Illinois is gassed, this is where playing 9-10 deep will pay big dividends next year

I really think Iowa could help change the pace of the Big Ten.

Gatens deserves to win this game

 

[hawks365]

I can't wait until next year when the back ups can keep the tempo going and just completely take the legs out of teams like Illinois. Love the way the Hawks are playing. Need to sink the Free Throws down the stretch!

Iowa needs to make FT's, game has been pretty free from the ref's interferring by calling ticky tack fouls

60-56 3:13 to go

mafia at work here!

When the shot clock winds down the Hawks NEED to get it to Gatens or Oglesby. Cartwright has struggled with this and ends up getting McCabe a 26 foot jumper.

 

[herbyhawk]

11 offensive boards for Iowa been awhile since that has happened for Iowa to get more OR's than the opponent

 

[bighawkeyedaddy]

Got to have a better offensive possession than that last one, McCabe has shot way too many threes today, although he had to throw that one up from 30 feet with the shot clock running down.

 

[bcl20]

Illinois has 0 free throws.

 

[tksirius]

White gassed right there.

 

[woodyk1]

Iowa up 60-56 with 2:54 to go

 

[HawkeyeHypnosis]

McCabe had enough time to dribble a step or two closer to the line.

 

[bighawkeyedaddy]

Hoping for a good set in bound play here.

 

[goiahawks]

This is going to come down to the wire. I'm nervous

 

[atomicblue224]

[HawkeyeHypnosis]

Gotta play big D
