HAWKS CONTINUE TO BLOOM IN BLOOMINGTON GAME THREAD

[Northside Hawk]

Non-contact ankle injury in the first half. Could not put weight on it.

I thought we used up our quota of ankle injuries last year. Cook, Garza both missed games with ankle injuries.

 

[SpiderRico]

Iowa has all tough games left which games do we win?

I think we can win 2 of 3 at home and lose the rest of the road games. 10-10 which probably puts us at an 8 seed in NCAAs, playing Baylor in 2nd round and getting smoked by 30. Same as it ever was,

 

[hawkeyewx]

If Iowa could simply play halfway-shitty defense on the road, they could win one or two of these. Giving up 50 point halves just won't work.

 

[STILLBUSTER]

Crazy that Indiana did something with no call, while Iowa does that but gets called. Feel like that happened 80% of the game

You’re surprised by this from Big14 refs? Worst in the game. Every 4-minute block is a new frickin tale of how they jack-up the game.

I don't understand why Troussaint has stopped driving to the basket. He isn't even testing his defender with head and ball fakes, is his job to just pass it around the perimeter. Congrats Iowa on turning the fastest player into a pedestrian passer.

If CJ is done. I think Iowa beats Purdue at home and has a fighting chance against OSU. Everything else would be an L and some will get really ugly.

 

[Northside Hawk]

Damn! This game approached the length of a typical major league baseball game. It felt like it wouldn't end.

Not the most fun game to watch this season

Better than watching the game at Purdue

Similar but not quite the same

It is just me or do the B1G announcers and talking heads

Seem to be enjoying the Iowa problems

I'm pretty pissed right now. I hope I'm wrong, but dont see many wins left, not enough talent.

Garza went for 40+, and we lost by 12.

Shite.

Things are a bit gloomy

The forecast is not good

 

[phdsvp]

We're just not allowed to have nice things.

 

[dahlhawk]

Wow, reporters asking Tough questions to Indiana players, after a win! Never happen at Iowa.

 

[dahlhawk]

Minny had a bye week to prepare, thought they should have won the first game. Could be very ugly, not hopeful. I'm planning something to do in case it's unwatchable.

But if someone needed their eyes raked they’d get their eyes raked.

Gesell was 5’3” but he could start all the shit he wanted because Stretch had his back.

The underachiever twins.

I saw that. It was actually a little over the top imo. Fine to ask a coach but seemed kinda dick-ish the way he asked the player, especially given he's pretty much tge reason your team won.

It was a brutal question, something you ask a paid player!

[revkev73]

A team thin on talent and thin on players got thinner.

Teams will be able to forecheck Iowa to exhaustion.

Iowa has overachieved, but things seem to sift out over 30-35 games.

We can watch Garza work like a mule, become an all-American, and prepare for the NBA draft.

He is working on his midrange jump shot
