Graham Couch: Iowa Basketball is a mid-major roster

Again, I didn't say anything about football. Have I made excuses why Iowa State lost in football?

Iowa State will be fine in basketball. Congrats to the Hawkeyes on their win. Do you think last night's game was an accurate representation of the Iowa Basketball team?

I have no idea what to expect from Iowa on a game to game basis. I don't believe we're the 18th best team in the nation but considering our wins/losses feel we're deserving of the ranking at this point. I'm not a fan of Fran either FWIW, good guy off the court but not a great basketball coach. However, I think Iowa was clearly the better team last night.

If 38% fg and 28% 3fg are good stats than you must think ever Iowa player is better than THT. I see why Illinois took his AAU teammate instead. That and the weight issue.

OK now I'm confused. Are you saying you don't think Talen Horton-Tucker is good at basketball?

Lol yes it was pretty clear. It will be interesting to see which direction each team goes for the rest of the season.

I think both are bubble teams. I don't know what the B12 is like outside of Kansas. The BIG doesn't have any elite teams outside of Michigan (I don't consider MSU a FF contender) but 7 teams are ranked and 2 others are receiving votes, so top to bottom will be a very tough conference this year.

1.) I predicted the outcome correctly
2.) I predicted it would be Iowa's Super Bowl
3.) One team was an NCAA Tournament team last night, the other was not. I'll let you draw conclusions on that

You predicted Iowa would win by that kind of a beatdown?
