Story of the game, the maligned Josh Oglesby......

 

[docholihawk]

It may have been Woody's best game. Only one personal foul.

Gotta be the player of the game...awesome game

That's great for us but it doesn't dismiss his past poor performances, so that posters can say ridiculous things like "people who have questioned JO need to shut up". That's just dumb and is easily to refute if anyone cared to go and dredge up old stats. I'd rather compliment his current play. Wouldn't you?

WHAT?

 

[Stanzi]

Great game from Oglesby and very nice second half from the Hawks. Marble needs to shoot about 200 free throws a night going forward.

For the radio broadcast, Gabe O is the player of the game. He had a great game as well. JO would have been a great choice as well.

Really impressed with Iowa's 2nd half play. Almost everybody came up big at one time or another. Take a bow Hawkeyes!!!

 

[HawkeyeShane]

Great game by OGLES3...and if we need to dredge up old stats we're living in last year. He seems to have his stroke this season, thus far anyway.

In Heaven there is no beer...

Great game Hawks! Outscored them by what? 31? 33? From the end of the first half til the end of the game?

 

[jacknicholson]

Man did Iowa step up in the 2nd half or what. Congrats Iowa. I can now fully expect to see Iowa ranked ahead of ISU when the rankings come out.

We crack the TOP TEN, Doc.....

The child in me has to laugh when the commentator talked about McCabe being "a good ball handler". Just an observation.

 

[jacknicholson]

That was a dominating half.

Rather a humiliation for the Gophers

 

[22hawkeyes]

I've been saying it on here all week............ TOP TEN-BOOK IT

I've been saying it on here all week............ TOP TEN-BOOK IT

**** that. We're a top-5 team.

 

[22hawkeyes]

I've been saying it on here all week............ TOP TEN-BOOK IT

you still think we won't crack the top 10 TM3308?

 

[jacknicholson]

We are a pretty good team.

The Master of Understatement.....

Whitey making those running one handed jump/layups remind me of Larry Bird!

I do agree, got in a lot of trouble comparing his style to that of Larry Bird's in college. I saw him three times at Vets in DM against Drake.....

 

[jacknicholson]

Man, my heart is gonna crash.

Better than a Burst, T......

 

[jacknicholson]

Seriously, we thought Oglesby was an effective decoy last year, when he wasn't hitting the broad side of a barn.


He's going to put the fear of God into defenses the rest of the way this year.

Our opponents will suffer the Wrath of God

However, we are not attacking the rim.......that is the point.

Mel tried it and slammed it back in and got called for a foul.....

But otherwise, you are correct....
