It's been glorious the last two months.
Link to delicious drinkable tears?
They got away with stuff and Hanna got screwed on a couple no calls where she was bodied or hit. If it was iffy it came out in the wash.
Illegal screen? Sign that girl up to block for the football team. She was doing that all night and got away with a few more of those as well as called a few times too.
Not surprised at all……that troop of doosh monkeys is led by an AD who throws the biggest ref hissy-fits I’ve ever seen!
Deep down, ISU fans knew that wasn't going to happen. Not this year, not ever. I don't really hate ISU teams as such (I actually liked and respected their basketball team this year), but their fans, with their constant inferiority complex bubbling to the surface, particularly when it comes to Iowa, can be quite grating.
I also respected their men’s team. I guess I don’t really care about them because it seems like our men’s programs are just in separate orbits with enough other games so that the game doesn’t really matter. Now for football, I hope they lose every game in perpetuity.
But most of us here would realize it’s actually the correct call & not waste time b!tching about it.
“Us here” is the operative language. We have our share of lunatic posters but I think they mostly inhabit threads on men’s sports, and of course the off topic board.
Hannah and others were hit and bodied every time they went to the hole. We had very few, and one's, compared to UCONN, but I will say that overall the calls were pretty even. Not a parade to the free throw line kind of game for either team.
Agree. I have nothing against any of their teams, either...it's that their fans are insufferable and so ignorant.
Even without that call, Iowa still was in position to win the game. It didn’t cost UConn the game. It simply cost them a CHANCE to win it.
LoL. I still can’t believe beek nose pulled a presser to complain about the officiating after a football game. He is such a clown. Perfect fit for that school and fanbase.
Not really.
Exactly. I turned away from the Iowa men to watch the ISU women and was rooting for them against Stanford. The head coach is from Davenport. The family owns a classic bar. Many Iowa girls. I can root for them. Their fanbase is hot garbage though.
Good point - I saw this astute comment on the Cyclone board. I found it very insightful:
Well lot of the dbag fans I knew beating their chest thinking they’d make final 4 and a dark horse to win it all. Only time I cheered for ILL to win all year was their sweet 16 game vs them. ISU is a women’s CC school. That’s all they have going for them. That and Matt campbells 5* culture.
