Something about a bug and a windshield. I’ll say this, when you are down three starters, games get harder to win. Games also get harder to win when the opposing team shoots 13% above their season average from 3-point range.
Missouri wanted this game more, it’s easier for us as fans to say ‘This game doesn’t really matter in the grand scheme of things’, because really, it doesn’t. Iowa State still leads the Big 12 standings, and still should be slotted around a 3-4 seed line going into next week.
However, it seems we’re pretty lost without Caleb Grill on the floor.
