Hawks are 2-1.

Doesn’t work that way.
I hope you are right, but that seems like a lot of koolaid to me.
If it worked like this, 175 teams would qualify for an at large bid every year.
Yeah I’m not to optimistic about this team. We just seem a step slow on defense. Against average teams we will struggle. I don’t want to see what happens when we play the likes of MSU and OSU. Unless we’re shooting at a 70% clip, we will get boat raced by good teams.
Yeah no shit you'd take that. Winning Big 10 games at a 2:1 rate.
I'm sure the other teams in the schedule would equate themselves to Oral Roberts, DePaul, and SIUE.
We will most certainly know more 3 weeks from now.
If we played in Oral Robert's conference we could achieve a .667 winning percentage. Iowa is better than Oral Roberts but a lot worse than Depaul.
Just to clarify I think we lose all of those early games against the power 5/6 but I want to believe somehow we get 1 with the stars aligning one night. This team does not pass the eye test and DePaul’s an early indicator of that. It was borderline lick embarrassing.
They clearly don’t know how to extrapolate.
Maybe if we played Oral Roberts 19 more times.
Iowa was 1-0 after the first game. That extrapolated out to 32-0.
I am not sure which end of the court worries me more. Offensively Iowa appears to be Garza and 3-pointers. Defensively it does not appear canceling the PTL has had any impact. Not sure what Fran and staff do in practice, but when he is lamenting the team doesn't understand they need to move the ball and not quick shoot. I thought this was the focus post-DePaul but they did the exact same stuff against ORU. Good thing they had a 21 point lead to work with.
Michigan St., Maryland, and Ohio St are
ranked in the top 20 AP rankings this week.
The Big Ten is going to have plenty of teams
in the middle of the pack in the conference
standings. Iowa will really have to fight hard
to be in the middle of the race.

Cancel your KenPom subscriptions boys, this is the kind of deep analytics that is revolutionizing the game.
