Clown Blood Flowing Freely Tonite Game Thread









The refs didn't cost Iowa this game. In fact, by letting both teams play through obvious fouls in the 1st half that actually favored Iowa because ISU is a quicker team that drives more to the basket. In the 2nd half the refs called a much tighter game, which favored ISU -- but only because ISU repeatedly got past Iowa defenders on drives. Iowa players couldn't drive past ISU players in the 2nd half -- thus the foul disparity.

ISU is simply a more talented team this season, and Jefferson was the best player on the court tonight, by far. Considering those facts, Iowa played a helluva game on the road vs a Top 10 rival. Just came up a little short.
 


McCollum knows ball. Super impressed by Iowa. So many times in the first half Iowa was able to scheme experienced players into traps. Got Iowa State playing the Hawkeyes game. A lot to look forward to with this group and this staff.
 


Single digit loss? Weak sauce Big Ten? Honestly, could be a really good season.
^^^This big time^^^
Just checked in on the final score. Really pleased that it was as close as it was. We bear these bitch at home because we all know how ISU always gets the majority of the calls at home.

The wife wanted to go watch a professional presentation of “Cirque du Soleil” down town Salt Lake City. That wasn’t cheap.

I recorded the game and will watch tomorrow or the next day.
