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

No, Iowa actually got more votes than last week it's just other teams had better weeks and jumped them like Kansas State and Florida State

Well it is a bit shocking, but I feel that is about where they belong anyways.
 
Jorbo needs to get back to plantar fasciitis levels of production for the hawks to max out imho.
 
Not really. You beat a team that has lost 9 out of 10 and a bad Northwestern team at home while Florida State and Kansas State had great weeks
Exactly. Other teams had opportunities for better wins and took advantage, thus jumping Iowa.

One thing that is really going to hurt Iowa come tourney time is they are really easy to short prep for. They really don't have a mismatch and the blueprint on how to defend them is easy plus everyone will have a zone offense put together well in a month

What??? They are a pretty good offensive team. If they are so easy to defend, then why don't more teams do that?

Teams fall into the "let's foul Iowa" trap a lot, especially in a conference with a lot of poor coaching. The book is out on how to defend Iowa. Run Bohannon off the 3 point line, make Cook shoot open jumpers, don't let Wieskamp get the ball and don't foul.

Compared to a lot of other teams that will be in the dance Iowa would be one of the easiest to short prep for

Plus Cook is a walking Offensive foul if defenders would just learn to sell it. He gets away with initiating a ton of contact and once they get in the tournament he won't get those calls.

Teams already try to do this. They try to force Cook to shoot jumpers and they already run Bohannon off the three point line. Yet, Iowa still averages 82 points a game.
