!*****Official 'I Don't Have The ESPN U Channel (IAvsPitt)' Game Thread*****!

I'm listening to the game via streaming. Some of the half time comments (un edited) from Gary and Bob....Wow! Running down our guards, naming specific players, again...wow.

I will say this...no f-ing way Pitt gonna stay as hot as they’ve been. Although, they are making shooting ad scoring look pretty easy right now

They most certainly will if Iowa can stop the penetration. Rather see Iowa get beat from 3 than giving them easy ass baskets to the rim!!!! Fran should stick with the Zone.

JBO needs to sit. We have a lot of guys that can shoot 3s and play defense.

 

[ForeverHawk]

Layups are a high % shot. If you can't stop that you stink at defense.

Yes I know, the defense sucks, all your excitement is gone. All that in just 13 minutes of Iowa basketball that you’ve seen tonight.

Wow. I heard this too. Let's just say Gary is not a fan of a certain player and both were questioning why Iowa can't get guards like Pitt has.

 

[Ian Pike Hammer]

Turned it on late, here's what I saw: lay-up, lay-up, 3, layup, lay-up. lay up 3, 3 lay-up...
WTF?
Looks EXACTLY like last year!!!

 

[teachercoach]

Go w/ what worked in earlier games - longer, lineup. JW / CMac / IM / Baer / TC / Garza / Kreiner - no JBo on floor.
get TC on the block and force them to choose.

 

[lightning1]

We'll see how serious Fran is about defense when they come out for the 2nd half.

 

[HawkPrdatr40]

Pitt has 10 LAYUPS!!!.. that’s insane!!

Not sure who you're talking about, but Moss is 0-3 shooting with 3 turnovers, no assists and 2 fouls. He did get a rebound, though. So he's got that going for him, which is nice.

What player?

 

[trj]

Pitt is young......we get it. how many times are they going to keep saying it.

 

[HawkPrdatr40]

We'll see how serious Fran is about defense when they come out for the 2nd half.

If he’s been watching the same game as all of us he would go ZONE!!!!

 

[hawkdrummer1]

not getting the live feed, but 10 layups? wow. back to last year?

We’ll see how serious the team is about defense when they come out for the 2nd half.

 

[seepig]

Play 1 type of defense and play it welll Fran. How many years do we have to continue to see this crap on the defensive end...again anyone that doesn't mentally get into playing D should sit their ass on the bench.

 

[lightning1]

I'm not watching the 2nd half. I doubt it looks much different though.

The 2nd half of this game will tell me whether or not we'll compete in the BIG. We'll know all we need to know real soon.

 

[judzeehawk]

Have seen this script for way to many years. They play different in the second half yippee. If they don't it was just fools gold.

 

[seepig]

JBo man/man D is so embarrassing it's actually sad. He can't stay in front of anyone....and I mean anyone.

 

[lightning1]

not getting the live feed, but 10 layups? wow. back to last year?

Yep. No rotations from the weak side. No intensity moving with the ball on the perimeter. Hands in their pockets.
