Baylor vs Iowa for all the marbles in NIT Gamethread On ESPN @ 8 PM

[mj4cy]

Why would it? One bad game doesn't change a thing. Iowa will still be a darkhorse B1G championship contender, and Iowa State will be lucky to make the NIT.

Can't wait to bring this post up next year.

For all the Hok fans who say "we return everyone think how good we will be next year"...

I can honestly say I wouldn't pick McCabe first in a pick up game at the Y...

Name one player under Fran that has gotten noticeably better while playing at Iowa during his 3 year stretch.

Marble occasionally? I honestly can't think of a single one that stands out. Player development at Iowa has been very, very poor which is why I fully expect to see them in another NIT slap fight next March.

Boy this is exactly as I expected. Baylor's forwards dominating the gangly white boys for Iowa which is opening up Pierre to do what he wants. It doesn't help that Iowa is shooting awful...

You are only embarrassing yourself with a post like this.

Please don't.

I expect tourney next year. Darkhorse when you're playing against MSU, OSU, UM, Wisconsin, Indiana, is... well, I have no words.

This game should shut most Iowa fans up till November.

Should but it won't even shut them up tonight.

Sometimes, even I don't need to add anything.

How is stuff like "gangly white boys" and "ginger" not considered racist?

Iowa is 70th best team

It's an interesting thing. I read the Iowa boards when something goes wrong for them, but I certainly don't post on their board when Iowa State is doing poorly.

Iowa wont win the Big 10, I guarantee it. You will be contending for a first round bye in the Big 10 tourney, thats about it. Also, I guarantee you ISU does no worse then the NIT next season, but they will be lucky to make the NCAA for the 3rd, yes 3rd, season in a row.

So, is it that a normally heartless Baylor team had more heart than Iowa, or was Fran outcoached by Scott Drew?

I thought Iowa could contend in this thing.

Is "ginger" a race? Someone alert the Census Bureau.

 

[Cy$]

down by 20, gameplan: have McCabe chuck a three.

Another Hawkeye flop and free throws ... its been their only offense this year.

I'm a "ginger" but I don't care. I think it's funny.

Obviously you are not familiar with the rules of political correctness. You are allowed to make fun of your own ethnicity. Now, if EyeoftheSTORM isn't Caucasian, then it's racist.

Yes.

Well, no.

Maybe?

Possibly. However, every team Baylor beat on their side of the bracket could be better than Iowa.
