I'll bet Iowa has to go back decades to find its last 4 game winning streak. I hope we get to crush you again during the Big Ten Tournament.

Didn't they do that to win the Big Ten Tournament back with Reggie Evans?

Respect PSU on the road. They can be tricky at home and get a few teams every year.

Awesome! Make it 6 in a row and play into the top 100 so it's no longer a "bad loss".
Then prepare for a 25-point payback on March 7th. You might still make the NIT.

Sadly it hasn't happened since 2006...
edit: I am referring to a Big Ten 4 game win streak.

Fran has been the man. How many first times in a decade or more has he accomplished in 5 years? Yet we have super d-bag fans talking about firing him. Well how ya like us now?
If we get PSU which is a trap game, we could win 11 or 12. How many freaking years has it been since we won that many?

Yep...this is (probably/hopefully) the 5th year in a row that Fran has improved from the previous season.

Not decades. Just 9 years. We won 4 conference games in a row during the 2005-2006 season and we had a 5 game win streak at the end of the season that included three Big 10 tournament games.

LOL Really? NW smack? Really? LOL

Although Northwestern had great success in the early part of the 20th century, it has spent most of the time since World War II in the bottom half of the Big Ten. It was retro-picked as national champion in 1931 by the Helms Athletic Foundation and has won only one other conference title, in 1933. It has only finished above fourth place twice since World War II, and has not had a winning record in conference play since 1968. Since then, only the 2003-04 team has managed to finish with even a .500 conference record. It is the only long-standing member of a power conference to have never appeared in an NCAA tournament (despite hosting the first NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Championship game in 1939 and the 1956 NCAA Men's Final Four). Until 2008-09, it was one of the few long-standing members of Division I to have never had a 20-win season. It has appeared in the National Invitation Tournament seven times (1983, 1994, 1999, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012).

Easy tiger. You'll get your chance before the B1G tourney. Get your cryin towel ready for March 7th. If the Hawks have any sense of pride, you'll reach the same fate that Rutgers and Nebraska just did.

It should be 40 minutes of full court press by Iowa. They can't break a press.

LOL, what tournament are you going to again. Now I realize why you got 500 downvotes in record time.
