***OFFICIAL HAWKS STOMP THE MICHIGAN STATE SHART-ANS GAME THREAD***

[tksirius]

I'm starting to question how good the B1G is outside of Sparty and the Wolverines.

 

[AIRHAWK]

Bohannon 1-7 from 3

everytime down the floor, fire em up, nothing to lose

 

[trj]

This game represents what Iowa is....... a team that will be done the first weekend of the tournament

 

[ssckelley]

5 out of 23 from 3 point line

Izzo incessant crying is paying off.

Yeah, it's making his team play lights out. Fact: this is a really good MSU team.

That said, not sure how Winston never gets called for leading with his forearm when he dribbles forward.

 

[Northside Hawk]

24-2 run.

Come on.

Iowa's defense didn't show up for the second half. 40 points allowed in the first 12:57.

If MSU wins at Purdue Sunday they will run the conference. Don't try to tell me for a minute that they had nothing to do with this. Our issue, like is was in East Lansing, is that we started quick shooting when the defecit hit double digits and they weren't falling.

 

[STILLBUSTER]

The loss isn’t the problem, now. It’s the mental breakdown that will allow Sparty to beat Iowa the next few games.

Their melting down into typical discombobulation, which will only lead to bad losses.

Take your beat down nd move onto Minneapolis!!

Or maybe they are both Final 4 type capable teams

 

[mopkins]

This reminds me of that Maryland game a few years ago when a win woulda catapulted Iowa into the national spotlight and they lost

 

[revkev73]

And this is why Iowa basketball can’t sustain fan relevance. Whenever they have an opportunity to take a huge step forward, they fold. This team was smoke and mirrors. Haven’t beaten anyone above them in standings. This is just Iowa basketball I guess. Never get your hopes up with them. Stopped a long time ago for me. Like Alford era.

People that were enticed to "fill the place up" should get half their money back, only saw Iowa play in the first half.

Yah, they will be back.

 

[SidFarkas]

Key moment 2nd half up 8
And we couldn’t throw it in the ocean at that point....game turned and over.

 

[Ian Pike Hammer]

Fran giving up y is daily in?

 

[revkev73]

Guards disappeared tonight

Guards can dribble by people and put pressure on the opponent...surely you jest!

Of course they had something to do with it, but don't try to tell me Iowa played with the same defensive intensity that they brought in the first half.

 

[HawkeyeWalker]

Open shots arent falling, and they are hitting.

Darn it.

 

[revkev73]

Teams with more talent, win more often than not. Case in point, tonight.

 

[Robowe]

It's Riley Till time!

 

[HawkeyeWalker]

5 out of 23 from 3 point line

And there it is. That's killer.

 

[Healzya]

After cook missed 3 or 4 in a row and Mich st hit a couple 3s the intensity vanished.

Michigan State is a winning program, Iowa isn't.
