We couldn’t expect a happy press conference after the Red Raiders lost to the Cyclones the third of their last four games, falling to the third place in the Big 12 standings with a 4-3 record (15-4 overall).
Actually, coach Beard wasn’t satisfied with his team, as he recognized Iowa State was the best team of the night. He said that now it’s the turn for his team to fight, to recover from these losses and find again a good pace.
He also specified he takes all responsibilities for this loss, as players didn’t show the right mentality against a valid Big 12 team. Every team in the conference is a good team, and he expects a strong answer on Tuesday when Texas Tech will host Oklahoma State.
