What excuse will EIU come up with?

This is obvious....they will say the refs as we shot 15 more free throws than them.
Iowa is a very good team and they played a hell of a game! Coming up with lame excuses just diminishes that.
They can likely find several excuses and we could point to our free throw woes. None of it matters. We won, but there wasn't a clearly better team tonight.

Well when this site as a month long, 1800+ post thread about the iowa game it holds water.
Not an excuse by them, but on Twitter, they're so butthurt that they're bringing up bowl games, the overall record of the series, etc like it actually matters to this year's basketball season.
Iowa fans should be confident - they have a really good team, but bringing up those types of things above just makes them look like sore losers and douchebags with no confidence.

8-0 is all that matters.
Suck it hoks!
I will say though, very impressed with their team. Not many teams could handle that pace they for e you to play. They were much better than Michigan and will easily make the tourney and that kills me to admit.

Nor did they cause us to miss what, 13 FTs? In the end, we didn't make that many more FTs than they did.
The game was called pretty well and even. If they use refs as an excuse, that is totally weak. Even the announcers who were in love with Iowa all night said how well officiated the game was.
Not trying to troll here, and I am sure I will get reamed, so I'm just gonna hang up and listen. But IMO Iowa wins on a neutral court by 8-10 points. Iowa State is pretty good, but if it weren't for the horrendous officiating in the first 20 minutes, this one might have been over at halftime. Gotta give credit where it is due though, definitely a much more "clutch" team than Iowa.
Good night.
Good night.
