*****Iowa vs Drake Game Thread*****

Refs have made a couple of bad calls but Iowa playing like shit now. With half the team in foul trouble, this could get scary
 
What a mixed bag today. We got the double-digit dub with many rough edges to smooth out yet which is a good thing. If we played great and only won this way, we're gonna be in trouble for B1G play.
 
Lots of turnovers that seemed like bad score/situation decisions. Think they can learn from that, but I like the mental resiliency the team shows after making mistakes. A few runs at the lead, but Iowa responded.

I feel like they are still trying to find their bread and butter, what they need in situations to get the right shot for different players.

Lucy didn't get any easy looks, but she still managed to get buckets. The technical on her was a bs call.

Can see that Iowa is going to have to be very good on free throws, will probably decide a lot of games for them.

O'Grady continues into this senior season. Almost 30 pts.? Damn.

Dinnibier with a career game. Hitting all those free throws and killing Iowa with 3s until her legs gave up. Good player.
 
I don’t know about others but this was a really good win. Drake came in determined to shoot 40 3s and hope they could slow Iowa by playing a frenetic pace. Thinking without CC Iowa couldn’t play that way. Wrong.

Only concern was TOs. But great shooting advantage and some ladies are emerging who look like all Big 10 caliber players.

Oklahoma coach is Drake's old coach. Played at Dowling, right?? Then played at Iowa for Bluder.

Some speculation she might be Iowa's head coach someday... She's been successful at both Drake and Oklahoma... Timing and interest may not work out but you never know...
