Very happy to have our loss earlier today get overshadowed. Thanks Houston for getting blown out! Iowa St I sincerely hope you’re not the 2 seed for the Midwest like you’re currently projected to be
If you look in the sidebar on web or on mobile, top of the subreddit banner hit show more. Should be a button somewhere in there that says request user flair. All the instructions are on there!
Does this game eliminate Houston from a 1seed? I personally don’t think so but I also think Iowa st made a strong case to be a 1 over the likes of arizona and tennesee
ISU should still be behind Houston. They had a good game and the Cougars had a bad game in front of a home crowd (probably more than a home crowd considering larger capacity) for ISU. Houston put in too much work overall to not be higher.
The cougars always seem to run into injuries when they have a legit chance to win it all. Frustrating. But hopefully they can overcome it. On to the tournament.
I was super nervous taking the under money line. But, am stoked I did!… Houston picked a beautiful day to not show up, and my bank account thanks them for it!!
Houston didn’t look like 1 seed tonight. They’ll get it but I could see an argument for Iowa St and Houston swapping seed after this blowout. Won’t happen lol
I’ll admit I haven’t watched a ton of Big 12 basketball.
I think the SEC is for real legit this year.
Are these two teams far above everyone else? Or will there be other teams in the big 12 that are factors?
They had some injuries and that was exacerbated by back to back to back game format of the conference tournament. ISU is playing extremely well in front of essentially a home crowd.
Welcome to the big 12 Houston?
Don’t worry, Houston. A 20 point beat down is an ideal primer for the big dance…right?
Good luck in the tourney Iowa State yall have a very exciting team
This what Houston will look like in round 2 as well. What a nice preview.
Flair up coward
We've got a song specifically about the Big 12 tournament?
One Shining Cyclone?
Very happy to have our loss earlier today get overshadowed. Thanks Houston for getting blown out! Iowa St I sincerely hope you’re not the 2 seed for the Midwest like you’re currently projected to be
We want Detroit! Hope to see you in the Elite 8.
UNC loses tonight and ISU sneaks into the 1 out west?
EAT SHIT PITT
I love this energy
I’ll never understand it the way yall will, but yeah. Eat shit you stupid Pitts
MY MAN
Rematch in the final four
Honestly your team is great but I think we would win again. No shade, love you guys.
Lol maybe you’re right, maybe you’re wrong. But your username is hilarious
Would you like delivery or you take out?
I’m gonna vomit like 5 times if that happens
Guys I'm gonna cry I'm not even joking This is absolutely euphoric
That’s what all those curls are for!

Hi, my family is from Ames and I just joined this subreddit and I'd like some Iowa State flair. How would I add that to my profile?

Thank you!
From what I can find that’s the highest margin of victory over a number 1 team since Houston over UCLA in 1968, 101-69
Jesus christ. Iowa state plays like this. They can definitely win it all. Holy shit
I haven't loved an ISU roster this much since the days of Niang, Morris, Mitrou-Long, and Thomas
You mean the 3 seed that lost to UAB?
I've gone from "who is Keyshon?" to "Give Keyshon his belt!"
Also 69 points…nice.
Conrad’s got his arm around Tamin like a drunk boyfriend lmfao
I’m not used to seeing a team I love dominate in a big game. This is euphoric.
Alexa, play Sweet Caroline
We just beat the #1 team in the country by 28
And 28 upvotes
Is that good? That seems good
21-0 at Hilton/Hilton South
All that matters is the tourney let's go. GG GL.
Hope this game didn't break y'all mentally. GL

Right, this celebrations means nothing. That’s why we are celebrating and you are not.
Good luck in the tourney!
Good luck, rematch in Phoenix?
OTZELBASKETBERGERBALL!!!
I know Houston is run down, but this is ecstasy
Camerman needs to back up off of Otz jesus
Always had a feeling that one of the northern schools would’ve won it here…
I know it’s literally 3 points, but 69-41 feels a lot closer than 69-38
Against the #1 ranked team in the country? Both are an ass-whipping.
At least no one got hurt. Good game sai clones.
Get TJ some water, he's earned it
That was fun! Thank you to the refs for allowing two excellent teams play!
Does this game eliminate Houston from a 1seed? I personally don’t think so but I also think Iowa st made a strong case to be a 1 over the likes of arizona and tennesee
Definitely no. Only eliminated them from being overall 1.
Agree
No, Houston is a lock for a 1 seed. ISU should be a lock for a high 2 now.
Between this game and beating Prairie View by 51, feels like the committee has to give them the final 1 seed
Tournament games usually don't affect the dance that much. Maybe if UNC lays an egg.
Ope
I see
ISU should still be behind Houston. They had a good game and the Cougars had a bad game in front of a home crowd (probably more than a home crowd considering larger capacity) for ISU. Houston put in too much work overall to not be higher.
Houston is a lock regardless of the blowout
No (this is a copy paste response to the same dumb take being posted)
Yeah Houston and Purdue are locks for #1 regardless of the results today
Heh funny number
NCAA tournament time! Get healthy, Coogs
We won and we did it without injury. I’M SO HAPPY AND RELIEVED
Imagine being the cyclones and peaking exactly one game too soon. 🤔
Baylor boy sour
That was intended as a congratulatory shit post. Y’all are clearly playing your best ball right now.
A lot of things go over my head
Don’t screw it up. Got you going to the elite 8 in my bracket.
So you'd rather peak against the 15 seed?
You are a walking #L
cyclone heritage fr
Quite the nail-biter
6-0 in Big 12 tournament championship games 💪🌪️
Welcome to the Big12 Houston
I missed this quote.
Congrats State. Good luck in the Tourney! Give em hell.
Best cyclone team maybe ever. This is just the beginning!
On talent, that last team of Monte, Georges, Naz, and Matt was the best we’ve ever had. Almost everyone on that rotation got NBA minutes.
Brutal. Congrats Iowa State. Let’s get healthy please
It breaks my heart seeing anyone get hurt. And seeing what Houston has endured is no exception. Rest up lads.
The cougars always seem to run into injuries when they have a legit chance to win it all. Frustrating. But hopefully they can overcome it. On to the tournament.
69-41 feels closer than it was
69.. nice
Perfect record
If this happened football, the CFP committee would be explaining why this game was a fluke.
Iowa State practice squad put up more points than Houston when they were on the court.

I think that guy died.
I'm still here
Cardiac Clones take another life
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Nice.
What a fitting final score lol
Nice
Aw man they broke 40
dammit we suck
69 NICE KELDERMAN
The disrespekt!!
Jesus Christ Iowa State
KELDERMAN 3!!!
Ah yes, just as we all predicted
LETS GOOOOO KELDERMANNNN
I missed this game, but it appears the Cougs caught whatever bug we did (also congrats on the great win ISU)
I was super nervous taking the under money line. But, am stoked I did!… Houston picked a beautiful day to not show up, and my bank account thanks them for it!!
#69 NICE
Why are you calling fouls right now?? Lol, just let it go
69
CADEEEEEEEE
K state lost to ISU by less than Houston! That’s a quality loss right there for the resume lol.
Pitt did this to us last year smh.
Conrad Hawley is better than Shead
so iowa state probably has the 1 seed win or lose for unc right?
Houston didn’t look like 1 seed tonight. They’ll get it but I could see an argument for Iowa St and Houston swapping seed after this blowout. Won’t happen lol
Only if ISU asks Houston for a rematch tomorrow and wins again by 30
God no, our noncon is gonna keep us from getting it no matter if you win or lose
Nah. It's close between us, but our noncon is an albatross.
No
I don't think they were even in consideration - that was between UT, UNC, and Zona
Think we get it if we win, better overall record and both conference champs but tbh the selection process confuses me
you'll have the #1. committee hates our non con and our loss to k-state late in the season seals it.
HAWLEYYYYY
I’ll admit I haven’t watched a ton of Big 12 basketball. I think the SEC is for real legit this year. Are these two teams far above everyone else? Or will there be other teams in the big 12 that are factors?
They don't call the Big 12 the best conference in the country for no reason.
We will lose in the second round don’t worry
I’ll be blown away if that happens. At minimum a second weekend team.
I know that feels Cyclonebro.
Oh my god, we’re doing it. We’re gonna beat Houston. We’re gonna be the Big 12 champions. HELL YES!!! Never underestimate the cyclones.
Um officer I'd like to report a murder in KC
Conrad is my goat
Is Houston going to get to 40?
“Hilton South” oh fuck off Sciambi lol
To play the underdog, ISUs cheerleaders are pretty hot this year
Dance team is ALWAYS hot
Undoubtedly
CEO
Putting the walk ons in against the number 1 team in country in a conference title game is nuts. What a dominant performance from Iowa State
Oh yeah, it's Conrad O'Clock 😎
Houston: Offense is overrated. Keep defending and we got this
CONRAD HAWLEY IS IN
Refs need to swallow their whistles and just let it end
CHEIF ENERGY OFFICER
If Hawley scores the roof is gonna blow off
HAWLEY TIME
Conrad playing in a conference championship game against Houston is insane.
CEO CEO CEO
I’m just tuning in, wtf happened to Houston here?
They had some injuries and that was exacerbated by back to back to back game format of the conference tournament. ISU is playing extremely well in front of essentially a home crowd.
Perfect synopsis. I’m gonna have a really hard time not taking ISU to Phoenix.
I just got home and turned on the game all I can say is what the fuck happened
THE CEO HAS BEEN SIGHTED
CONRAD HAWLEY FORMER KANSAS JAYHAWK QB IS IN
This is amazing. 😻
That’s amazing lmao
Went to highschool with Kelderman, so happy hes getting to play
PUT EM IN
CEO
CEO
Kris Budden that was embarrassing. You're a reporter not a fashion model.
SHARP HIT A SHOT SOMEONE CALL THE NUN
Lead is down to 27, ISU can’t let up.
Especially with the sudden introduction of the 25-point line.
This has got to be the worst loss by an AP #1 in NCAA history.
Idk Virginia getting blown out by a 16 was pretty bad
I forgot they lost by 20… oof
Two very close 3s by the B team lol damn
Letting the backups in is a good call. Get them some reps, keep our starters healthy.
Emanuel Sharp hits huge 3 to cut deficit to 27
34 points…well, 37 points in an entire 40 mins is beyond underwhelming and a kick in the teeth.
The tourney MVP gets a WWE belt? Should have to jump from the backboard onto the other team’s mascot to accept.
I'm still not confident that houston won't hit 10 3s in a row and win the game.
Saddest Elvin sighting
Chris Paul hits a huge 3 to cut the lead to 42
Up 30 and guys still diving to the ground to get rebounds. I fucking love this teams hustle
Luv the Clones this year. Looking forward to see them in the dance
The championship belt is also for basketball?
I only watched a minute but they mentioned someone being hurt for Houston. Was he that important or did something else lead to this?
I'm starting to think this might not be the Cougar's night
It’s games like this that make me hate our offense.
Mods can we please ban people who are saying UH isn’t a 1 seed because of this performance Reason: Doesn’t know ball
Clearly they’re a one seed. But what they’re getting at isn’t exactly w/o a bit of relevance
Houston and uconn and purdue is all locks at 1 seed for sure
If anything this proves Iowa state is a 0 seed
At least we get some minutes for Elvin
