Cincinnati

Iowa will win this one by about 10. 74-64

 

[Robowe]

My guess is iowa is a 7.5 dog at open. Wouldn't be surprised if it's worse.

 

[lightning1]

If we pull our heads out and beat Cincy we could be looking at a revenge game against Tennessee to pay them back for that play in game.

Tennessee would cook this Iowa team. That would be an ugly game.

It's either gonna be this or lose by 18.

 

[mopkins]

Wow....

 

[ohhawk]

They might have Skyline Chili but we've got Maid Rite. Conclusion ...........Iowa by 7.

 

[DDThompson]

Scratching head? Strongest conference, toughest conference, most talented conference.

Whar #1 Seed????

Yeah. Lotta ACC SEC love.

 

[Caddy]

Their best FT shooter is 77.6. They have 2 players over 40% from 3. Everyone else is 30.6 or worse.

Their guards will be shooting layups all day.

 

[TheIowaHawkGuy]

Iowa got what it deserved thanks to their once again late season collapse. Brutal draw against a great defensive and physical team. And on their home court basically.

I’ll take Cincy 75-55. None and done for the Hawkeyes.

 

[mopkins]

That line doesn't make sense at all imo. The higher seed, basically at home?

 

[TheIowaHawkGuy]

Would ha


LMAO!!!!!! These bracket people must hate Iowa for some sick twisted reason.

Likely punishing them because of our head coach and the embarrassment he is. They also know there is a common late season collapse theme with them. Doesn’t deserve rewarding.

 

[ssckelley]

We are lucky to be in the damn tourney with the pathetic schedule and lack of legit wins. Fade down stretch

You haven’t found a new team yet?

 

[Hawk90]

Two 2 seeds and a 3 seed, the Big 10 got some respect. Iowa not so much. Fire Fran.

 

[proudhawkfan21]

Or just enjoy that the Hawks are in the tourney.....
Did you expect to win it all? Upset a team or two and make it memorable...vs beating a Dayton or xyz state? We weren't advancing to the sweet 16 on cruise control.....i mean, we all watched the last few games of the season....enjoy that we were invited to the dance and the upcoming week. Would be fun rooting for the Hawks to pull off a major upset on Sunday. We are capable.

 

[koralakers]

Cincy is underseeded. I think Iowa is too

 

[proudhawkfan21]

The second I heard the guy say that, I knew our name was coming.

Funny, i was already laughing when I heard our name. You KNEW it was coming...karma

 

[TheIowaHawkGuy]

The last time Iowa faced Cincinnati was in the NCAA Tournament as a 10 seed. That was the beginning of the end for Alford as well. History repeating itself?

Point taken. When we are red hot from 3, we can beat anyone. When not, we can lose to anyone. Praying for one hot game to start tourney.

I'm happy for young Hawkeye fans. Kids with a dream. We didnt have a basketball hoop unless i hiked a few blocks to the playground. So I'd be setting up metal garbage cans on either end of the yard out in the snow or thawing spring hitting the game winning shot against whoever our draw was...

Nothing better than March Madness and being a young kid and your team is in!

I'd take a round 2 game this year!
