*****Illinois vs Iowa (W) Game Thread*****

[QChawks]

12pm FS1

Illinois (13-12, 7-8) comes to Carver on a 2 games win streak smashing Indy and PSU.

Iowa (23-4, 12-3) is coming off a blowout loss at Indiana and losers of 2 of the last 3 games.

This is a hot Illinois team an against a struggling Iowa club. The big ten title pressure is off now so I expect the hawks to play a bit more loose.


I’m thinking 90-77 Iowa.

Hawks struggling a bit as of late and Illinois is hot. Winning will be tough, but at least it's at home.

 

[Franisdaman]

I demand that we win this game.

Thank you.

Big bounce back today, CC goes for 40+

 

[jdw10224405]

Molly with block!

And we can’t make layups again.

 

[BubsFinn]

3 missed layups in the first 68 seconds.

 

[Bishop-71]

Stuelke rocking her best do!

 

[BubsFinn]

4 missed layups.

 

[Hawkfan_08]

Well, Gabbie shot at least.

5th missed layup

 

[Herky T Hawk]

The missed layups are back in force this afternoon.


Edit: Should have read the prior comments.

 

[IowaMeatMan]

10 points left on the court in missed bunnies so far.

 

[BubsFinn]

My high school basketball coach would stop practice and make us run if a rebound hit the floor.

 

[jdw10224405]

Kylie! Pair of 3s already

 

[Hawkfan_08]

Well well well. Kylie. Keep playing.

 

[IowaMeatMan]

Playing better now, on pace for 120

A loss is often good if you learn something and improve…Feurbach in early AND pulling the trigger. In fact the whole team pulling the trigger, no hesitation.

Clark to the bench in the 1st for air, way more aggressive, going to rack…awesome

Don’t forget Illinois beat Indiana by 20 right before we played them! WTH, right….id actually forgot that!

 

[DewHawk]

GM still struggling with shot and I think now affecting her defense.

 

[jdw10224405]

CC dropping dimes to Molly!

Another a related note I didn’t realize Maryland was playing tOSU today.

They match up well with Ohio State and they have been on a run since they lost to us, and they played us very tough. Keeping in mind of course it was out there in Maryland and this is at Ohio State but they can beat them.

She's been absolutely brutal this season.

 

[BubsFinn]

Seriously, is 3 seconds in the lane a violation in women's basketball? 41 has been enjoying a second cup of coffee in the paint today.

 

[Hawkfan_08]

Clark is shredding them with the passes. She's getting tons of hockey assists here. The assist to the assist.

Go Terps!

 

[HIWILLE]

Get McCabe out there.

But yet Fuerbach hits two big 3's and right back to the bench. Just don't get the Marshall love. Maybe give McCabe a chance as well

I'm not sure why Sydney is not in for her the entire 2nd quarter. To give Gabbie credit, she is at least shooting today.

I'd also love to see more Taylor McCabe!

 

[Hawkfan_08]

12 assists to 1 turnover. That's nuts.

 

[jdw10224405]

Really like Gabbie, but she's been brutal all season and if she can't hit shots, more of her minutes should be going to Affolter, Fueurbach, and McCabe.

 

[QChawks]

40-22

foot on gas!!

 

[jdw10224405]

Looks like a hockey game broke out with all these collisions.

That’s what I’m talking about. Go McCabe.

 

[IowaMeatMan]

Taylor going to be good.
