Once White and Marble come alive to start the 2nd, we'll pull away fast

Fran's gonna rip some arse about the rebounding problem, at half time. It's simple box-out defense and we aren't doing it.

 

[1hawkeye1]

Too many turnovers, poor shot selection, and missed free throws. White hasn't even attempted a shot.

Giving up too many offensive rebounds as well

This is what was said at Minn half before we beat them bad

 

[tksirius]

Don't worry, Whitey & Oges will get it going 2nd half. Mich can't get these lucky bounces all game.

 

[spliff45]

Michigan superior on the perimeter and Iowa's superior in the front court. It'll be interesting how this plays out

They should eliminate the free throw because it is so automatic. Or maybe if you make a layup its worth half a point?

Michigan has 7 offensive rebounds; Iowa has 6.

Difference is rebounding, one-sided refs, some fluke put-back Michigan baskets, and here you go again that type of player that always seems to make unreal 3s against us. In this case Stauskas.

Si, bien bien

Jim Jackson, "Roy Devyn Marble is multi-versatile" huh??

 

[TChawk]

White 1pt, Marble 4pts, if both end up with less than 15 Iowa has ZERO chance of winning this, and the way they are playing in the first they don't have much shot at winning reguardless...

 

[biasedHAWKEYE]

Marble and White with 5 combined points at the half. We need big second halves from both of them.

Same happened on Sunday and we won by 20. If we score less points than mich we have 0 chance to win

 

[1hawkeye1]

Fran is the master of half-time adjustments. Iowa is winning this GD game!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[22hawkeyes]

The good thing is that we are once again in it with our best players doing nothing. Let's hope marble and white wake up in the second half like last week. Hope this doesn't become a habit.

sure they can. Basabe is going to set a career high tonight. They have no answer for him down low

 

[jacknicholson]

Hawks need to chill and come out swinging.

You talking to me.....

 

[lightning1]

Michigan has 7 offensive rebounds; Iowa has 6.

Michigan got 4 or 5 of those offensive rebounds too easy. We didn't box out on defense. Michigan players knife in and grab a rebound.
Basabe accounted for 2 offensive rebounds on put backs from his own point blank miss and Uthoff got 1 on a put back of his own miss - point blank. The numbers don't always tell the real story.
