I guess Iowa's collapse will start in March this year...

I'm not following. Indiana and Northwestern both have over 12 wins.
Indiana 13-11
Northwestern 12-11
Do you mean 25-22?
Or the last two conference opponents on the regular season schedule?
Wisconsin 17-7
Nebraska 13-11
30-18
8-13 combined record of ISU’s last 2 conference opponents
Hawks 2-0
ISU 1-1
What’s your point?
TCU will make the tournament. NW should fire their coach.
FIFY
I think Collins is fine, his main problem is that he's at a very tough academic school, surrounded by other Big 10 teams in close proximity. They have to recruit nationally but only this year did they make an effort to upgrade their facilities. I don't think firing Collins will solve any of Northwestern's inherent long-term issues.
Notre Dame does fine under the exact same circumstances and is a football school. NW is an all time dumpster but today’s loss was the worst I’ve honestly seen any team in a long time.
Sure, I’d take the W too. All I’m saying is that it’s not apples to apples.
Jamie Dixon has had more postseason success in 1 year than Northwesterrn has in their program’s history.
Yeah, that Penn State team that beat Northwestern 59-52 on Monday, IN Evanston...they’re a real doozy. I’m sure glad ISU doesn’t have them coming up on their schedule.
Penn State needs to fire him too. It’s mind boggling how he’s still got a job.
Notre Dame isn't in the same class or position as Northwestern. Two entirely different schools, one with a long-standing history dating back nearly 100 years. Think Vanderbilt, Rice etc.
I used Notre Dame as an example because they are similar sized, similar academics, and in B1G country.
