USC shot 10 of 15 from 3, outrebounded Iowa 37 to 20, and had more assist. Yet, won by 10. Iowa won the 2nd half 57 to 50. USC is mostly Seniors and Juniors. Iowa just couldn't get the lead under 5pts. Great effort, but USC was on fire from 3pt range to ice the game.

USC's 3 pt shooting was unconscious in the first half. Iowa's guards are so small compared to SC's. Iowa can't keep the SC guards out of the lane.

I looked at the NET ranking and Iowa is 54, they are still in the range to make it in . They have no Quad 1 wins so that is a negative. There a Jekyll and Hide team. from game to game and half to half. They need to find 9 more wins to make the NCAA tourney. I Fran will retire after the season...

I deliberately avoided watching the game other than to check the score. I looked at the box score at the half and saw that the offensive statistics were based more on special teams and MO penalties. Kirk has no creativity or doesn't allow it. I wish Dan Campbell for the Lions designed special...

Archaic offense and poor QB recruiting evaluation is my answer to your question. Offensively Iowa was near the bottom of the NCAA in passing yards.

The issues coming with world depopulation will impact society in massive economic terms. Western Civilization has been the major driver of developments leading to increased life expectancy and lower birth rates. It is expected the world population will decline by 2 billion people before the turn...

Rob hit on the fact that Fran can be enjoyable to be around when he is in the company of others. He doesn't come across that way on television during games or the the Q and A sessions afterward. It has affected his likeability. Another problem that I heard was complaints about playing his sons...

I didn't watch the game other than checking the score every so often. It appears the offensive rebounding was the critical difference. ISU had 7 more shots and 10 more offensive rebounds. Three point shooting was the same for both teams. ISU had 2 more steals, but turnovers ended up the same...

I wandered over to Cyclone Fanatic to read the comments about the game. They have a 39 page thread compared to this 4 page thread. There a lot of whining about the referees, their head coach, and the play of some of their team. It is suggested that the SWARM pumped a lot of NIL money into the...

There is no going back on NIL and the transfer options. The conferences and universities can set the rules for participation, but they won't. The dollars are too great for the universities to institute more stringent academic achievement levels. I'm sure some of the older audience here, remember...

Jensen got out coached in this game. Yeah, the ladies committed a ton of turnovers, but Iowa got over the half court line and stopped to set up. When they didn't they scored some easy points. This game reminded me of the assault West Virginia tried against Iowa. It was an ugly game. Tennessee...

Peyton needs to sit. Iowa could put Kingsbury out there and do better at shooting.

If statistics are for losers, call me a loser. I’d like to shed some light on those that puff out their chest with pride over the overall win total of their favorite football team. Our friendly foe just across the Missouri river frequently points to their team’s great success being among the top...

I'm glad that it is. I think this season has been a continuation of the Brian Ferentz era as offensive coordinator and quarterback coach. While Tim Lester made some noticeable improvements Iowa is or was still hung with his recruitment choices at the QB position. I was optimistic that C...

I have no name, but Kirk was plucked out of NFL after being an assistant coach at Iowa under Fry. I believe Fry recommended Bob Stoops and Kirk around that time as would be head coaches. I do think Iowa will look for someone with a connection to the program as a previous player or coach. They...

Iowa has to pass to have a chance in the 2nd half. Same story year after year with Kirk. No imagination. Run a few wildcat plays.

I think Iowa goes 0 and 3. Right now Iowa is a collection of players and not a team. Earlier I expressed that there isn't any leadership from the point guards. What I mean by that is, it takes forever for the lineup/s to figure out what set to run and it is typically the point guard that...

Florida Roster Plan If I understand the new Roster Settlement Iowa will have to shed some members of the team starting with player 106. Of course those that used up eligibility will be leaving, so that will accomplish some of required reduction. I'm sure Iowa can count on some players going...

If you were dubious about this Iowa team you were right. Tonight was brutal to watch. Lack of rebounding, absolute nothing from 3 point range, too many turnovers, and lineups that didn't work well. You got to put the blame on Fran for not having a plan B. There is no leadership at the point...
