McCaffreys are 3 for 17, terrible at D (especially when trying to press / create turnovers) and Fran keeping them in while sitting their quick guards and Murray. LOL

I can’t decide which game I enjoyed more the fb win over the hawks or this win by Big Red

Here's the thing. Iowa isn't very good...Nebraska's defense is great...Nebraska's offense is not good. I think they had 4 total points from the 11:00 mark to the 3:00 mark. And they went 1-15 shooting in that time...and still had a 15 point lead.

Iowa is going to beat teams they shouldn't and lose to teams they shouldn't. I think probably a .500 team simply because the Big Ten really is NOT very good this year. But I don't think .500 and a loss to Eastern Illinois is good enough to be a tourney team.

Way up there
Beating isu this year might have been one of Frans biggest wins ever, can you imagine that fanbase if they didn't have that to cling to?

.500 will not get you in the Tourney. 16-16 may not even be NIT.
