C'mon Hawk. Iowa's loss @ ISU was an epic meltdown due to bad play and bad coaching.
Better team(s) in both cases, did not win.

Iowa. Definitely. Got beat by a team on a mission.
UNI. Wow. That was more than a piddle down the leg. That was cow pizzing on a flat rock down the leg.
What I don't understand is that if Bohannon was Healthy enough to come back in the game in OT why wasn't he healthy enough to in-bound the ball st the end of regulation. Jacobsen planning for next game instead of triple zero-ing this one?

yeah I didn't get that either only thing I can figure is Bohannon shouldn't have been out there but saw his career slipping away from him. He could barely jog in OT

The way we did for sure. We have been in UNI's shoes SO many times over the yrs/decades. I told a buddy that loss by UNI was something I ONLY thought an IOWA team would be capable of pulling off.
I thought the same thing on Bohannon. All he had to do was stand. he didn't need to move and he would have been better than lohaus. Literally only took 1 inbounds pass with a foul and game was over.

In that respect, Iowa getting run out of the gym was a lot like Iowa getting run off the football field by Stanford. By half, I also was over both games.

Lot of A&M fans must have felt that way considering the exodus with a couple minutes left. Now, those folks were the real losers!
Gazette said biggest comeback in 1 minute in college basketball history! Washpun said A&M made some great plays. He needs to watch the tape. His last turnover was epic, especially by a senior. His shot selection (2-11) was terrible. He was money on FTs. Pure panic, trying to bounce ball off of opposition twice and failing, giving up 2 layups.
Insert inappropriate homophobe comment about option to be cyclone fan here.

Technically, Drake isn't a virgin. They did lose on a last second shot in the tournament in '05. In other words, they went all the way on Prom night.

I felt sick watching that UNI game just as a fan of the state of Iowa, I can't believe what hardcore UNI fans must have felt like. I would rather lose 100-0 than have to experience what UNI did.
Those poor fans are going to wake up on some random Tuesday in July a decade from now in a cold sweat with memories of that game crawling around their mind.

yes, the location was the reason they lost...

I was going to have to say I'd rather be competitive than get embarassed... But that is brutal. Yeah, think the blowout loss would be easier to swallow than THAT.

Just got back from vacation was able to watch Iowa in airport.All I can say is we played like crap.Your supposed to be playing your best ball at the end of season,we didn't.UNI at least improved like most teams do and played their best ball in the tournament.Gessell's comment that we didn't come out with the intensity we needed is ridiculous,if you can't get excited for playing on the biggest stage of the game you love then you're playing the wrong SPORT.

Iowa got beat & UNI lost the game. There is a difference. As an athlete it is far worse to lose a game than get beat. Yesterday, Villanova was the far better team. UNI threw the game away.
