Preview, Prediction: No. 25 Cyclones Invade Iowa City

I think that 90ish -75ish scoring range is right on. If the Hawks can hold ISU to under 85, I think they'll have a chance in the last 2 minutes. Let's hope the FTs are going in tomorrow night!
 
When evaluating IA St8 they have way more experience than Iowa and with the injury to Cook it diminishes Iowa chances further. I do not expect a close game. I'm chalking this season up to player development. When I look at Iowa State this year they are a borderline top 25 team now. It is my opinion they are at their peak right now and look for them to fall back as the season progresses. Senior laden basketball teams tend to stay at the level they left off at after the previous season.

No they don't. A lot of senior laden basketball teams have made huge runs in the NCAA tournament. That being said, ISU doesn't have the posts to score in the paint to go on a run
 
Iowa 102
Clowns 100

Revenge in a perfect reversal they try to focus on Jok but Bohannon or Moss go off on them big time.
 
I don't think Iowa can hold them under 90.... Iowa needs Jok to play his best ball against everyone but especially ISU if they are to even have a shot. So much rides on that guys shoulders now. I don't think Pemsl will be able to have his way down low like he has the last couple games. But we'll see I love the confidence and aggressiveness he's had. Somebody needs to be getting rebounds. It's one thing to be giving up open looks it's another to not be rebounding once you do get a miss...
 
I politely request that you stop flaming me for making legitimate predictions. I could rub the Iowa Michigan football game in many of your faces but I choose not too. After all I did predict Iowa to win on a last second field goal. I expect the same respect in return.

Gonna be a high scoring game. Hope we finish on top.....

Of course, this score reminds me of the Lafester Rhodes Game where he scored 54 points against the Hawks in a 102-100 loss in OT.....

:cool:
 
Of course, that's why it's perfect revenge in a reversal. It will be something that can frustrate clown fans for generations to come.
 
The early revenge was good too though. 2 years later Iowa went into Lames and beat the clowns. Les Jepsen got the best of the clown's dirty center Phil Kunz. Dr. Tom nearly blew hit his top on the refs for letting Kunz rough him up, but Les was not to be deterred. I knew that he would go on to have a great season, and he did.
 
It's gonna get ugly, and to a f*ck ed up gang bangin team from L'ames, and to have them do it on our court....

ISU- 89
The good guys with crappy water- 79

(If I'm wrong, them I will go in exile to L'ames where the men aren't men and the women are men)
 
Folks. It's gonna be ugly. Let's be real. We r not very good. It will take an act of God to keep it within 20 and to keep Iowa state under 100.
 
We saw an upset in football, upsets are actually more possible in basketball than in football since fewer pieces have to come into place. A few players on one team catch fire and shoot better than they usually do. A few players on the other team have an off night and its happens. In this case I think that if Moss, Jok and Bohannan all have a great shooting day Iowa wins this one in a high scooring game.
