Looking forward to the Panthers playing ISU next weekend. Did anyone see ISU vs. Portland State the other night? Wow, that was ugly with a capital U. I would generously describe Portland State as mediocre. In fact they looked like a DII team masquerading as D1. And ISU struggled with them all night before final pulling it out by 11 or so.
If you want to see the difference between a MacDermott coached team and a Wayne Morgan coached team, just watch a tape of that mess. ISU has some guards with physical talent, but they looked lazidasical and sloppy. I couldn't figure out if they were actually running an offense of any sort all night. And they kept showing shots of Morgan standing on the sideline with this blank look on his face. Not saying anything, not really coaching, just standing there gazing into the distance. And underneath, ISU misses Holman bad. REEAAAAAAAAAL bad. If Stout throws an elbow next week with one of those gunboats, he might break one of their post boys in half.
Much more worried about the Iowa game. No one hates to say it more than me, but Hawks look pretty stout so far. More depth than expected and games against Kentucky and Texas under their belts will help. The Brunner, Horner, Haluska combo vs. the Jacobsen, Crawford, Stout, Coleman combo will be a great match up one more time. Glad this one is in the dome.
