***Official Iowa @ O$U game thread****

I would play Cook way more minutes at the 5 where he is a tougher matchup.

Cook would foul out before halftime if you let him.

I just saw that Purdue lost a heart breaker to MSU

Was a good game to watch

Bridges came though in the clutch again

Wonder why we didn't use the Valvano strategy about free throws when you are behind at the close of the game

Play the %, know who is the worst free throw shooter on the floor for the opponent and foul the MFer.....

Not one of the top two free throw shooters in the BIg Ten

 

[CJHawkeye]

Tough watching. knowing there is zero chance of victory and terrible blowout likely.

Yet here I am. It's a sickness.

Give it time, someone who turned the game off or never turned it on will say you're not a fan for being negative. Nice cherry on top.

I don't see this team being meaningfully better next year. Maybe we win 4-5 in conference and that's not good enough.

If that happens. Bye Fran. Don't care the cost. They better be noticeably better.

My eyes tell me you're correct tho.

That’s the million dollar question. What has to take place for this team to get markedly better between now and November?

 

[smitharooney]

Another lazy run out by Cook

 

[CJHawkeye]

Fucking Andrew Dakich schooling us. Can we get a vet to put this team down?

 

[Motigerhawk]

My eyes tell me you're correct tho.

We dont have half the athletes the elite teams do.
We dont play defense.

Yeah, I dont see a ton of improvement next year.

 

[Motigerhawk]

We play like a bad AAU team that some Dad threw together so his son could play in the Summer.

 

[NikeHawk21]

Franimal turning to Ellingson. Sweet

I'd be curious how many people have come over to the dark side as this season wears on. Meaning, used to think we'd be improved next year and now don't. And like I said, I mean meaningfully better.

 

[thedukeofearl]

I just attempt to find consolation in the fact that I never expected to win this one anyway

This was a automatic loss, in my mind, before the season started

Still frustrating to watch, but am complacent. really doesn't matter

Would like to see a win or at least a solid effort

But, it is what it is

And it ain't pretty

When does next season start

 

[trj]

I keep forgetting the B1G tournament is 2 weeks away.

 

[thedukeofearl]

Franimal turning to Ellingson. Sweet

Perhaps a turning point

 

[CJHawkeye]

The announcers literally have run out of made up positive bullshit to say about Iowa.

 

[smitharooney]

Dom Uhl sighting Fran has thrown in the towel

 

[thedukeofearl]

They are even guarding Brady close on the perimeter

And nobody else is open

A little motion would be nice to see sometimes, no matter what the score

For what it is worth

 

[smitharooney]

Start Nunge the rest of the season and let him get ready for next year

 

[CJHawkeye]

Bohannon jacking up YMCA threes.

 

[thedukeofearl]

Like to see Nunge getting game experience and would like to see Kriener on the floor for the same reason
