Didn't we play quite a few of these non-conference games close last year as well?

I'm still gonna hold my breath until proven otherwise. We take way too many jumpers for my liking and don't get enough action going towards the rim. A lot of wasted movement on offense.

That is a very good basketball team we played tonight. I'm just not going to be sold on anything this early.

the defense lost this one for us....out of Grant's 6th season here the 84 points scored by ISU is the third most given up in games finished under triple OT.

(doesn't include two triple overtime games)

We played Duke close, but that was a team with two great players who we matched up well with. The fact that they had no legit big man also helped. ISU is a 3-pt shooting team with a bully-ball stud in Niang at the 4. That's been our 2 kryptonites defensively since we lost Hines. It was a terrible matchup and we gave them a hell of a game. I was actually encouraged tonight.
