I feel awful for Ayo and Illinois

Look, the Hawks might lose tomorrow. I hope they win and if they don't I will be VERY down. But, it would we SO MUCH WORSE to see the Hawks lose tomorrow and know that the Freaking team to the East moved on.

As I have said MANY TIMES, the Crying Illini are the ONLY team (and that includes Wisconsin) that actually had players comment to the Media that they HATE ALL THINGS IOWA!) Screw them and the ugly horses the rode to Indy on!!!! Slap the floor with that losers!!!!

Sorry...too early?
 
I'm happy to see Illinois go down, but Iowa has a tough game tomorrow. I'm not going to get too glib.
Meh, they are relegated to talking sh** about the regular season results now anyway.

At least we have a solid excuse in the fact that f***ing Oregon got a free pass to the 2nd Rd.

If we win tomorrow, there's gonna be a LOT of sad Illinois and Wisconsin fans..... :cool:

I had loyola beating the Illini in my brackets, so nice!!! Unfortunately, I had OSU into final 4.

The EGO on the Illini had been over the top. I think their overconfidence is what did them in.

I hadn’t thought about this, but I think it’s true. Illini did seem like a cocky team. Which isn’t a bad thing necessarily, but it can lead to being blindsided like they were today. What I now appreciate more than ever about Iowa is how grounded they are. Luka Garza is perhaps the most kind, humble and self-aware college basketball star of the past 50 years. He sincerely seems like he’s from a 1950s movie. The entire team seems to follow his lead. And while JBo is using his platform to advance the convo on college athletics, he’s earned the right to be a lightning rod. This team is mentally strong.

If you think their horses are ugly wait until you see the mugs on every player on the Illini team.

Hands down Illinois was the ugliest team in CBB this year. Maybe ugliest team ever assembled in CBB history.

Ayo was the ugly to end all ugly people.

I actually think Iowa seeing some of the other B1G teams lose is to their ad advantage. Should keep you on your toes. I think the Hawks have the advantage having played and gotten the first game jitters out. Oregon being off for awhile may really hurt them

Let's hope so because I don't feel like reading through countless "tired legs" posts tomorrow......
 
Sorry, not Sorry? ;) I missed the game did my Ramblers (grad school) just dominate from tip to finish? What did Kofi do? tia

I am also guessing Curbello was not grinning ear to ear & having a hugfest like in our game!?!?
Loyola dominated the entire game. Kofi got schooled by Loyola's big guy. Curbello wasn't grinning today . Sister Jean was grinning!
 
Loyola is a bunch of prep school kids....or at least they look like it. I hope they were talking like upper crust prep school kids all day to Illinois. That would be beautiful.
 
I hate how we talk trash as a fan base like the Hawks have accomplished something. You invite all the people that most of us hate coming over here to boast the second we are out.

We better not lose tomorrow...
08....I know for me. I have neve said we would win tomorrow. In fact, I said in my earlier post that we absolutely could lose. But, if you think the other fan bases...especially those from Illinois won't throw shade at us (win or lose) you are mistaken. I am going to enjoy today as long as I can. :)

What I hate is beta males like you. Illini fan base are the biggest shit talkers I have ever met. BTT they were chanting during our game, “we want Iowa.” They are ignorant cocky losers!
We are going to win tmw and the rest of the Big can watch us in the sweet sixteen!
 
I would presume Univ of Illinoying, AKA Ayo Dosunmo Univ, losing translates this loss to helping Luka's POY status and move some on the fence votes in Luka's direction.......I hope.

That and a Loyola team who just "Does the Work."
 
I've mentioned this in the past, but my son had to guard Krutwig in high school...he’s one big dude. Good kid, good family, so happy to see them beat Illinois today. Their defense was amazing. It’s a good day!

So my que why when Illinois was down why did they continue to play half court defense and not press?
