And the lower seeded teams that beat Iowa 2014-2017 all lost their next game. Usually blowouts.I'll root like crazy for the Hawks if they play Illinois, but I admit that if we play Northwestern, the masochist in me will want to see a loss. I just want to able to go around and tell people that the head coach of my favorite college basketball team, who has coached in 9 B1G Tournaments and has rock-solid job security, owns losses to the #9, #10, #11, #12, #13 and #14 seeds in the B1G Tourney. I wouldn't know whether to cry or laugh. They could play the B1G Tourney for another 500 years and you might not see that level of incompetence.
Yeah, Iowa has really been tearing it up lately. You know, the team that blew a 16 point second half (and 9 points with less than a minute to go in regulation) lead to a bottom feeder.Boatraced by a team who's also los 5 of 6, and only win is 5 points over NW at home? A team who lost at home last week to Indy, a team we swept in the last month, by 18?

I'm aware we could lose, but boatraced? That was my point.Yeah, Iowa has really been tearing it up lately. You know, the team that blew a 16 point second half (and 9 points with less than a minute to go in regulation) lead to a bottom feeder.
So you don’t think there is any chance Illinois could beat Iowa badly? Hmmm.....I'm aware we could lose, but boatraced? That was my point.
Based off of season results, no, I don't think they would boatrace us. Not sure how any fan, let alone an Iowa fan, would look at recent results and think, "man, Illinois would boatrace us based off of their 18 point loss to Indiana". In fact, I think it's idiotic to come to this conclusion. I think there's a better chance you have an intelligent post in the next 48 hours, than there would be of Illinois boatracing us.So you don’t think there is any chance Illinois could beat Iowa badly?

Everyone is a horrible match up for us right now.I'd much rather have Michigan than MSU, I'll tell you that much. MSU seems like a horrible match up for us.
Even the simple minded know how a team does against one team does not translate to how they will do against another. To think there is zero chance Illinois could beat the Hawks badly is, in your words, “idiotic”. Ask the 2017 Ohio State football team about getting boatraced.Based off of season results, no, I don't think they would boatrace us.

I didn't say "zero chance" knuckledragger. You add nothing to this board, you just bi*** about everything, like a little girl. The whole "I sprained my ankle, I need to cut off my leg" mentality on this board is just annoying.Even the simple minded know how a team does against one team does not translate to how they will do against another.

Your next intelligent post will be your first.
You’re arguing with a guy who clearly struggles to understand sports. Let it go.I didn't say "zero chance" knuckledragger.

Ah, the old “I’m wrong so I’ll resort to name calling” strategy.I didn't say "zero chance" knuckledragger. You add nothing to this board, you just bi*** about everything, like a little girl. The whole "I sprained my ankle, I need to cut off my leg" mentality on this board is just annoying.
You said you stopped watching last Thursday. You then turned around and said you were done in the game thread Sunday. Yet, here you still are.Ah, the old “I’m wrong so I’ll resort to name calling” strategy.
Congratulations, you have now joined an exclusive club.....my ignore list. Only 3 people. Kudos!
Bye.
Nebraska and Rutgers proved that.Everyone is a horrible match up for us right now.
Ugly game.Illinois leads NW 26-23 with 3 minutes left in the 1st half.

NW is playing Illinois perfectly.....but can't make an open shot to save their soul. Hawks shouldn't be afraid of either of these 2 teams.
Wow that's an interesting stat. I didn't know that. That's depressingAgreed. Fran in 9 years has never seen Saturday of the Big Ten tournament. That’s freaking depressing.
When was the last time iowa saw Saturday? 2005? 14 years, my god.
Did something to his leg this weekend. He’s out.Is vic law injured or in foul trouble ?
Have not seen him in second half
Shows how much I knowIllini are in trouble without Bracheveliii
Yep...Lots of open 3s coming too....Illini guard play will give Iowa fits tomorrow night.
Only if we turn the ball over a lot.Illini will score 85+ tomorrow.
If Illinois misses wide open 3’s & can’t make layups, they’re in for a long night against the Hawks.Yep...Lots of open 3s coming too....
