Tough day for EIU hoops hopes

[Pope]

Iowa men's team is so good it got invited to be the opening act for Iowa's women's team in Des Moines.

 

[CyCity]

Drake is definitely the second best team in the state. I’m surprised that tweet is still up.

It just feels bad because Freeman is what you thought Omaha would be

It warms my heart you tried a dig after this

Well bless your little heart. You just keep on defending those Hawkeyes.

I was talking about Iowa. We could have named the score against Iowa.

If ISU, Iowa, Drake, and UNI all still played each other…. I could easily see Iowa going 0-4 in those games…. yet they are the Capital’s Home team because they beat Florida A&M?? Hilarious! Only Iowa…. never change.

They would. Francis would wet himself and cry if he had to play UNIs schedule so far (#21 nationally per KenPom).

I think what’s even more sad about this is that you’re serious. Omaha is behind because he was playing with the US team. Naturally, I’m not surprised you don’t know what that is. While Omaha was busy playing against the best 18 year olds world wide, Freeman was turning down all the FCS and NAIA offers he had, because Fran was dumb enough to give him a scholarship. After the beating he got from Jones and King in Ames, it wouldn’t surprise me if he called the domestic abuse hotline. He’s averaging 9 ppg, and is way closer to his ceiling than Omaha. However after watching a full season of Sqwak football, I’m not surprised you hok fans think 9 points is a great number

C-

I enjoy reading Clone fans perspective, some good insight. And some of the insight, not so good. The CC obsession is a little bizarre but I guess not a lot different than Iowa fans hating on Purdy.

And it is the "rivals" forum afterall.

 

[iahawks]

So ISU has to win by more than 36 today or I’m calling the season a split.

Damn, "opening act". Wish I had thought of that. I missed the warm up act but did catch the main event.

No way they go 0-4, 0-3 maybe.

Yea feels like 25 points worth of terrible.

Actually, feels more like 6-5 kind of terrible.

Worse yet, feels 0-2 in conference kind of terrble.

Just terrible around here.

Seems like the loss to ISU should count for 0-2

I was just going to post that we win by 25 today and Hoks will be right back to believing they own the state in MBB.

You are picking up your game - might want to consult with Fran and his game.

The final score doesn’t seem entirely like an accident.

 

[iahawks]

Won by 38. So I guess ISU is two points better this year.

I think Iowa held them to fewer points though - Gotta be really encouraging for hok defense going forward!

Looks like the Cyclones avoided the split, to go 2-0 against the Hawks.

Poor

That tweet is so perfectly Iowa it just makes me laugh.

This is the same university that adopted the state's Hawkeye nickname and then claims they are the reason Iowa is called the Hawkeye state. They adopted black as their school color and then claim only they should be allowed to wear black.

Iowa is so pretentious it's funny. They desperately want to be viewed as the best. They're the little girl who must constantly be told she's the prettiest, while deep down inside she knows she's no more pretty than the other girls.

Iowa might be starting to get a little pretentious, after all they are the only P2 school in the state.
