Hope not. Looks like buckley will be getting some playing time.

I hate to say it and it's not classy, but yeah, I think someone needs to send that fat Pitman a bit extra next time they battle down low.

True, it might not be classy, but our guys have to show Texas that we're not backing down.

They've decided to play extremely tough, physical basketball... and the refs are allowing it. We have to show we're here to win and play physical as well. Knock someone to the floor. It sends a message that we're not backing down.

Soooooo you think lady (Hilton) Magic will show up tonight??? With this crowd... It might be possible.

Way to rock so far students. Very proud

 

[HandSanitizer]

Wouldn't it be wierd if GMAC had no wins aginst Top 25 teams at ISU and then knocks of the #1 in the country? I think that would really help this team come together
One thing I am disappointed in is that why does it take us playing at home against Texas to go hard to the board. We are 13-2 right now if we have half this effort againt UNI and Northwestern.

How the refs miss the foul on Boozer beats me ... oh wait we are playing Texas.

Actually he hurt himself before anyone even touched him....correctly called by the refs.

I think that this is only the second time all season that Texas has been behind at the half. The first against Pitt. ISU played a bigtime half. We are 20 minutes away from making some history and some serious HILTON MAGIC. All that with Texas shooting the lights out for awhile.

How does Ed Hightower still have a job? I don't know anyone from any school that thinks he is a good ref.

Check this out

Most Fouls Called - 2009-2010 (minimum of 5 games called) - College Basketball Referee Stats - StatSheet.com


He's 21st for calling the most fouls per game. The difference between #21 and #5 is only 2 fouls too

Sorry for asking... what did he do? or is he just awful?

Absolutely not. With Colvin's apparent attitude adjustment you cannot back down now. This team is showing some life you just don't slap them in the face after what went down.

 

[helechopper]

The crowd is impressive.

 

[superfan]

On Colvin-

I hope not. Can you imagine how he's gonna feel about this if we pull it off? He had a chance to be part of it, but he blew it by not being a team player. That's a message that stays with a kid, and it's a GOOD message

 

[cyclonez7]

We're up 2 more points than Iowa was at halftime, no big deal.

 

[2forISU]

I'm still in shock that Eddie is reffing this game.

 

[marothisu]

That's not a rule. It's only valid if the whistle was called before contact. it doesn't matter if you jump up and you get hurt. Watch the replay again.

1) No whistle was blown
2) All he did was grimmace and the contact was almost at the same time as he got hit on the arm.


That's an easy foul

Remember! Iowa was close (possibly tied) at half to Texas too. We have to stay close / maintain the lead in the first 5 minutes of the 2d half.

If we can get to the 10 minute mark with a lead, I think we can do it! Please Lord!!

 

[tim_redd]

for the record:

it was a joke about Colvin

carryon

 

[bellzisu]

I mean how can you hate Ed Hightower?
