    Every one knows that's gonna happen anyway... way to go Nostradamus. You're very good at snide message board retorts, but otherwise you're a tad bit shallow.

    How many Iowa All-Americans has ISU missed out on?

    Yes. That was a team primarily made up of Iowa talent though. Something to be said for that.

    How many Iowa All-Americans has ISU missed out on?

    That's ok, I forgot how ISU fans count time... that would be whatever is convenient to make their point. It's a small small world in Ames, but whatever makes you happy.

    How many Iowa All-Americans has ISU missed out on?

    So Iowa's 2nd place finish in the Big Ten, a mere 6 years ago means that too much time has gone by and Iowa's best days are behind them? Help me here, I'm trying to figure out what you are saying?

    How many Iowa All-Americans has ISU missed out on?

    You would like to think it's Fred envy... And you would like to ignore history.... And you might suggest that Iowa was only successful before 1980... but that just makes you ignorant and I can't do anything about that. Sorry I can't help you.

    How many Iowa All-Americans has ISU missed out on?

    Just looking at the last 3 years is hardly fair.. two of those year were the program reemerging from the darkest years of Hawkeye basketball in modern history. You are deluding yourself if you think McCaffery won't get Iowa back to the Big Dance. Heck, Alford got Iowa to 3 NCAA tournament...

    So the first opportunity for ISU to surpass Iowa in NCAA tournament appearances is in the last year of Freddies current contract extension... is that your prediction?

    Not sure what you are finding so funny... the tradition part is true. The future is yet to be determined... ISU is down to Iowa, 22 to 14 in NCAA tournament appearances, that's a lot of ground to make up.

    Why even go there? Iowa State has many more tournament appearances to go to reach the level of the more tradition rich Iowa Hawkeyes... With the resurgence of Hawkeye basketball, ISU may never catch up.

    Better job so far: Fran at Iowa or Freddy at ISU?

    Just a few observations, some of which suggest the reason why Iowa IS a different team than when they played ISU... 1. One thing I've noticed in the last 4 or 5 games, the Iowa guards are spurning the 3 point shot and either driving to an open spot or working off of a screen to shoot the 10 to...

    Congrats to Iowa MBB team

    All of those missed 3's didn't necesarily equate to empty possessions for the Badgers. They did have 17 offensive rebounds. For the game, they attempted 10 more FGs than Iowa did.

    If you want a good laugh

    If UNI wants to continue this series... they can come and play in Iowa City. There's nothing wrong with that. I'm sure many ISU fans feel the same way about playing UNI, as it should always be in Ames.
