*****Iowa vs NW Game Thread*****

I don't l like flopping, but that PMAC charge was pretty much a charge.
when did the charge rule change. I always thought you had to be planted and basically run over. Now in college basketball as the defender you are able to run with the guy with the ball, jump in front of him and fall over and it’s a charge. I hate it and wish they would stop calling charge fouls so often
 
NW defense overrated. We had a ton of great looks, but one of the worst shooting performances I’ve ever seen. Must be using the NCAA tournament ball?

We have to shoot worse than any team on the road. We don’t look like a tournament team tonight. My guess is we end up in the 8/9 game or the dreaded play in game.
 
Connor makes the stupidest reaching fouls sometimes.

so effing dumb, giving them FREE POINTS when you are ALREADY DOWN DOUBLE DIGITS right before half!!!!!

Bouie 89 percent FT shooting. Not a great guy to grab an arm and give 1 and 1.

That’s no longer the rule.
 
Yeah the game plan for the 2nd half should just be attack the lane and try to draw fouls/get to the FT line.

If you think you're already gonna lose, then go down attacking, rather than just quitting and contuining to settle for horribly missed wide open 3s..........just sayin.
Draw fouls but continue to shoot wide open shots. They'll go in eventually.
 
I pulled a liner out of the trash can and put it on the floor in the kitchen. No time to take it to the garage right now. I saw a bit of plastic on the floor from when I cut a bag open earlier, so picked it up, walked it open to the open trash bag, dropped it in, and it bounced off the top, out of the bag, and onto the floor.
It's a sign.
 
Do a short lockeroom break and get out and get some shots to fall in warmups.

I'm ok shooting some wide open 3s, if you can flip the script and get hot. Nothing impressive from NW

NW hasn't done anything. This is entirely Iowa.
Yeah, both teams played sloppy as f*** in that 1st half. The difference is Iowa can't make a wide open 3 and Northwestern can.

I laugh at the analysts trying to oversimply this for the idiots watching and say that this is because of tremendous Northwestern defense.

I would say the number of those 15 misses from 3 that were even close to being contested could be counted with one finger.......................

DeCourcy is right, of course

We're 7-12 (58%) from 2 point range

why we are not driving more when shooting 12% from 3 (2-17) I have no idea
 
Lucky to only be down 11. 8 turnovers and three turned into layups for N.
I disagree. Iowa shot uncharacteristically poorly. I suspect if you looked at the expected scoring Iowa would be predicted to be winning based on shot opportunities. Iowa is missing uncontested 3s.

Yep laughing at the halftime show currently.
 
Get Perkins and Sandfort going and Hawks have chance. I don't know why everytime Sandfort subs in Fran also puts PM in.

Yea... Tremendous defense doesn't give up wide open 3s and just hope you miss...

Thats what our defense does

Don’t think one ever had to be planted. Can be moving. It’s a tough call that’s missed frequently. Personally I’d like to see them call a foul on offensive players moving the defender with his shoulder. Easy call yet ignored
 
GFY snowflake. I'd love to meet you in person someday you piece of shit libtard.
Internet tough guy. You remind me of StateCollegeMan. Do you know mma too? Maybe just realize that the mental illness thing isn't something that should be made fun of. Now that's over lets send some positive libtard vibes to the Hawkeyes and we come back and win this one.
