Wayne's World is at full mojo

This was a day the staff regrets it couldn't be a Hilton.

To think walking out of the CU loss that ISU would pull off what they have would have been inconceiveable. One wag insisted that the Cyclones had just played themselves out of not only the NCAA's, but the NIT as well. Scamp.

The fellow who wrote after the loss at Xavier that ISU won't be good until they find someone to score other than Blaylock, Stinson and Homan was a savant. ISU now has 6 legit scorers. The problem for opponents is that you have no idea who the breakout guy will be each night.

Making a Bobby Knoight team turn the ball over 10 times more than usual is fantastic. Forcing Bob to use a zone, a walk-on football player as anti-Homan muscle and a three-man midcourt trap to slow down Stinson, and surviving, means you have arrived as Opponent Teams Respect. Not only to they give you their best punch, they break out the bag of tricks.

ISU isn't on the NCAA bubble. Yet. But they can see it from here.

There are officially on the list of "Teams You Don't Want To Play Right Now" list.

Next unfortunate volunteer? Kansas State, whom ISU should have beaten in Manhattan, and couldn't win in OT in Austin the way ISU did last week. Way to stop the freefall, Horns.
