*** IOWA AT PURDUE GAME THREAD ***

[HawkForce]

At the end of the day Iowa has to fight and contest every board....and we didn't.

why was Bryce flying that way anyhow? god we need better talent

A play like that has absolutely nothing to do with talent.

 

[dekhawks]

How is that foul any different then the cartwright one in the first half?

Exactly. Refs are so inconsistent it is maddening.

 

[herbyhawk]

how did iowa get all the calls they were outshot at the ft line 16-12 and there were only 2 fouls called on Purdue in the last 12:15 of the half
my god if thats getting all the calls?

why was Bryce flying that way anyhow? god we need better talent

Umm . . . because the deflection and recovery out front necessitated that everybody leave their man. Talent was not a problem on THAT play.

 

[HawkForce]

How is Motel 6 the official lodging partner of the BIG?!?!??!?!

 

[tksirius]

surprised. I honestly thought they were going to let them hack the shiit out of us the rest of the game.

 

[rjhindm]

fts killing us

 

[hawkeyescott]

Worry about yourself. No one is "blaming" the officials, but rather pointing out a terrible call.

Why wasn't it being pointed out in the 15 minutes of the game? I'm not saying it isn't horrible officiating but it is going both ways.

 

[HawkForce]

and we can't make throws

 

[Lionhawk]

Refs have been questionable both ways. Rebounding, free throw shooting and dribble drives will be the reasons if the Hawks don't pull this off.

 

[SheagleHawk]

How many loose balls has purdue gotten this second half? Everything going their way.

 

[herkyattack]

THAT is a terrible call. IOWA BALL!!!!!

 

[HawkForce]

WHAT WHY CANT WE REBOUND

 

[Lionhawk]

REBOUND!!!

 

[Herkyalert]

The refs have sucked both ways tonight. Officiating as a whole needs to be looked at all over college basketball.

Iowa is just terrible tonight getting offensive rebounds.

 

[tksirius]

refs aren't helping Purdue, they are just horrible refs. Nothing new in the BIG though.

 

[HawkForce]

We are making the 10th best rebounding team in the conference look like the freakin miami Heat out there....BULL hockey

 

[herbyhawk]

looks alot like the 1st time they played, Iowa gets close but can't get over the hump

 

[Tmoney12]

where the frick did our rebounding go?
