Iowa vs Villanova Championship Game Thread

[pacoyal]

If we can keep the intensity up and we don't get over whistled like we did, we should win

1st unit playing like arse... marble needs to stop forcing it.

2nd unit was sweet.

 

[spliff45]

Ugh...Iowa's made some poor decisions coming down the stretch

 

[Malachiman]

Good God. Shut up.

Yes internet guy..

Well, Iowa didn't play well, and are still up 9

They very played well for about 12-14 mins

 

[bjreed16]

i felt like we were about to completly break it open, or lose the lead at any point that half

 

[lightning1]

Anyone know what the foul count is?

 

[TChawk]

9pt lead should have been 15+...pathetic end to half.

 

[BigD]

42-33 halftime Iowa lead. Not good to lose that 15 point lead. Iowa's conditioning and depth hopefully should be enough to get them through to the end of this game.

Villanova hit some tough shots at the end too. As long as they keep forcing them to take tough shots Iowa will be fine.

 

[Biggusblockus]

Gessell is the man. Great first half. Keep running hard in the second half boyz, wear em out and foul em out!

 

[Bigtenchamp]

game is far from over... especially if the 1st unit doesn't play better.

 

[bcl20]

Woodbury is our second leading scorer.

 

[mattmets]

Anyone know what the foul count is?

Marble-McCabe-Gesell-Uthoff with 2 each, Basabe-White-Woodbury 1 each. 11 total.

Marble is really starting to **** me off with his decision making.. this isn't resume building time for the draft.

Anyone know what the foul count is?

11 for Iowa. 9 for Nova. Although Clowns think refs are favoring Iowa heavily.

 

[biasedHAWKEYE]

Iowa played weak down the stretch. Still up 9. Not bad.

Those idiots realize that playing a top 15 Iowa team is a good thing for them don't they?

 

[ibahawkeye]

I think were in for a close finish. Nova was careless with the ball for a stretch that allowed for a good Iowa run.

Take that away and I think it's two fairly evenly matched teams.

 

[Stanzi]

Since when did Marble become a terrible free throw shooter?? He also needs to take better shots from the field. He forced some ugly shots in the first half.

a few understand it.
