Any road conference win is good, so good for IA on that one. Minny melted and Iowa didnt.

Man, sometimes when Luka spots up for a 3 you just know it's going in. He definitely can make those.
I don't get why teams don't play close when he goes up to the 3-point line and switch screens..Make him drive.

I miss the good ol' days of basketball where the team that actually was the most talented, won...the team that could shoot the best had the distinct advantage. If it wasn't for today's version of basketball, where being thugs on the court, pushing and shoving, elbowing, etc keeps less talented teams in the game.....we would have seen our ISU women beat TCU and Minnesota beat the one-trick thug pony Hokeyes win, sigh.

Shooting 39% from 3 at that size would make me want to have my guys aware of it, that's for sure.

Have you watched Minnesota this year? They are not a good team.

Without him Iowa would be lucky to have 10 wins. Wieskamp 1/7 with 2 points today. Awful.

I like Wieskamp.....but I always marvel at the NBA talk with him......he will not play in the NBA. Really nice college player and I wish Iowa State would get more dedicated kids like him. If I was a Maoist Chinese party official, I would be really, really displeased with one of my owners drafting him. He'll make some money playing in Europe or wherever and it will be all good.....but not in what is the NBA.

Great win by Iowa in a tough venue. Fran shutting up the haters. Another All American performance from Garza hitting clutch shots despite getting dicked by zebras all game.
Figured I would do a quick Google look at this. Pitino appears to be 33-28 at the Barn against B1G opponents. That doesnt scream tough to me.

They've been kicked out of more than one game?
Just because you weren’t tossed doesn’t mean your behavior was acceptable- especially in a visible position such as they are. Ask around about their reputation at AAU/IC West games- plenty of people know.
