

Well Lisa Bluder did not recruit any of his daughters despite the fact that they are great players and live in Iowa City, and it's entirely because of him. He has to sit with the principal at their high school games (when he's allowed to go). And he got tossed out of Carver Hawkeye Arena by security this year before the game even started.

It goes beyond that into his personal life as a business owner where it just gets sad and very clear that the guy is not getting the help he obviously needs.

 

[nwhoopfan]

A&M should play thru Nixon until that doesn't work anymore.

 

[SECbbfan24]

A&M's defense so far

 

[darkstar1]

This Ashley Joens is a player. A&M can’t cover her. But fir silly turnovers Iowa St would be up 20+

 

[nwhoopfan]

Donarski suddenly feeling it.

 

[Kaizen]

Now ISU 13 three ..

 

[cancontent]

Johnson's gassed. She's not running the floor even after causing the turnover.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Nixon and Johnson are pretty much all A&M has today. 35 of their 48 points.

 

[SimpleDawg]

forget it, i'm rooting for the Cyclones.

Nothing against A&M, but they didn't deserve to get past Troy, so I'm a bit catty over that refs-led win.
