Re: Iowa MBB now a projected #1 seed
So true and Iowa has won 13 in a row in the Big 10 now. That's very impressive.

Re: Iowa MBB now a projected #1 seed
Fran didn't seem comfortable going to his bench in Hilton. All of your starters except for Jok played over 35 minutes in a hostile environment, and they made some very bad plays down the stretch. Hell, the color guy called it with about 15 minutes left IIRC.

Re: Iowa MBB now a projected #1 seed
If Iowa wins at Maryland on Thursday, they very well could win out. Indiana is not as good as their record and I don't see Iowa losing to a midpack team or at home. If that happens, they most certainly will be a #1 seed and may also be ranked #1 depending on how OU and NC fare from here on out.

Geebus, show a modicum of class. Or barring that, post picture of your significant other.

Re: Iowa MBB now a projected #1 seed
I don't think Purdue is a team that we would want to play. We are a finesse team and might have trouble with their bigs. JMHO. In the big ten I think we would match up a lot better with teams like Michigan and Indiana. Same type of game and we would have better talent.
Re: Iowa MBB now a projected #1 seed
Maryland is possibly the most overranked team in the country, zero good wins all year.

Re: Iowa MBB now a projected #1 seed
Bringing up an exhibition loss is pretty pathetic. Sure a loss is to but there was absolutely nothing on the line, Iowa probably took the day off mentally or partied too hard.
Whatever caused the loss, looks like it was squashed. If anything, the exhibition game loss helped Iowa. Am I off base?

Totally agree. Sweeping Purdue and MSU is nuts.

Based on a conveniently selected stretch of 3 games? Sure ISU's schedule is tougher. But Iowa's is nowhere near as bad as their FB season.

Re: Iowa MBB now a projected #1 seed
Really? Who have they beaten this year that makes you worry about them. They lost to Illinois.

Re: Iowa MBB now a projected #1 seed
Really? lol "After Maryland" They've already beaten MSU twice and Purdue twice. They've had one of the toughest schedules. Just be glad Iowa is helping ISU's RPI by winning all these.

Re: Iowa MBB now a projected #1 seed
And we lost to UNI. Also, in case you forgot, Illinois played us reasonably tough for the majority of our game with them and we had Naz then.

Re: Iowa MBB now a projected #1 seed
We do tend to struggle against size but it is usually more athletic size than Purdue has. Would be an interesting game but I think we would pull it out.

Surprising. You seem pretty open minded about all this.

Come on man, Woodbury is a little goofy but he's tough. Everyone hates that guy unless he's on your team. He's certainly had a solid career even if it fell short of top 50 recruit projections.

It's virtually impossible to gauge an atmosphere by tv sound. It can vary from crew to crew. I'd wager that most posters particularly in this forum haven't been in Carver. It doesn't hold sound in like Hilton but at court level it is as loud as any other arena when full. Underrated venue IMHO but as of last year they really needed to upgrade the video boards.
