Mostly this comes from the saturation of Clone talk in the Des Moines area now. I understand their fans want this, but I've switched off talk shows and sports segments for awhile. At some point, listening to Clone homers becomes beyond tiresome.
Iowa State in the NCAA Tournament Poll
- Thread starter Underscore2
- Start date
Ill watch all the games and cheer for the Clones. The only game that will be hard to watch will be Texas A&M and OU. I know they will replay the collapse a hundred times. Personally hope OU beats them by 30.
Need a response that you will watch with indifference. I will be watching because I think it will be a fun game to watch. I really don't care if they win or lose. I know that seems odd for a rival, but I kind of like watching them play.
Now Wisconsin on the other hand........

I'm still in disbelief at the last 45 seconds of the UNI game. What an awful way to lose. Has been fun to have ISU, Iowa, and UNI in the tourney the last few years. ISU will have its hands full with Virginia. Will have to play one of their best games of the year to win.
Hopefully all three teams can build off the last few years so all can keep dancing in years to come. That stretch from 2002 - 2010 where there wasn't much success for any of the three teams was brutal. It's nice to care again.

I am not sure I will be able to watch the OU-A&M game. Cannot stand to see the meltdown again. After the IA-Vill game I took a nap and did not think about the game again. I have not slept a full night without thinking about UNI-A&M game. I have suffered through many close Hawk NCAA losses since 1970 and you never get used to it but the UNI loss may never be topped.
There should be an option of "I'm only rooting for them to win/lose due to financial implications of my brackets".
I've been there before, as an ast. coach. Our team was up 7 with about 45 seconds to go and we missed FTs and the other team drilled contested 3s, including a banked shot at the buzzer to beat us for a trip to State.
If Iowa ever did what UNI did, though, my rage would probably break.
I will watch the ISU game and will be fine with either result. I will laugh if they lose and wish them well if they win. It's a no-lose situation for me because I'm not a fan, but don't mind rooting for in-state teams over teams I absolutely do not care about....and Virginia is one of them.
Should be a really interesting matchup of very strong offense and really strong defense. Whatever happens, happens. They endured a hefty dose of Hawkeyes all fall and pretty much all the way until mid February so they can have their moment. I'll be happy to see Niang gone for good though.
Poll should have had the option "Yes, because I'm watching to see how often Niang caresses some dude's manhood."
Maybe (no other plans for tomorrow night as of now). Not rooting against them in basketball. If I do watch, I'm hoping for a GREAT game that's decided by the players.
It's really their only chance to vote on something. You see... felons are prevented from voting in political elections.Clown fans stuffing the ballot box I see
Just tuned in and niang got his 4th foul and then came the booooooooooos. Do you think if you boo enough the refs will stop calling fouls?? If I was a ref and the home crowd booed me for a foul I'd start calling even more tick tacky stuff
The announcers thought he could have had four fouls by half, but they weren't called. He's a good player and could be a lottery pick.
