Actually according to advanced statistics our defense has been light years better than Iowa so far
It's always so interesting to me how our fans react to Iowa basketball.
It's clear that we have been the far better program since mad Fran stepped out on the court. They have improved but they have not been as consistently good as Iowa state. Mad Fran has beat Iowa state once. Mad Fran has had one NCAA finish better than us.
But yet every year, our own fans freak the hell out. Iowa is great defensively!! Cook is amazing! Bohanon is basically as good as monte was his freshman year (which is false).
Iowa lost to an ok team at home last night. Not a killer loss, but it's still a loss.
