Except for this year with a TE pick.

Never thought I'd say this a year ago but we're better with Cook on the bench. Kreiner is better at layups,put backs, and short jumpers .

No doubt! I don't understand it.

And one hell of a run by Iowa the last 3 1\2 minutes. Yes they needed a bit of help but you act !like they went from down 15 to a win only because NW gave them the game .

I didn't say we should forget anything and I would tend to agree with what you say, but we've had numerous threads on that. This was a well played game and nothing wrong with enjoying it for a night.

Agreed. Beat the teams they should and it's a pretty dang good season. Another late season collapse won't sit well.

I wouldn't disagree with any of this. However, being happy and talking about the win last night isn't mutually exclusive from the above take. We can do both.

I'm 48 years old so far from a Millennial. I get just as pissed as anyone when Iowa teams play like crap. But there is nothing wrong with enjoying a good win either. Being nothing but negative all the time gets exhausting.

I've been on Hawkeye Nation for many years, and admittedly I'm mostly a browser. I come here to see what others think, know, and to celebrate or commiserate with other fans. There were many threads about the team quitting, fire Fran etc. after losing to MSU at home and a tough Gopher team on...

sure that's true but there's been occasions where teams have not made it because a division winner made it from a crappy division and worse records made it.

All sports with a playoff have better teams left out because divisions or conferences are not equal. Sometimes the two best teams are in the same division.

Spot on!

How did Minny beat Purdue?

Thanks, that’s probably best.

Why are the bigger ten podcasts not showing in my podcast app? 1st one did and then nothing for a few weeks. Thought the concept was scrapped already until I saw them on the website. The other podcasts show every time. Confused ...

You are spot on with this! It is mostly the fault of the local channels. This time it's KCCI 8 in Des Moines or the local ABC affiliate in KC. Next it will be a Dish channel or cable. I watch more of my local channels only because they are seamlessly integrated with my DIRECTV. As far as I'm...

Yeah it did :)

That's a fair question. One can say that Villanova got hot, were a better team etc. You have lower seeds all the time step up and upset teams. Iowa always seems to make it seem their seed was too high and the other's too low.

I ran into a guy in Pittsburgh last fall wearing a Hawkeye coat. When I mentioned the game to him he looked at me like I had two heads. I pointed to his coat and he said he was from California and got the coat at a flea market. No idea who the Hawkeyes were.

Yes I have had this happen, but like you seems sporadic and I too have not figured out the pattern. I have not had it happen lately however.
