Up till Saturday, Hawks were 8-0 in weekend afternoon games. That streak is now broken. Hope the "no back to back loss" and "no loss to non-top 25 teams" streaks carry more cosmic weight and Hawks can right the ship.
I'm losing confidence and think the team is what it is. As posted earlier this week, the Hawks are "sideways."
-- From F-Mac down, they are unable to tune out criticisms and distractions and emotional overreactions / mental breakdowns get the best of them.
-- At this time of the season, depth is supposed to be a strength. Unfortunately, it's diluted the collective potential of the team and is just as likely to be a liability when performance is discounted and quantity is misperceived as quality. Last I checked, you don't get spotted any points because your a hard-working senior, with experience, and you give a gritty effort. Intangibles make clever cliches and cute conversation but that aren't worth a **** if they don't result in baskets.
-- AW has been m.i.a. since January.
They are going to lose at Minny. It's 50/50 if they lose at Indy. They will beat Purdue, lose at MSU and sweep Illannoy.
A weak finish to a promising regular season. At this point, Nebraska has a better chance at finishing 5th than Iowa.
Here's to regrouping for the tournaments.
