Cyclones beat Buffs, earn 5th seed in KC

I won't be writing up too much a recap on this game but Stinson, Blalock, and Carr all played fantastically and carried us to the win. I don't want to forget about Staple's 14 rebounds (6 offensive) and 4 steals either. The Cyclones did what they needed to do to get the win and it could have been large other than some timely three point shooting from CU.

A couple of interesting notes. This marked the first time since 1979 that the Cyclones lost three conference games in Hilton and beat those same three teams on the road (Kansas, Colorado, and Nebraska).

The Big 12 bracket is setting up just about as good as it could be for the Cyclones. Missouri's win over Kansas gives the #1 seed to Oklahoma. This means that KU and OSU are on the other side of the bracket giving ISU a potential road to the finals of Baylor-Texas Tech-Oklahoma. Don't get me wrong, even beating these three teams in three days will be tough but they've beaten each of the teams in their half at least once and had a good shot at beating NU and Mizzou twice. First game is Thursday at 2 PM.

Most projections have ISU solidly in the dance with a 10 seed or better. Looking good for the Clones. Now, let's go make some noise in KC.
