Why aren't we double-teaming at all - do we just LET them wind the clock down on every possession, and hit the open jumper?

You can't give up 9 threes in a game and expect to win.

Brackins, forget it and come back fired up this weekend. Hopefully this is your Iowa game from last season and you turn it up from here on out.

and the route is officially on. 79-58. Still an outside shot we give up 100 points. Absolutely inexcusable. Brackins, Dendy, Gilstrap. Awful.

Nice shot Quez.


You usually seem more level headed on this board. A top 5 team is beating us by 18... I dont get the shock. We were 15-17 last year right? We lost to UNI, Northwestern, and Cal (without their best players) by a million.

He's been the most impressive on our team:yes:

I like Ham. His 10 and 6 or.. 8 and 7 type games he has do help. He's there to clean up the glass. Quietly he helps the team. Nothing fancy. I'm glad we have him for a couple more years.

We could use a few more 3s for ourselves!

I'd rather be 'negative' than apathetic.

Um, because they have 5 guys on the floor who can all shoot? We're giving up plenty of open looks trying not to. Doubling leaves someone open.
