That was a great basketball game last night

Two teams that were basically unstoppable - who would fold first?

Really neither did - Iowa just refused to miss.

Some people want to think that game was bad defense but to me it was more great offense than anything.
 


Check out the thread that claims bad defense. Mostly everyone actually watched the game and understood what was going on. The BIGGEST victory I think we took from this game is how many times White either finished or tried finishing HARD. Several dunks, including one missed dunk that he got credit for because of how hard he tried hammering it through. Last year we lose this game 20 times out of 10. And we're still getting better every day.
 






It was fun to watch. I was actually surprised we hung on with the fatigue that would have to accompany the number of recent games the team has played. I kept waiting for the schedule to beat Iowa, but they fought through it.

You hit the nail on the head. I though we would look fatigued and sloppy after playing 4 games over a 6 day period, not to mention the long flight back. The whole team looked pretty fresh. That's the benefit of a deep bench though and I really look forward to the Big Ten Tournament when we can take advantage of that.
