Is this the best shot Iowa has had at the NC since 1985? I was not really old enough to remember that team, but this team coming up looks pretty tough. You never want to say what if, but what if Bulaga, Dace and Amari had come back? Oh my, what a dominating line up that looks like. That being said, I believe that the Hawks have enough fire power and most of all stopping power on defense to run the table. The most important trait for this team is that most of these guys have been through the jungle that is the schedule this past year and know just what it takes to win each game. If they can put it together and get to that 1 game situation, anything can happen. Not saying it will, just saying they have a chance that passes the laugh test and when was the last time anyone could say that?
In 2005 when Texas played USC for the title, i remember looking at the athletes on those teams and thinking that Iowa did not even touch those guys. I don't see that gap anymore. Not saying it will happen, but I do believe this team is in the conversation.
