Graham Couch: Iowa Basketball is a mid-major roster

[CyTwins]

Got a T.

Dang

I don't think Big12 fans don't get the Big10 at all. In the Big10 you got teams that all they do is foul you all game long and dare the refs to call those fouls. Wisconsin, Rutgers, MSU, all do this. When the refs call obvious fouls fouls, that is good officiating. It doesn't matter if they have 50 fouls to 10, a foul is a foul.

This person has never had his team follow a West Virginia game on TV obviously...

 

[Legend Hawk]

Fouls? What'd he shoot from the floor and the free throw line?

Clutch.

Is anything more predictable than a Twins troll after an Iowa win? Claims to not watch the game, reviews box score, and uses some source to claim Iowa was lucky (radio, twitter, etc). Wash, rinse and repeat.

West Virginia is a good example. Now put WVU in a league (Big10) that the refs always swallow their whistles and let fouls go all over the court. That is MSU, Wisconsin and Rutgers basketball. Purdue will do some of this as well

I think Wisconsin was way too concerned with burning clock the last 5 minutes. Didn't even look for a shot till there were 5 seconds on the clock.

Exactly

Boy, WI with some awful offensive possessions.

Free throws:

Iowa 25-32
Wisconsin 6-11

Yeah I'm really trolling here lol!

You're the box score Wizard. You know. Not his best night and still 21 and 18. And the W. Clones could use some toughness like he has. Bet you don't see that in a box score.

 

[JP4CY]

announcers said several times that the crew was one of the best in the business. Lot's of NCAA tournament experience. It was a physical game but in no way did Wisc get jobbed.

Interesting. Same announcers:

The announcers have made it known now a few times that Rutgers is getting fouled with no whistles.

Which fouls that were called weren't fouls? I could show you 20 more fouls by Wisconsin that weren't called.

 

[TRYHARDER]

Between the box score and KXNO it's pretty obvious how the game went down. Better to be lucky than good

And you have neither this year. LOL

Toughness = technical foul late in the game?

Interesting. Same announcers:

The posts players for both teams should have founded out at least by the 15 minute mark of the second half. They don’t allow that much complete shoving down there in an NBA game.

Ain't that the truth lol

Garza lead the comeback with rebounds, blocks, toughness and foul shooting. Doesn't get more clutch than that.

So Wisconsin played "physical" and Iowa played "soft" besides apparently acting tough and getting a technical by Garza? Good to know

Iowa was very physical just to play through all the fouls by Wisconsin. Heck Connor sets a screen and is covering his nuts, because he knows what is coming. Sure enough Davison tries his patented nut punch/leg grab to try to draw a foul on Connor. Garza takes about his 5th shot to his face before he even gets up and reacts to the dirty Wisconsin play.

It takes toughness to play a dirty team like Wisconsin.

Davison is a punk but he's not good so I'm not sure why you guys are so worked up about him

Check your box score. It seemed to fire the team up. He took a forearm to the face.

Funny thing is, he’s a shorter version of Connor. Pretty similar players and both pull a lot of crap. Can’t complain about one but defend the other, imo.

took an arm from a player reaching for a rebound with 2.4 seconds left. Don’t think it fired them up much.
