Here's another gem

ncaa clearly didnt want iowa in 2nd round vs duke, duke is the money bags for tv. iowa posed them the biggest threat of the tourney to final four (check their boards, they were really worried about playing iowa's athletic bigs)

these refs just have to answer questions about this crazy pattern

I never will get why some people have a problem with other fan base expectation. Like last year isu football. Preseason picks of 8 wins, and mega meltdowns by mid season.

Of course iowa fans were taking pleasure in the deflation of the isu fan base so perhaps that's karma.

Pendulum coming the other way. Circle of life.

Watching the Hoks is a lot like Bill Murray in Groundhog Day, but their fans act more like Drew Berrymore in 50 First Dates.

To be fair, Iowa played a lot better than I thought they would. If the same team that showed up against Northwestern showed up tonight, then the game would have been over by halftime. I do give them some credit for pulling things back together and at least making a good game of it.

Iowa still can't get into the NCAA even with a free play in. They would have better off playing in the NIT. At least they would have gone further.
