It's on ESPN3 tomorrow at 11am central time, so we'll see.
You sure are a "worry wart" I believe. If didn't know better would believe you are not really an isub fan?
I am an ISU fan, and if you had paid ANY attention to ISU basketball the past 2 seasons you would understand why I made that statement. And actually what I had predicted to happen actually happened, except we won, which I was more than happy about. We built a double digit lead, gave up the lead in the 2nd half, as predicted, but actually came back to win. I've seen too many ISU games lately to know that that is just what happens with ISU basketball. We simply can not get a lead and hold it, the team thinks they can get a lead and simply "coast" to a win. It doesn't work that way and ISU simply has not figured that out.
Watch the Tulsa game Weds. night, it's on at 11:30pm EST, at some point we'll have a double digit lead, but Tulsa will come back, and at some point, regain the lead, now whether we win or lose is yet to be determined, it depends on if the players decide to play 40 minutes, 30 minutes, or 20 minutes.
