Iowa State guard Curtis Jones says the seventh ranked Cyclones have focused on offense as they get ready for Thursday night’s quarterfinal round game at the Big 12 Tournament in Kansas City. In the last four games ISU has averaged 61 points and only managed 58 in Saturday’s loss at Kansas State. They will open against the winner of tonight’s game between Texas and K-State.

Jones says everybody has a role on the offensive end.

Iowa State coach T.J. Otzelberger says there are a lot of factors that have affected the production on offense, including the grind of a tough Big-12 race.

Otzelberger two areas of emphasis this week have been ball movement and screening.

Iowa State is 24-7 and Otzelberger likes the identity of his team heading into the post season.
