IllAnnoy at Iowa on Wednesday at 8 pm

I've been waiting for two years for this team to get an attitude that fits their potential. I don't expect to see it against Illinois but if they don't come out playing like they they want to control their own destiny I won't have a lot of hope for the remaining games. The last two games have been better but is that because the team played better or the quality of the opponent.
 
Illinois has the athletic back court that typically gives Iowa trouble. Hopefully, Iowa can handle it and come out on top.

Our back court needs to be a) Smart with the ball b) strong with the ball
& c) look for the open Front court guy to play Slamma Jamma on Illannoy

Go Hawkeyes
 
Might not be too electric at CHA with winter weather advisory for a good share of Iowa tomorrow and tomorrow night..........anywhere from 4"-7" in central Iowa and the totals have been moving upward.

Rutgers was a dog...I'll give you that...but no one has gone to Nebraska and hammered them like that. Nebraska is one of those teams that hangs with you with tenacious defense and physical play. That was a colossal beat down and a very encouraging win at a critical time.

As has been the case, what does Iowa do when they have a few games where they have shown their potential? They need follow through tonight...and to come out focused.

The one thing that's different this year, is that this team defends much much better than last year. If we get shots to fall (the big if with this team)...we can play with anyone. It's really encouraging to see Jok and Uthoff really looking to score every time they get the ball with a bit of space. I'm looking forward to see what they look like tonight. Illinois is physical...and will try to get in a scrum with you...can we play that way and get a win. Big test.
 
I'm guessing this must be the half *ssed game thread -

Sherman Dillard just Tweeted that he was impressed by the Fans at Carver Hawkeye tonight
& thanked the fans who came out and supported the Victorious HAWKEYES
 
I'm finding it difficult not to pull up those threads after the NW loss that had predictions of 2-4, 1-5 and even 0-6.
 
Northwestern is playing very well, at home, late in this BigTen season.

And the HAWKEYES are Trending Up, Up, Up.........
Gotta be able to make Free throws though..............
