Oh don't worry about ISU, we're there and yes the team remembers last year. We'll make amends for the Iowa game. Sadly, your team has a few more years to climb out of the D1 cellar.

You know, I've said this before, but while being positive about ISU bball is certainly understandable, remember... ISU hasn't had a winning season in 4 years, and at one point was losing by 30 points to Iowa last year.

And it's not like ISU is without embarrassing losses... SDSU?

I'd much rather both teams in the state return to the solid programs they were in the 90s. Basketball was SO much more fun when both teams had something to play for than it is now. Getting Hilton and Carver back to what they once were is nothing but great news for the state, and basketball fans in general.

I also call BS on Iowa being up by 30 last year. It was 34-32 at the half, and the final score was a 16 point margin.

I know it wasn't a game but I don't remember it being that kind of margin...correct me if I'm wrong.

Anyone think Brackins will have more than 6 pts. against Iowa this year?

Wow, what a horrible game he had; glad he got it out of the way against Chicago St. this year, and glad we have people around him to pick up the slack this year.

I don't get your screen name and picture. Are you supposed to be an iowa fan and an ISU fan? Just asking because you might be the biggest Hawkeye homer on this board...

Yes, I'm a fan of both. Please call me out if you ever see me post a negative word about ISU.

SI is one of the good guys around here, and I think has inched closer and closer over to the ISU side of things as time goes by. He's still a Hawk fan, but rational.

Who cares how the Hawkeyes do.. Personally we can loose to them every year and as long as we finish with a 20 plus win season and a run in the NCAA tourney that game doesnt mean anything

Is three fouls really foul trouble?

He just had one of those frustrating nights.
You are correct, he only had 1 in the 1st half....? Did not pick up #2 til 9 minutes left in game... Iowa played a 3 gurad line-up alot,but CB did have a off night....?:confused:

Yes, Tate pushed him around all night. Also, CB has shown that if he misses his first couple of shots, he can have a rough night. Same thing happened against Chicago State...it just seems to get in his head and snowball.

Good start for CB=great start for ISU

why is Iowa playing on ESPNU and not on the big 10 network? leads me to my next question, why is our game only on mediacom but a garbage Iowa team playing daquesne (or something like that) is on a national network.

I think it's because the games are part of the CBE tournament. I really don't get their brackets. They have Iowa in the Championship round, when they might not have won a game leading up to playing Texas.
