Hawks enter the top 25

[InGoodCo]

Took way less time this season to get a target on our back. AP # 25 today.

With quite the gauntlet on deck for the team, let's hope we can hang in it for a few weeks.

I think we got the next couple games but that game against Duke will be tough.

 

[InGoodCo]

I think Clemson should be a win but the TCU/CAL - not sure - TCU is always tough with their coach.

I was looking at TCU's and CAL's schedule and saw TCU lost to Northwestern State 62-63 about a week ago. Also TCU's first game was against Arkansas-Pine Bluff and they barely won, 73-72. I haven't watched them play but maybe they aren't very good this year.

CAL is currently 0-4.

My hope is after this game, Iowa goes 5-1 in the next 6 games. With the only loss being Duke. I hope anyway.

After tonight the next 5 games goes as follows:

Clemson
Georgia Tech
Duke
Iowa St.
Wisconsin

Gtech, ISU and Wisconsin are at home. Is the worst case scenario they end up 3-3 out of this stretch?

On Saturday, Iowa will play either TCU or CAL as part of the Emerald Classic Tournament.

I think that 3 game stretch, Duke ISU and Wisc, will be very tough. I could see losing those three. Iowa should be able to take care of the other teams.

I'd give my left arm to beat Duke

 

[MelroseHawkins]

Duke has beaten a lot of patsies and lost to the only team with a pulse, #6 Kansas 64-69. I don't know if I would anoint them as King Shit right now, but.................................

Duke's resume so far.

Media wants a matchup with ranked teams when we play Duke

5-1, cause Duke sucks and refs are still gun shy of pissing off their coach. Worst case is 4-2 if we stumble and lose a winnable game

I think 3-3 would be a huge disappointment. They'll be favored in 5 of them pretty heavily. I think 4-2 should be the bare minimum expectation.
