    Iowa St. 44
    Drake 79
    WTH!!! How can Coach Mac be worse at Iowa St than he was at UNI?

    That's a "behind-the-shed" a$$ whippin'.

      Then UNI loses to a poor Iowa team. Now the Panthers have two bad losses (SDSU, Iowa).

          Is it actually possible that Drake might be the best team in Iowa this year?

            They seem to be consistently good so far. We'll know for sure after they play UNI.

              They were last year I believe, going 4-0 against ISU, Iowa, UNI.

                If you're not watching the LSU-Villanova game on LSU right you should. Their twin 6-11 bookends are going to present some real challenges for us.

                Anthony Randolph is the most highly touted. Runs the ball down the floor like a PG, stops and pops from 15-18 feet, no problem.. They are blocking lots of shots.

                Villanova's only score in the first 5 minutes was from a goal tending call. Rebounding, ball movement, patience and penetration, will be key for the Shox. Both Durley and PT will have their work cut out for them.

                And the crowd will have to do their part also....

                  I watched some. LSU had 6 blocks in the first half. #21 is going to be a problem. I think his name is Chris Johnson. He has the frame of Manute Bol.

                    Villanova is 3-21 from the perimeter players.

                    LSU has a lot of great 1-on-1 players and some great interior D around the hoop.

                    LSU might have a problem covering frontcourt players on the perimeter. LSU's big guys spend most of their time waiting for something to happen around the basket.

                    LSU doesn't box out well.

                      LSU just lost. Villanova closed the game on a 35-13 type run.

                        I watched LSU play Chaminade last month. I knew then that their long, athletic big guys would be a major problem for us unless we had a certain 7-footer with decent defensive ability.

                          Wow! I watched the game up until half time. I would have never guessed the outcome.

                          As my good, close personal friend, JJ Clamdip, who has been banned from this esteemed forum, likes to say, "That is why they play the game."

                            updated:

                            UMKC scored 105 pts....so they probably won right? Nope, they lost to Oakland in OT 114-105.

                            Tad Boyle's team improved to 5-2 with an OT win against Bowling Green.
