*** Official Iowa vs #17 IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

[I-stateTheTruth]

That was the most Hok thing ever.


EVER.

FWIW didn't see a lot else out of their team and credit to Murray for sticking to it. He seemed to argue a foul call but otherwise I was impressed with his demeanor.

That was a nod to Georges doing it. They laughed about it together in a podcast. But Georges did it in a game ISU won, not a few minutes in.

There was a stretch when we were building our lead that Enaruna was cleaning the glass with authority. That was my favorite stretch of the game.

And I thought he was suspended or something…….

So the question becomes...is Iowa really any good? They've lost to everyone they've played with a pulse and ISU just housed them by 20 and held them almost 40 points below their season average.

I mean, we can tell ISU is pretty good. Just not sure about those guys. Seemed pretty soft.

They are alright, but I don't think they were any better than Creighton. I am really impressed with ISU, scrappy throughout the game. They never quit.

I'd guess they're NIT worthy.

Hopefully ISU is above that.

I pray the spirit of Saint Georges himself, please god let us not let up. Please intervene and help us squash the esophagus’ of these yellow chickens and not let up for a second. In Montes name I pray, amen.

Thanks Georges

It's early, but TJ and the Cyclones are the talk of of college basketball.

 

[hoosman]

Pretty sure TJ>Prohm

 

[TJSClone]

Amazing stat - the Cyclones had more OFFENSIVE rebounds than the Hoks had DEFENSIVE rebounds!! A far cry from the Prohm “1 Man shoot 4 Men retreat” mentality!!! Love this team!

The Big 12 is a beast, but since we're taking care of business in the non-conference that leaves us some room for error in conference and make the tournament.

Brockington is the hardest playing player we’ve had since Ejim, total grinder.

Hogue.

Yeah Georges did it when the game was well in hand and was a ******* All-American.

It's why Bobo's 'legend' is such a whimper.

 

[Gunnerclone]

Pretty sure TJ>Prohm

But that Ohio Valley Head Coaching experience!

Defend home court, beat a couple bottom feeders on the road, we've got a nice seed in the big dance. That looks pretty likely now, like basically a guarantee.

I think he's just getting started.

Probably knew it would be his only chance..

 

[AgronAlum]

This is absolutely amazing

This is incredible.

Haven't had this much fun since Lafester Rhoads decked the Hawks. December 19, 1987.

Christmas has come ten days earlier this year.

 

[Wally86]

ISU was plus 18 on rebounds tonight, plus 18. When was the last time that happened? Reminds me of the Larry E. years, its ugly to watch at times, but it's the key to winning championships.

Ugly is no rebounding, no ability to stay in front of the driver, and no ball movement leading to contested 1v1 shots. I can stand a few missed open shots

 

[inCyteful]

Any chance we wake up to news tomorrow that Barta has just given Fran a 5 year extension?

 

[clonedude]

So what will Iowa’s excuses be after this beat down?
