Some fan, in a home arena, needs to take one for the team - and by 'team', I mean every person who's not a Wisconsin fan - and run out on the court to cold-cock Davison and knock his ass straight out, while giving him a concussion as well.
Big Ten action 2/26-27
- Thread starter hawkjt
- Start date
I want me some Wisky in the BTT...that is all.
Tough game for Rutgers. Had the BTT 5-seed, due to tiebreaker, before the game and then fell down to the 8-seed after the loss.
But, good news for us Hawk fans, as it means Iowa is alone on the 5-line [thanks to tiebreaker]. A few games to change things between now and then, but best scenario set up right now, for Iowa (imo);
Hawks would play 12 Maryland/13 Minnnesota winner on Thursday, 4 Ohio St on Friday, and if still alive, 1 Wisconsin on Saturday.
God do I want to see the Hawks get another shot at the Badgers this season!

There should be a retention vote by the head coaches in the B1G on whether to rehire league refs after the season is complete. If they can't get 50% to retain, they should not be hired the following year. That would help to end some of the crappy officiating we see year after year.
They drop to 8th in the Big Ten but can still move up in the seedings with the games they have left (at Ind, home against PSU)
If they split their remaining 2 games, they will probably go but they will need to make a little noise in tge B1G tournament. If they win the season out, they would be solid in the top 8.
Anything less than that would have them on the outside of the bubble.
Its a shame that Rutgers lost to Layette at home, back in early December. Lafayette is ranked 308 in the NET.
Take that loss off the table, and Rutgers is a LOCK.
They already have so many Q1 wins that they might be in anyway. That was tough losing to WI but they are really built to beat a team like Rutgers with their grind it out style.
UNI wins in OT: 102-96
Panthers go 35-42 from the line.
42 free throws. Wow.
3 Loyola players foul out. 3 other with 4 fouls.

The Valley is definitely not the B1G.
It would take quite a few B1G teams three to four GAMES to get a combined 42 FTA!
And yet, watching the players and especially coaches Gard and Pikiell, just another game between respected adversaries in the Big Ten.
Sports Programs is a pretty broad indictment. Cross country, football, Volleyball, etc.? I don't think you know too much about them.
At RU, playing 7 on 5 ball (Green and Bo Boroski playing for RU), I didn't think it was possible (nor did the oddsmakers).
You realize you're encouraging someone to commit a felony? If you're serious, why don't you do it yourself and decide whether it was worth it while you sit in prison?
Yes, I was being completely serious about wanting somebody to read an anonymous post on a school specific sports-dedicated message board and literally go commit said descripted act.
They were both aware that they were being watched closely. Same thing as the Iowa - MSU game. Heated contest, but standard handshake line. No coaches barking at each other.
Good to know. Glad you're not that dumb. I'm not that dumb either, but I spent nearly 40 years in a profession that brought me in close contact with people who were that dumb, people who committed horrible acts of violence with less prompting than your satirical post.Yes, I was being completely serious about wanting somebody to read an anonymous post on a school specific sports-dedicated message board and literally go commit said descripted act.
Review of what? Two players collided and fell. It was a play on at worst but Boroski has a hard on for Davison.
You don’t want this smoke.
It's strange how much my opinion of Wisky has been influenced by Davison. I found myself rooting for Rutgers, although Iowa is competing with them for positioning in the B1G. Rutgers needs at least two more wins to get invited to the dance. The game at IU is huge for them. Wisky has a lot of guys who play all aspects of the game and fully understand their roles. That allows them to win a lot of close games. Davis is a great player.
I am surprised again that Purdon't lost, although winning at Breslin is tough. I missed the game. Painter has put together a team that should be a top 5 team in the country IMO, but he hasn't shined as a bench coach. B1G might be lucky to have anyone seeded higher than 3 in the dance.
I think Purdon't and Illannoy are the toughest match ups for the Hawks in the BTT. Like some others, I would like the Hawks to get another shot at Wisky.

Illini rolling vs Wolves...Michigan going to be desperate when Hawks come in to Ann Arbor.
They'll have MI State on Tuesday night first. Grueling - IL, then MSU, then Iowa, in 5 days. Talk about tight scheduling.
I dislike Illinois, as always, but that win of theirs today bought the Hawks a little breathing room in terms of 'fighting' Michigan for BTT seeding purposes.
Maryland with the 4-pt halftime lead vs Ohio St. A Maryland win today would not suck for Iowa.

A MD win today opens the possibility for Iowa getting the 4-seed in the BTT.
It would take some real work, but possible.
Iowa would have to beat NW, win @ UM, and expecting a L @ Illinois.
And OSU would have to lose all the rest of their games, aside from Nebraska. [vs Michigan St & vs Michigan]. Speaking of making life easy when it comes to scheduling, after today, OSU has 3 games left. ALL at home in VCA.
Thank you, Maryland.
Now need OSU to lose 2 of last 3 and Rutgers to drop another one, to make sure there's no tiebreaking scenarios involved there.
