They disrespected the hell out of us in Columbus...
Beth, this doesn’t mean a thing. Please don’t screw this up!
she's a wee bit tougher of a nut to crack than Gary Barta
Wonder if any of the guys got smart in the handshake line and said "See you soon, in the NIT or Vegas!".
"I ain't got time to bleed"They disrespected the hell out of us in Columbus...
Sweet revenge. Thornton took us out easily the last couple years. Feels good to take him out. He's a hell of a player. Big shot after big shot and let's his play do the talking. Great job again by the players and coaches.
Two down and ten to go. Funny how our rebounding has gotten better with Freeman watching on the bench.
Thank goodness. I thought the over dribbling, offensive rebounds, and the and ones were eventually going to burn them.
Probably Ladji's best game of his young career.
Great second half from Traore.
Pryce and Brock dead eye from the floor.
Very nice effort from everyone tonight.

I want Fran gone, no matter what happens the rest of the way, but I am going to enjoy the wins regardless.
As ugly as it was at times, this win was damn fun - after first half of the first half, anyways.

Our bench outscored theirs 27-3. 10/12 FGs and 5/6 threes. Hats off to the bench...
Please, please, please let Pryce be the designated Sandfort shooter going forward for the next ten games.
Well, they can't stop at just one. That'd be a wasted trip.
Yeah Thorton was 8-13 and seemed to get an basket any time he wanted. Dix was able to provide some defense.
Looking at the stats, Iowa shot 55 Percent overall and 42 percent from 3. OSU was only 42% and 23 percent. Seems like it should have been an easier win. Refs sent OSU to the line more. There was ridiculous 2 step continuation basket by I think Royal and he got basket and foul. Dix does something similar, basket taken away and then he missed front end of 1 and 1.
Hard to believe OSU was NCAA tourney team. 17-14 record compared to lowly Iowa at 16-15.
GREAT JOB by Fran, his assistants and the entire team ! Brock especially, was OUTSTANDING ! GO HAWKS ! Would love to the Hawkeyes beat the Illini tomorrow !
It’s starting to click for Dembele the past couple games. Wasn’t expecting that. Nice to see.
Payton needs to concentrate on 2 PT shots. For some reason, his 3pt shots has been off this year. Unbelievable number of air ball threes from a pure shooter.
We're probably a better team now with Freeman on bench. He was great for offense, defense sufferred, and Fran was doing small ball with both Harding and Threlwell and we couldn't rebound. We've been rebounding a lot better since then.
Yes. He's finally using his size and bulk to do things inside - on both ends - instead of just hanging out on the 3pt line to jack up shots offensively and standing flat-footed & continually getting beat on drives as well as rebounding efforts on the defensive end.
Other than the really bad 2 or 3 turnovers in the second half, Harding had one hell of an all-around game tonight.
I'm usually not shy about bagging on him, but he was huge in the first half and then nailing the dagger 3 to end it.
I pimped Brock and kinda pooh-poohed Dembele to begin but so glad Ladji proved me wrong. Strong on the boards AND clutch free throw shooting.
Way to go Hawks!
Way to go Hawks!
I will always remember this magical Sweet 12 B1G run.
No we want him gone based on the last 15 years.
That’s 2 games in a row his help down the stretch was valuable.
Your last game Fran? can you explain how you did not lose this game?
Play of the game: late Iowa leaves an OSU big virtually alone under the basket for likely a viscous dunk but he instead promptly chucks it OB.
LOL ... I loved it!
LOL ... I loved it!
That was one of those "I don't know why you did that, but thank you very much!" plays by the opposition.
