Jordan also has a game winner vs Wisconsin, at Madison no less. But the strength that their guards possess year year out is a huge factor in their success and in their ability to both legally and illegally push opposing guards around.They do look like they could push Jordan around and I get that they're big and that's exciting and all and we hate Iowa because they're our team and Wisconsin is flexing in the weight room and we're small and all of that. But Iowa's been fairly bad at basketball since Jordan's got here and I think they are 2-0 vs Wisci and Jordan averages 12 pts, 8 assists to 2 turnovers in those games. So, I am not saying your wrong, they can probably push Jordan around, but count me as one not gushing over it.
Look at the matchups between Gabe Olesaini and Nigel Hayes, especially the one that led to the eruption of Mount McCaffrey in Madison. From a physical standpoint, especially in lower body strength, they were mismatchups.
