Re: Official Iowa vs. ISU Game Thread

I can't keep doing this. Seriously. ******* close a goddamn game.

Seriously I'm so fricking ****** right now. What the **** is this ****in panic mode we get into late against ranked teams. Enough with this ***** **** we need to get tough.
 
Re: chokeyes

Sadly, I have to agree. Same crap, different season. This year's team may be a good team, but what good is it if you can't seal the deal against other good teams? Just like last year - build a double digit lead against a good team, blow it and lose late. Two ranked opponents this year, same thing: Two blown games.

Maybe I'm overreacting to "just one game" (yeah, I know that will be the response), but unfortunately it looks like the same trend is continuing into this season. Iowa is good enough, but it just can't finish games. Simple as that.
 
Re: chokeyes

You must have not watched the games last year when we couldn't finish them.

A pattern that happens over and over to me is coaching.

Better hope some stud baller picks Iowa for his college choice. We just not back.
 
Re: Official Iowa vs. ISU Game Thread

Man who knew free throws were so difficult. I echo the comments about Woodbury. How can he be so uncoordinated?

Nothing is more unacceptable to me. You play the whole game with elite athletes in your face trying to stop you from scoring. Then you get a chance to shoot from 15 feet with nobody guarding you? If you can't make that shot you are mentally weak.
 
Re: Worst officiated game I've ever seen

The fouls were crazy. I'm amazed at that ISU advantage. But they won.

Still, on a neutral court, that team doesn't scare me in the slightest.

I'd love to face them again.
 
Well, Iowa ****** that away

Just a terrible final minute of baseball out of Iowa. To fight hard like and and crap the bed really is maddening. The refs sucked for most of the game but Iowa lost this one on their own.

Tough pill to swallow.

This guy speaks the truth. Until proven otherwise you can't argue it
 
Re: Worst officiated game I've ever seen

Gotta play through it, and the Hawks did. They hit their FT, and we win that game.
 
Re: Worst officiated game I've ever seen

No doubt in my mind we have the better team. I would love to play this clown team on a neutral court. But i will say that the Hilton crowd is one of the BEST in college BB. They really support their team and that is one hell of a snakepit to win in. Their team is good and there is no shame in losing to them. I am disapointed that we tried to run the clock with over 4 minutes in the game instead of attacking and finding White. He disapeared(not his fault) .And we missed critical FTs down the end.

Iowa had a 5 point lead with just over a minute to go. Just another blown game, simple as that. I'm tired of moral victories.
