If Iowa runs the table, we will be in the play-offs having beaten Wisconsin, Minnesota, Michigan, Penn State and probably Ohio State. Now we just have to run the table again and win the B1G championship. ;)
While I agree it's kind of a no win situation for Iowa, it has become a fun, nail biting series. It's good for the state and it is certainly good for ISU. I know no one cares outside the state of Iowa, but for 1 week EVERYBODY in Iowa cares about the same game.
Anybody expecting Christian Williams to be a better point guard next season than a Senior Mike Gesell is on crack. Before he is done, there is a chance that Christian will be better than Mike was, but he is not even close yet.
We have so many question marks for next year that it's likely we are an NIT team at best. Hope I'm wrong but we will go from being the most experienced team in the B1G to the least experienced.
I went to Cyclone Fanatic and the McKay thread was pretty good. I think the bottom line is Prohm is showing the team that HE is king and he makes the rules. McKay is very talented but he IS a head case.
We have evry chance to win this thing. We need to take care of Bucky first and get some positive momentum. We have played well at OSU in the past so I'm not prepared to put that in the loss column at all. Michigan is a yoyo team, you never know what team will show up and Indiana at home on...

Conference championship - gone. Any hope of a deep run in the NCAA tournament - gone. Recruiting in the future - extremely damaged. I wish I lived in Vegas so I could put a whole bunch of money down on every opponent we play from here on out. We won't win a single game the rest of the...
Hilton has great student support and Carver doesn't. Plus ISU doesn't have a good football team or wrestling team so for them, hoops is it. Iowa has won more at home because over the long haul, we have had a better program.
Brady Ellingson was rated one of the top 10 shooters in the nation. (No link). It is a big surprise to me that he is not hitting his shots. He is playing for a reason and we need to hope his shooting comes around immediately.
