As Iowa found out against Northwestern in a prior Big Ten Tournament. Let's hope Michigan is flat. And Iowa gets into the 90s today.... hopefully that offensive production can continue.
Hey if Michigan starts off slow... Feels the pressure of being a favorite.... Iowa starts off hot... You just never know...
Crazier things have happened in March. That's all I know. Would I bet the farm on it? Ummm no. But they've shown that for stretches of time they can be a heck of a tough team to guard. I think some of us forget how tough of a team we are to match up with sometimes. If they didn't turn it over so many dang times the first half we should have blown them out. Iowa could lose by 20, Win by 10 or anything inbetween that and I can't say I'd be surprisedWhat's funny is if "try hard on defense and play average and offense" Iowa shows up, Michigan is probably only a 5 or 6 point favorite. The problem is, that team has probably only showed up 6 or 7 times all year. If they show up tomorrow, winning wouldn't even be a huge deal.
Any day you can F the N it’s a good day!Would be pretty cool if Iowa somehow pulled off the upset vs Michigan and then played Nebraska on Friday with a shot at the semi finals. If Nebraska lost to us they'd for sure be out of the ncaa tournament I believe
I really enjoy ruining things for Nebraska fans
That’s a bizarre vision I’m currently having difficulty un-seeing.Maybe Michigan's plane will skid off the runway again and they'll have to play in jock straps and hard sole shoes

is it though? Not saying your wrong, just that, I think that there's something to saying "beating a team multiple times in a row is tough". The other team becomes more familiar with strategy, the players, how they're guarded. The familiarity has to go into that saying. It really depends on which team is shooting great IMO. My bet would be on Michigan doing that ...but if Moss and Jordan come out and just shoot lights out, who knows?The "hard to beat a team 3 times in a season" thing is among the top 10 specious sports cliches.
It's hard to beat an EVENLY MATCHED team 3 times..but that's simple odds. Beating a lesser team, not so much.
