Tough day for EIU hoops hopes

That is both incredible and embarrassing.

To be fair they were one point away from making it last season. It is JUST like being in the Sweet 16. Kind of like a play in game is JUST like being in the real tournament. Right @TwinsLuvsHawks

Who said losing was a "comfort"? It was fun playing on the weekend, it sucked that we lost, especially when you are that close to winning.

Maybe Fran could put that on shirts "almost made the sweet 16!".

I am busting your chops. It is fun. Just like I assume a January Bowl game is fun.

HN and HR. There are more than the half dozen here.

Are they actively participating in chats WHILE the Cyclones are playing? If so - that is pathetic (but that is their choice). Which is my point - visiting a rival's site and trying to argue how great your team is in a futile attempt to get validation of your team's value is extremely PATHETIC.

 

[TwinsLuvsHawks]

Every metric said Iowa State was better last year at the end of the season but you seem to be very happy losing in the second round so you do you

Maybe the NCAA should skip playing the games and just rely on metrics after the conference tournaments are complete. Call up the networks that televise the tournament and tell them that isu fans know the best way to determine which teams are the best. All they have to do is ask CyTwins and we won’t have to actually play the games.

Post a link to how well your argument is accepted.

especially as elusive that has been for the Hawks. I didn't realize until @TwinsLuvsHawks came on here did I realize that the last time you guys have seen a Sweet 16 weekend was 1987. I understand telling yourself you were one point away from the S16 is a comfort for you guys.

is it comforting to clone fans that you were able to be within 2 point of FAMU at home?

LOL, how can I know who had the better season until it is over. Let me guess, you will claim a number #1 seed had a better season than a # 5 seed, even if the #5 seed wins a National title and the #1 seed gets bounced in the first round.

So your contention is that if the 1 seed loses in the 1st round, they had a worse SEASON then all 16 teams who lose in the round of 32?

Actually it was Tom Davis’s last year. 1999....lost to eventual champion UCONN

It's even a true statement you are going along with.

It's been a long time, not since 1987 though.

This isn't even accurate.

The bangles lead singer does give me a boner though.

 

[Mick Mars]

This isn't even accurate.

Here’s some accuracy-

Since Iowa BB’s last Sweet 16 in 1999:
*ISU- two REGULAR season Big 12 championships
*ISU- Elite 8
*ISU- three Sweet 16’s
*ISU- five Big 12 conference tournament championships
I didn’t take the time to add up head to head IA-ISU- I’m guessing ISU has a slight 2-3 win lead in that category but it’s been pretty close over that span if I recall correctly. The only thing on that list that IA has sniffed is two Big 10 tournament championships.

Fair.
That said the awkward thing is so did bono? Lol

 

[jmb]

According to the YouTube machine. That said I stand corrected?

Shayok got some run with the sixers last night. Remember when you were happy Iowa State "took" him because they had to use two years of a scholarship on him?

Her name is Susanna! Still hot.

 

[Crookedhatkid]

Serious question for the Iowa fans on here. Does Iowa hang a banner for round of 32 appearances?
