I love how some are insinuating that the Iowa players and Fran did not care enough or were not mad enough, or otherwise just weren't in the right head space in losing to Nebbie and then OSU. Can we also give some credit to the two opponents, who both played good games and at the end of both games a few shots/breaks went against Iowa and we lost. When you are not an overwhelmingly talented team, which Iowa is not, and you rely heavily on perimeter shooting, you are going to lose some games and it has nothing to do with your emotional make-up before the game. And, this is the same team that went into Bloomington and beat a ranked Indiana team like a red headed step-child two weeks ago. Was Indiana not emotional enough that day? Come on. Its sports, and someone is gonna lose. Let's not pretend the players and coaches are not fully motivated to win. That's dumb. Really dumb.
