The Fran fade

If I were an Iowa fan I would be a little upset that my players were constantly trying to pick fights on twitter. Iowa seems to have a history of not doing well against physical teams and instead of playing tough they would rather complain to the refs the entire game...and then after on twitter.

I agree 100% with you on this. It is bad enough during the emotions of the game, but it is very frustrating as a Hawkeye fan when players take to social media being babies about the refs.
 
Selection Show tonight is going to be awesome! I can't wait to see how much more triggered ISU fans can get in this thread when Iowa gets a #2 seed. With a #2 seed Fran will have officially passed Fred, Prohm and tied Eustacy as having the greatest regular season in the state of Iowa over the past 25 years.

hey dumb **** Larry has 2 2 seeds

Acting is a huge part of their game.

I wish this were not true, but I noticed what seemed to be a few examples of that yesterday against the Illini. I wasn't paying attention to it throughout the season, but I did notice a few examples in that game.
 
Thanks for the insight. I noticed it with jbo and CM yesterday. LG seemed to complain a lot about nothing. I like LG, less of a fan of jbo and cm.

Tousaint(sp?) and Garza yesterday as well. There is a lot of epl flopping also.
 
If any hoks fans are going to be honest with themselves, everyone knows the 1980 team with Ronnie Lester was their best team ever.

The ISU elite 8 team would run this year's hok team right out of the building.

The best Hawk team was Miller's 6 pack.
 
The Cyclone’s season is over. Let’s talk about Iowa, who many said would make the final four.
Who are the many that you speak of? Is it possible? Yes. Likely? No. I personally don’t know one single Hawk fan that has made that prediction.
 
They are capable/have the players to.
I think with how much they've played together over the years I wouldn't want to bet against them unless the line is crazy.
All it takes is a good team with some sort of credible big presence and athletic guards. I'm guessing there will be some of those in the NCAA Tournament (including Illinois, but many others). It depends on matchups. They will blow out crappy teams, but it will be "cheatin' mofos/ right there to the end despite the refs/ tired of losing to teams we are better than" time if they match up with someone like Illinois (or someone better).
