Amazing how quick everyone forgets they were getting housed by a superiorly athletic team and the only reason it was ever even close is because Vols tried the "let's take the air out of the ball" trick that never works. It will be the same lineup next year, so the same issues that caused Iowa to lose to Rutgers and Nebraska and get destroyed by any team with athleticism will still be there.
My thinking is very simple, when they are winning, they are going to get the better instate recruits. The Foster kid from Osky, seems to be leaning towards ISU. Would hate to see him land up at Iowa because they went on a nice deep run in the tourney.
I root for two teams, ISU and whoever is playing Iowa. Does not matter who that team is, I hope Iowa crashes and burns in every sport. Screw this Iowa nice stuff, its either them or us. I choose ISU.
They get the better Iowa kids no matter what. It does not speak highly of the intelligence level of an Iowa high school education, both by the kids and their parents. But it is what it is.
I could care less if Iowa gets the Iowa kids. But I do want Iowa to lose all their games.
I agree with this. I'm not so sure they would have come back & beat Cinci if he hadn't gotten into foul trouble. Iowa looked WAY BETTER without him vs Cinci - that's why they were able to creep back within 5 before half - totally changed the game momentum.
Well yeah, I don't mind when Iowa loses. But I'll just smile then move on to whatever else I need to do. You encounter a lot of these tavernhoks that don't seem to have a sense of purpose beyond the fact that they're on the Hawk side of an instate rivalry most of the country doesn't care about.
Why do they have to wait until a timeout to review a 3? Why can’t an official on the sideline review it without stopping play?
Yeah, Tenn had outscored them 7-0, Mini mad comes in and they get two points.
Iowa kids seem to have more passion for the game than some of ours.
Is it just me or does Colby White look like the guy from My Name is Earl?
Yeah I know most fans would rather see a blowout and no effort, rather than a historical comeback and chance to win.
I’m sure it does help that a few of them grew up cheering for the Hawks. Also helps that they are really good at flailing about wildly. That looks like effort.
Washington’s purple is so much better than KState, TCU, and UNI. It’s not horrible to look at.
But in this case you saw both. How many Iowa fans LOVED ISU getting beat by OSU Friday night? Looking at their boards, I would say about 95%. Why should ISU fans be cheering Iowa when their fans are rooting against ISU? Make no sense at all to root for Iowa in anything.
