Dang, on to the next one!

Many more chances for quality wins down the road when they're more important.

A loss is a loss is a loss....

Up to 14 in Kenpom

But strangely Iowa always low in the "luck" category. Record is worse than what the point margins would indicate. I wonder why.

Do you really think that will be the headline tomorrow? Isn't it much more likely that it will be Iowa blows 20 point in second half lead to lose to Iowa State.

isu finds a way to get fined again for douchy behavior.

When you have a 20 pt lead in the second half, and lead by eight with under 2 mins & have the ball, the loss is on you, not the opponent.

And that was exactly the case tonite.

They didn't "find a way".

They were given a way.

That is the much more accurate statement.

And you think that Iowa has never rushed the court in this series?

The headline should read, "Hawks choke away another one". Seriously, you get 30 pts from one of your players in the first half, and leading by 20 pts, you have to win the game. This is a bad, bad, loss. I agree with Bean, that this was a turning point game (good or bad).

Nope. But you can show us a pic that proves otherwise I am sure.

 

[DavenportHawk8]

I can't remember Iowa ever rushing the floor?

Sorry but this game is huge, but not that huge.

I would rather use a "fine" on a Big 12 opponent.

But Im sure when they beat KU at home, they will act like nothing happened. HAHA

How about they were shown the way....

Lots of side tracking in this post but the key word in all of it is lose.
