Like I said last week, when one of the few feathers in your cap is Bolton being better than Toussaint it has been a rough season.

I'm making fun of all you guys who said they'd rather have Connor and Toussaint over Bolton. That is all

What a game again by Garza. When he has players around him making some shot, and the D can't focus solely on him, he absolutely destroys people. 27 points scored in basically in the first 5 min. of the game and then the last 10 min. of the game, as the rest of the game he was in foul trouble.

If you put a good defender on him 1 v 1, he is gonna torch them. Michigan put Teske (who is one of the best big man defenders in the country) on Garza 1 v 1 and Garza lit him up for 44. Penn St. tried to guard Garza with Mike Watkins (another great big man defender) 1 v 1 for awhile as well. Garza torched him for 34 and forced Penn St. into a zone.

Garza is super fun to watch. The way he works and gets position down low, there is nothing these even good defenders can do to stop him once he gets the entry pass. If he receives the pass, he has already won with his positioning and it is a easy 2 pts. every time. I'm surprised teams don't just do what Nebraska did and pack it in on Garza with a double team every time and even a triple team sometimes.

Shouldn't this be in an Iowa thread?

Getting Fredrick back last night was huge for Iowa. Could be the difference in making or missing the tournament.

Right now, Bart Torvik has us at a 96.5% chance to make the tourney with a projected seed of around 6.

There is only one remaining game that would be considered a bad loss, home against Nebraska.

I think we need 6 more regular season wins to be in the tournament.

You may be right but we'd be sweating if the Hawks only win 6 more regular season games.
