Is the Big Ten hard up for officiating? Why is a guy who got done reffing at 9:45pm last night, working at noon today in Iowa City??

 

[Robowe]

Nice movement by Moss to get the jumper in the lane for 2.

JOE!!!!!!

 

[Robowe]

Great play to get Joe coming off the screen for his 4th three pointer of the game from top of the key.

JW has one of the smoothest shots I've seen. Good lord.

This game is chippy. Hawks playing great D, Iowa is gonna win a lot of games this season playing D like this.

 

[teachercoach]

This is going to be a sub 25pt half for a Big 10 opponent - great job players and coaches!

Joe has been shooting much better from 3 than I expected him coming in his freshman year. I knew he could knock down shots but didn't really think of him as a shooter. He is easily exceeding expectations the real expectations I had for him.

 

[Robowe]

Wow. Connor dribbles, dribbles, then finds Moss crosscourt for the 3 to end the half. Iowa up 39-24 at half.

 

[PCHawk]

Nice finish to the half. Tied our biggest lead of the game.

 

[Hillcrest1981]

Who's smoother, Moss or Joe?

 

[HaydenHawk56]

MOSS!!!!

and he puts that arc on it....it is a thing of beauty you think every shot is going in.

 

[HawkeyeWalker]

Every shot IL takes contested and difficult.

Very good half by Iowa. A few too many turnovers but that's gonna happen against that aggressive of defense when they are gonna let it be physical.

As long as its consistent that's fine.

 

[trj]

Geesh, Gus Johnson looks weird

 

[HawkeyeWalker]

This game shouldn't even be close right now.

It's not really.
