****** Iowa - Ohio State Game Thread ******

Easy to see the difference in the quality of athletes on these teams. OSU is so much quicker. On offense Iowa has no idea what to do most of the time. When they are able to get shots most are hurried. On defense, OSU's quick hands get them easy baskets time and time again.

Ohio State's offense has looked horrible when they have to run it in a half court set. They are just creating some points off of turnovers and scrambles.
 
19 pts...Let's be honest tho...we are lucky we are not down 20. If we do not make some more shots in the second, and stop turning the ball over...this will get ugly...FAST
not seeing it that way at all. Iowa's defense and hustle will keep them in it if they can keep it up.


Hopefully the end of the half is no indication on the direction their defense is going. way to many second chances and easy shots.
 
Why no Gatens or McCabe down stretch? Need them on floor.

Brommer can't keep up either.

Need better looks and better post defense or this will be ugly.

Hawks are playing hard though, so maybe they can get it turned around.

With the pace Iowa is having to play offensively and defensively, they need some momentum with TOs and big shots...otherwise they'll start feeling the drag.
 
Iowa's subbing is going to look more like a hockey line change than what we're used to seeing . Fran knows Iowa needs to get quick scores to prevent Osu from getting set defensively and they need to be ALL over them defensively. Need someone who can step it up and hit the big shot.
 
The talent and athleticism disparity between these two teams is ridiculous.

Next year different story. Good thing Iowa will never play Sullinger along with probably 4 other Buckyes ever again.

McCabe sealed his fate with a bad reach in foul to get his 2nd. He wasn't coming back in.
 
If we just some of our shots, we're easily ahead in this game. Need to defend the post better and hit the shots. Git'r done Hawkeyes!!

Yes, but if Osu ran an offense like Iowa's this game might be a 20 pt difference. Can't believe they don't try to run more with that talent.
 
Lickliter ball?
seriosly get a life and a clue missed 13 shots in a row and some of those easy dunks came after a scramble for a loose ball with 3 Buckeyes around the basket and no Hawk within site
lest fave if they hit 4 of those 13 shots they go in down one
defense is outstanding Archie doing fine in there, the sad thing is he got 2 really ticky tac fouls called on him

Gee Iowa must be losing as Ryno is around. Where were you at the last couple of games?
