We are what, 4 days and 1 game removed from being straight up murdered by Michigan, so now the Fran Fade never existed? Am I missing something?
Iowa faded in January this year FWIW. Lost twice to a .500 team. They have had an OK Feb, basically took care of business and had one instance where I would consider them "stealing" a win, that being yesterday.
Well then I guess the Hawks have finally figured out the defense. Or Ohio was just really cold yesterday. Either way, looked like ****FIFY. KenPom has them as the 3rd most efficient offense in the country. They have a 53.5% effective fg%.
I mean, I don't think they were on the 2 line after the drubbing on Thursday night. It took them until the very last day in Feb to get to that. Really just setting themselves for a more epic choke job in March.So it is an "OK" Feb. when you go from a 4 seed to a 2 seed and sit at #5 in the AP poll and the NET rankings?
LOL man, Iowa having a great year is making you lose your mind.
like the OSU game in IC. close game and all of the sudden they hit 4 straight 3s in about 1:30 of game time (3 by Ahrens).When you go on the road and pretty much dominate a team from start to finish, that is not stealing a win. Iowa lead almost the entire game and a lot of it was by double digits. Now if it was a back and forth game and Iowa made a couple plays at the end of the game to get a win, I might agree with you.

Or just take a look at what some of the teams above them did last week. Oklahoma lost twice and once was to KSU. Villanova lost by double digits to Butler.I have never seen a team lost by 22 and move up 4 spots in the AP Poll. Guess Michigan is well thought of. Their body of work says they are the #1 team. 1 loss in the best conference in the country says a lot.

When you go on the road and pretty much get dominated by a team from start to finish, that's a lack of preparing for your opponent. Iowa was behind almost the entire game and a lot of it was by double digits in the second half. Now if it was a back and forth game and Iowa made a couple plays at the end of the second half to get a win, I might agree with you, but they folded.

Uh, yeah they were. Iowa was a #6 in the Net after the Michigan loss. Iowa went 1-1 vs top 5 teams this week, playing both games on the road.
If Iowa flops in the NCAA, they won't be the first or last team to do so. I mean Fred **** the bed in March as well.
Doesn't Iowa have 7 losses? And they are on the 2 line....further proving my point that this is a SOFT year in CBBUh, yeah they were. Iowa was a #6 in the Net after the Michigan loss. Iowa went 1-1 vs top 5 teams this week, playing both games on the road.

Iowa usually flops in the B1G tournament first though.
I can understand how you'd see it as a down year from your perspective.Doesn't Iowa have 7 losses? And they are on the 2 line....further proving my point that this is a SOFT year in CBB
It took a lot of help from other teams flailing this week to keep Iowa where they are at now.

LOL, only 6 teams in Power conferences don't end up failing in conference tournaments. Conference tournaments are meaningless unless you are horrible and you manage to win the conference tournament.
You actually honest to god are an awful troll lol.So, if lowa would lose their first game it wouldn't affect their seed? Plus you can say they are meaningless since Iowa has never one one under Fran, LOL!!
