One down!

We are being outrebounded 19-8

I know Fran and his 2 foul rule…but you need Dix or Payton on the floor at all times…you gotta trust them not to get a 3rd in a half.

At the half 45-49 on a three at the buzzer by Iowa.

Peyton Wants this one

Could be his last game in a Hawkeye Jersey

This is killing us. This game has been a bust with no B1G Ten level B!G's in an Hawkeye Uniform. Under these circumstances the only chance a team has is to play excellent defense. Might win the powerball too.

The team shoots 61% and trails by 4. Yikes

If Thelwell makes his free throws we are tied right now. The shot difficulty difference is huge tho. We probably end up losing by 20 if this keeps up.

It's amazing the game is just a four point game. Our post play on both sides of the court is non-existent. Three point shots and mid-range jumpers. We got to hope that they run out of gas in the second half and Iowa gets a bunch of run-outs and turnovers. This can't be a half court game.

Agreed.

Seems like a typical Iowa first half this season. Hopefully, they can hang on and this is a game late in the 2nd half.

That pretty sums up the Hawks defense tonight. Out of position, just get blown by off the dribble, no box outs. Illinois on pace for 95 or better. Tough to win with that defense.

The loss of Freeman was devastating to this team. If he is playing I think we are up by ten at the half.

 

[BigD]

If we lose this one any odds on hearing from Beth with in a week. I think she goes another year with Fran, but the question is will Fran bow out and retire?

I have been selling the winning Powerball numbers all week

Three kids over at Butler. Can anyone remember when that has happened in college basketball?

“Defense? We dont need no stinking defense!”

Well, maybe a little D mght help!

Won’t Pmac be out of eligibility by the time Jack gets there?

"Iowa needs to do a better job of blocking out." SERIOUSLY???
