Iowa State’s back-to-back losses in the Orlando ESPN Who Gives A Damn Tournament ignited Cyclone Twitter like the Batsignal on a cold night in Gotham City. The masses took to social media to declare that the season was over after losing two games in November to Power 5 teams. But never fear, Cyclone fans, I am here to pronounce that the season can still be salvaged.
Iowa State’s first loss of the weekend to Virginia Tech by 9 points had most of us, myself included, gesturing at the box score with fever at Tech’s 11 made 3’s at a close to 40% clip.
