Pathetic. Disappointing. Awful.

Iowa State’s 84 - 68 loss to Iowa was all of the above, and more. I, myself, have plenty of other R rated adjectives I’d rather use to describe a performance that was embarrassing for a variety of reasons, including: Poor 3 point defense, poor 3 point shooting, inability to get stops, and a start that was so slow I actually thought the Iowa State offense was playing in reverse.

Shooting Woes

I’ll just say it: Iowa State simply does not have the bombers to stand around and shoot 3’s as a viable strategy to win games.
