Iowa State 71, Houston 67


Final - 12.28.2008 1 2 Total
Iowa St. Cyclones 26 45 71
Houston Cougars 27 40 67

Complete Coverage >


Not quite sure how we managed to win this one. It was an ugly game to behold, that's for sure. 

Craig Brackins dropped 38 points, but tonight's win goes much deeper than that. Justin Hamilton showed up in a big way in place of Alex Thompson, who suffered a minor ankle injury earlier this week. The true freshman dropped eight points on 4-7 shooting to go with 12 boards. I've long said he's guy that seems to know where he needs to be on the court, it's a matter of him putting it together. As he gets experience and learns how to score on the block, he has the tools to be a serviceable center. As of right now, if he can provide a decent complement to Brackins down low, he'll continue to get minutes.

Although the Cyclones tried their damndest to give this one away (up 6 with 35 seconds left and allowing Houston a chance to tie), they managed to show some mettle on the road and was able to wash away a little of the stink from the loss to the Jackrabbits.

I won't be able to listen to this one, which might not be a bad thing. I'll be quite surprised if we win this game, with McDermott holding a 5-21 away record at Iowa State, including 3-7 in non conference action. Houston is a better team than Hawai'i was.

So, yeah....

ISU loses its first commitment since the coaching change in 3-star QB Taylor McHargue.

Former ISU Linebacker Eilers Shot Dead

Really sad story. Eilers had worked his way into the MMA circuit a few years after leaving Iowa State. Yet another blow to the Iowa State football program, which can't seem to catch a break.

Condolences to Justin's family, friends and loved ones.

Scout.com: Iowa State Right On The Money With Reynolds

Darius Reynolds seemingly makes it official to CycloneSportsReport. "Money" is a 3 star on Scout, and a 4 star on Rivals, making him ISU's top commit, as well as Rhoads' first commit as Cyclone head coach.

Reynolds has been favoring ISU for a while, and talked to Rhoads on Christmas day to seal the deal.

Happy Holidays!

Happy Holidays!

At this time of year, many are exchanging gifts, spending "quality" time with their familes, and thinking of New Years resolutions.

As a Cyclone fan, I sent on a wish list to Santa that I'd like to share with you:

  • To have the basketball team be competitive in the Big XII
    • At the very least, could we at least NOT finish 11th or worse?
    • Please?
  • A NCAA championship for the Wrestling Team
  • To have the Women's Basketball Team make a deep NCAA tourney run
  • A bowl game for the football team next year
  • A Lump of Coal for Gene Chizik

AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST:

  • To have ISU fans become excited about ISU athletics again!

Happy Holidays all! Have a Happy and SAFE New Years!

South Dakota State 65, Iowa State 58

Not much to break down in this one. All the credit in the world to South Dakota State. We continue to be a running joke. I don't think there's any remaining game on the schedule that can be considered a sure win anymore.

As you can see from the gamethread, I was giving the team another chance to shake off the bad vibes. Didn't work.

I'm totally apathetic towards this loss. That should be the most concerning thing of all.

Let's try this again. After a game where we seemingly should have pulled away from Jacksonville State, we almost blew it. South Dakota State should be an easy win. For the love of God, let's play like it.
