Seemingly never ending Iowa MBB thread (still going.....)

[SplitIdentity]

Who gives a **** who would start where? Iowa took advantage of an overconfident ISU team on a cold shooting night. Get over it.

Looks less and less like Iowa took advantage, and more and more like Iowa is actually just better.

Still remains to be seen, imo. Will Iowa have consistently good games in the B1G? OR was winning the mythical "State Championship" the major factor in their playing with much more focus and drive? 'Cuz what I saw of Iowa vs UND looked like regression, defensively that is! But, to be honest, the last 3 games the Cyclones have played hasn't made me very confident about our team's future performance.

Iowa fans getting cocky in December. Seems like we've been here a time or two recently.

Which is funny considering they lost to UNO at home in December

Yeah, ISU would have no need for a 6'8" freshman averaging 10 and 5 while getting about 20 MPG who also has shot 74.6% from the field for the year.

I'd take Pemsl. He's just what ISU needs inside. Young is injured. So impossible to compare the 2.

 

[Hawkmi1987]

I'd take Pemsl. Maybe the first legit player from state of Iowa since Barnes. He's just what ISU needs inside.

Jok seems pretty legit.

 

[isu83]

I prefer Zach "Eat a ****" McCabe when I think of senior leaders. After 4 years, he finally figured things out.

I'll take Pemsl. Maybe the first legit player from state of Iowa since Barnes.

Yeah. Just think Pemsl has a lot of upside. But you are proly right.

So if (and probably when) ISU is playing in march and Iowa is not....you'll think they're the better team?

We'll probably have the better season, but we have 1 chance each year to prove we are better than Iowa. We lost that chance this year.

ISU loses to at least a few teams every year that are not better than them. It happens. Perfect trap game we walked into that night.

So far pretty lucky to not have any of those losses yet this year.

The home team has won every game except 2 since 2004, those 2 had Fred Hoiberg involved. Better season = better year, ask Marble if he'd rather lose in the play-in game as an 11 seed or make the Sweet 16 as a 3 seed.

Edit: I was off a year, it was Marble's JR year they won, then went to the NIT to compete for a national title while ISU lost to tOSU rd of 32.

 

[AltHawk]

Over Burton or Bowie? No chance. And after watching both play multiple times I'd take Young over him all day. Young's stats don't match up because he's injured and plays on a lot more talented team, but he looks like a better player to me. Pemsl is getting run because who else is Iowa going to play down low right now? He maybe gets into the rotation if Holden doesn't get his **** together and they don't go with a 4 guard lineup, maybe.

You win one game in 4 years and all of a sudden Iowa and ISU are on a level playing field, this is good stuff.

Except Iowa is five seconds away from winning three of four. Every game the last like six years, save for one blowout on each side, has been super competitive. It is absolutely hilarious that Iowa state fans act like they have some elite basketball program.

Hilarious Iowa fans think their program is close to ISU's the past decade.

Smacking Monte on CF? **** that, I'm walking off the court on your sorry ass. And another thing, Pancheros burritos suck.

Iowa State isn't elite, just on a different level than Iowa. Not much of a debate there. Head to head supports that to. There isn't a different column for losses where you tried real hard.
