Garza vs Iowa St

yeah i understand the rivalry and all and its fun to some point, but hopefully it is just a hard fought game, without fights, some mutual respect.. I know people get energized and emotional but no need for the physical confrontation crap.. Although I love Haliburtons play, i do hate the 'long-distance call' thing he does after a 3 but those sort of things are minor and if people like them what the heck, but no need for physical stuff, just can get really out of hand in such a charged environment. Now back to the game, no doubt Garza has a superior offensive game compared to any of our bigs, but all 3 or ours have some quality aspects to their game. But dang the Hawks have a serious drop off when Garza has to come out and Kriener or particularly Pemsl come in. I was really surprised by how bad Pemsl has looked, I mean I get the injuries and all but still he just looks bad. Of course last year at Carver he overcame his injuries just to play ISU, looked so good agains ISU then took the medical red-shirt didn't he? I really expected him to look good this year, but so far not so much. Of course he will probably drop into a phone booth and change into his superman cape for the ISU game again.
Personally, I'd love it if Iowa went man to man and put Joe on Tyrese. He's tall and can pose more of a threat to block Tyrese's 3 point shot that comes from his belly. CJ on Bolton and Jobo on Nixon, and Connor on Jacobsen.
Unfortunately, I think we'll have to go zone in order to conserve our energy with lack of bodies right now.
 
Garza is playing great. He works his tail off, knows his game and rarely strays from what works. Offensively, he runs straight to the block and uses his very good to exceptional footwork to his advantage. I don't think he travels all that often, but uses and gets away with a hook quite a bit. If ISU can run, perhaps he can get tired out. However, if I were game planning, I think I'd take the page from Michigan's playbook and let Garza get his. I'd focus on ball pressure and tight three point defense as Michigan proved that Garza running wild doesn't necessarily result in an Iowa win.
Thats all well and good, but if Michigan, (who is a top 5 rated team by the way), had not shot extremely well themselves they may very well have lost at home.
 
Yep, pemsl was just backing up his teammate. Jacobson and Connor are both instigators and very punchable for opposing teams and fans. Both at fault. Coach lickity lips Putting his hands on our players.....no. The end of the game bs, that was on the clowns. Total douche moves
 
You're welcome
You bash our coach and players on CF all the time, then you come here and troll over and over. Video of one of our recruits shown dunking, you say "glad you guys are finally getting players like these". You tweet potential Iowa recruits, and jump from board to board all day pretending you have some secret insight. You're a Cyclone baby, that's fine, but learn from the likes of LC and some other Cyclones who at least have discussions, without having to troll and say stupid sh**. If you can't do that, and grow up, stay on CF with your little brother syndrome.

I would stop saying stupid $hit on here when Hawk fans stop replying stupid $hit to me when I actually do try to have civil conversations. How many times today did I say Iowa had the better team and Garza was a stud? But I didn't get any replies to those.

You literally came here today and were the first one to make a comment about the marching band and then tell people you're done and only want to discuss the game when they push back on you.

Try posting a little less like Cat Stevens and you should be OK.

Bohannon already lives rent free in the heads of ISU fans...this will just add to it.

 
Iowa is going to win, probably by a lot. Iowa St is not a good offensive team, more defensively oriented. While we have a pretty poor defense, they don't have the shooting on their team to get us out of the zone. Garza should be able to abuse their interior considering he absolutely worked Teske, who probably is the best defensive C in the B1G. They'll either have to live with that or double inside, which should leave us with a bunch of easy outside shots. And unlike last year, Connor is hitting quite a few of those or at least driving and creating a secondary shot.

Too bad for Iowa St. Calling themselves "The Bear" and then absolutely getting smoked in every important sport for the 2nd year in a row plus losing 4 straight with WBB, 5 straight in FB, stopped counting in wrestling, and now, 3/4 in MBB.

By the way, we don't believe you Cyclone fans when you say you don't care, the players don't care as much, or simply that its our Superbowl. News flash, you're the Michigan and we're the Ohio St in this rivalry. And just like Michigan, you're a goddamn embarrassment.

Here's what you should expect as a normal person coming to Iowa's board. At least 1/3 of the comments will be ridiculous and hateful towards ISU, as some of your fans coming here have pushed those guys to the edge. Another 1/3, like myself, will debate and talk sports all day long, no matter who you are, until you start bashing our players and/or coach. The last 1/3 will just put you on ignore and move on with their day. Expect this every time you come on here, and you'll do just fine.

Based on what?

Draws a ton of charges, does a good job denying the ball to the other team's best player, etc. They put him on Oregon State's best offensive player in the second half and he did a great job on him.

The last clown to put up 40 on the road in conference?

I actually looked it up - no Cyclone has taken 32 shots in a game in Rhodes in 1988. I think only 5 times in the last 10 years has a major conference team had a player take 32 or more shots. It's kind of a weird outlier game honestly.

JBo said that he would "die to play in this game" and that he's had the game circled for 2 years. It honestly appears to be ISU living in his head rent free honestly. I think he really wants to break the Hilton losing streak.

IMO they have a great chance to do it tonight.

Nah....I have never seen a fan base get so riled up by a player that they constantly say sucks. Its really something.

Meh, I think it has everything to do with Iowa blowing it there two years ago.

Please explain to me how Iowa "blew" it? Is it because they had a lead at one point? Iowa's last lead in the game was with like 11 minutes left in the game.

I think JBo and you have the 2017 game confused with the 2015 game. A game that Bohannon did not play in.
 
^this. They don’t appear to be a good shooting team. They are chuckers. Unless they are on, I like our inside out game against them. I think that’s our recipe going forward and I think we know it and are getting better at it.

Indeed I did Jamal, the Morris runner. Congrats on your ability to type by the way, after listening to you talk, I was convinced there was no way you were smart enough to turn on a computer.
 
So you think a player saying he's a had a game circled for 2 years is just normal, run of the mill stuff?
If Iowa wins tonight, you can look to the fact that Iowa has a lot of Iowa-born guys who care a lot about the rivalry as one of the big reasons why...

Well, that, and Iowa being the better team

"Tyrese talks about this game all the time..and we're playing for something bigger than just a basketball game".

1:15 of the video below ...Seems like he cares. :)

I'm going to your game thread to drink all the tears. The over/under on "**** Iowa" is set at 72. Then you come here and whine about not being able to have "civil discourse"
