***OFFICIAL B1G TOURNEY DAY 2 THREAD***

[Section136]

Once again, Keith Stone will be in charge of starting the official Iowa game thread.

This is for all of Day 2's other B1G games.

 

[Section136]

Indiana all over Illinois at half, 35-21.

Illinois is shooting 26% from the field and has 8 turnovers and is getting hammered on the glass 20-7.

If Indiana didnt have 11 turnovers, they could be up 20.

Cody Zeller doing work today, 20 and 7 early in the second half

 

[Sirhouseman]

Really starting to not like him. I can't really put my finger on it. Just unlikable.

 

[CAARHawk]

UM's uni's not as bad as others. Still think they look like discount bin material.

Badgers not playing Ryan ball at all. He has lost this team the last few games.

 

[HawksMN]

You take back about 3 ultra lucky wins YOU DUB has, and they are average to below average at best. Lets not crown them kings of anything.

 

[ssckelley]

I know rooting for Wisconsin is painful but we need them to beat Michigan to help the RPI. There will be plenty of time to take a hot shower afterwards.

 

[WindsorHawk]

I'm all about Iowa right now so...Go Badgers!

 

[CAARHawk]

UM has no post play.

TH just limped off.

 

[jesterapparel]

Does Wisky really only have 6 point 13 minutes in? Boring.

 

[eveningnewsteam]

Maybe Wisconsin should try and go inside a little bit instead of jacking 3s every time down the floor. They aint fallin

 

[hawkfan33]

Michigan is falling apart, I see a very early exit from the NCAA's in their future

They have a lot guys that are made to score at the rim in transition. Half court comes down to Burke breaking a guy down. It's Burke and a bunch of wing types.

Guys, that Michigan game demonstrates that the teams that are left (save for Nebraska) ALL have a shot to win this thing. There is a lot of parity from the 1-6 seeds.

 

[WindsorHawk]

Suddenly Michigan isn't looking so scary next year with Burke gone. Right now nothing happens without him making it happen via his own scoring or passing and don't forget his ball handling.

I'm telling you, Iowa has a great chance for a very high B10 finish next year. All it will take is a slight offensive improvement.

I think Iowa could have beat them had they got the 3 seed.

It's called making shots, it's not rocket science. Defense will always keep Wisconsin in games.

Wisconsin scored 50+ in the 2nd half against a Top 10 team. Where are you at now Jalen Rose? Wisconsin fluke win over Michigan earlier in the year? I think not, led that game the majority of the way in Madison.

I agree but I also think we can beat Sparty. I feel good about this game. I can tell by the players comments that they are locked in for this one. If we play the kind of defense I think we're prepared to play Sparty will have a tough time scoring enough to beat us. We can out ugly them in this one if we aren't making shots.

LOL nothing like waiting until the outcome is decided, where was this confidence in the first half. And the win in Madison was a fluke.
