Tough day for EIU hoops hopes

[madguy30]

I will give credit to Iowa: they look improved.

Still don't defend worth the **** and teams don't take advantage.

Hackeyes are pure garbage

Can’t wait to hear the Hawkeye circle jerk over back to back wins against Big 10 has-beens.

Blow a kiss to the crowd Peyton!!!

I'd just like for them not to make it so the eastern Iowa media can be quiet for a few seconds.

The problem now is with 16 wins and likely to pick up at least 2-3 more, their will be large public outcry from their fans, the media, and their fan media, about how they got snubbed wrongly by the committee and why their resume was better than team A, B, or C bubble team that makes it in over them. It will be the "it wasn't a fair catch" whine all over again. Which now that I'm thinking about it might actually be kind of entertaining lol

I'd be just fine with that.

They'll have very few Quad 1 wins and even their Quad 1 wins are against marginal teams.

So what does Iowa need to do to get in???

 

[twincyties]

They need more than 2-7 against Quad 1

beat illinios once and get to 20 wins.

Andy Katz is going to so loud about this and call for 9 B1G teams.

There will be something in there about 'eye test'.

I think they'll do that. It'll be full throttle Haydenism.

it’ll be worth it if the get the ‘play in game’ again.

According to analytics, they need 20 wins to even sniff a #12 seed. That means 3 out of last 4 and one in BTT. I just don't see it. Win probabilities of last 4 games.

Only good about this is, it keeps dum ass Fran around for awhile…..

 

[rosshm16]

Did Sandfort go bonkers over the big win?

I can see them getting 3 there. NW and PSU are not good and Illinois is coached by Brad Underwood.

Guessing they go 2-2 winning at home and losing on the road. I can see them beating NW at Evanston though.

13% chance to make the tourney, and if they do sneak in, 88% they are #11 or #12 seed.

 

[CRcyclone6]

Are they really 1.5 games out of a double bye?

 

[Lafaester54]

Watched the game…no matter ones individual hate level of Iowa, Izzo is really a ****. He should have five technicals minimum per game. Every time you touch an official should be an auto ejection.

this is why they should extend Fran. He’s killing it!
