Too bad there have been no threads/posts on Iowa’s victory over Nebraska.

A few comments:

Watched the whole game. Carefully.
The D was solid. Held leading BT scorer to no impact. Thanks, Josh! And our zone!
Our O was a well oiled machine, both in transition and even better than usual in the half court!
Ladji and Brauns were impressive. If Fran could have gotten ahold of Brauns two years ago, it may have been a really big deal!
Ratio of assists to points was incredible. Back Cuts made by Josh, Payton, Brody, Thelwell, and our 5’s, wow!
Payton adjusted his game, went to the hoop and hit a couple of three’s as icing on the cake at the right time.
Payton rebounded well as usual.
Pryce kept us in the game with three’s and attacks to the rim.
Anybody who doesn’t think Brody is a potentially top shelf point guard needs to adjust their eye sight.
Drew was, well, Drew. Got to love that guy. Key threes and assists. Good D.
Take a look at our bench points! Wow. Beat up on Nebbie there for sure.

Since I am an old guy, one of the real highlights of the game was when a senior Husker fouled out after a fine performance. Iowa players showered him with hugs on his way to the bench as he reacted with tears.
Was all over the internet. Good press for the Hawks.

Sorry some of you missed a really good game. Next up in the BT are Ohio State and Illinois. Of course we will not be favored, but I firmly believe we are capable of beating either of them.

There you go.

Love your optimism, Huck!
The Huskers gotta be in shock.
 
A 16-15, soon to be 16-16, team should never be praised. What did we actually achieve today beating another mediocre team battling it out for the last team to make the B1G tournament?

There’s talent on this team. There is decent length in the 2-4 positions and regardless of losing whoever was our “center” mid-season we were still a team that never consistently played D.

This coaching staff doesn’t emphasize D, never has and never will. You can go back through every season under Fran and you will not find a single team that excelled at D. Ever.

They seem like good kids who play hard. They've stayed together. And they won't quit on their coach.

I think there is something admiral about the struggle in sports. This team has faced its struggles but keep coming. They've shown some resilience through their effort and attitude. They are still standing together after a disappointing season. I can get behind that.

Very politely, 12345, eat shit.
 
As a long time hawkeye fan and leave in nebraska it was a great win.
Nice try Fred but our team was just better TODAY. Momentum for INDY.
LETS GO HAWKS ...

If we play this hard against Ohio State we can beat them
