ISU's home win % in the last few years is insane. From 2012-2015 then went 62-5 at home. I think these teams are pretty even on a neutral floor, but since it's at Hilton, ISU probably thinks they have already won.

Yikes...that's a tall order. We will need to be at our very best!

I'm wondering what happens if Gary can't play. Scott will obviously be used a lot...but will we use 4 guards if Kyle gets in trouble? I would think so... I can't imagine using Scott with Brooks or Moore.
 
Line is not out yet even though others are for tomorrow. VegasInsider has 'Gary Clark?' listed. He's gotta be worth a point or 2 on a line.
 
Most with inside knowledge feel like Gary will likely play. To what extent, or how healthy he truly is, seems very unknown.

Having tried to play sports on turned ankles only to turn them again...I hope we error on the side of caution. As we saw last year... Gary is not the same player with a bad ankle. I would prefer a healthy Scott to an injured Clark.

That being said I hope he's recovered...we could sure use him. I don't think Cronin will risk it if there is any question this early in the season.

I believe Cronin and staff will do what's in best interest for Gary and the team especially being it's so early in the year. If he's out there then i expect it's not a worry
 
We need to dish it inside every offensive possession they really are not big. I just can't wrap my head around how they could possibly stop Washington? Scoring should not be an issue.

I agree. Try to set some screens for Evans too...to get him in space. We will probably have to shoot 40 percent from 3 to win this game and hope our D is on lock down mode.
 
I would pick Cumberland to have a nice game but I think KJ will get 30 plus minutes because of his D...lol. we can't rely on the switch all night because their guards will find the open man.
 
I think you have to play Gary for the next 10 days until after the Butler game. Then if his injury isn't getting better, you can rest him for the rest of the non-conference schedule until New Years.
 
We need our best effort tonight. TC needs to step up on both ends of the floor. Washington needs to stay on the floor. For Evans its time to show everyone your a guy who can play in the League.

I thought Thursday would never get here.

I think we need to take advantage of any easy looks we get but I really think with our size against there 4 guards this one will be a rock fight if we are to win.
