******Iowa vs Ohio St Game Thread******

One helluva miracle comeback to get to OT. Battling an overrated OSU and the usual three incompetent sidekicks proved too much in OT . . . with two Iowa starters having fouled out and two others with 4 fouls. Meanwhile, OSU's starting FB takes the handoff up the middle time after time after time, and it's an automatic foul. Iowa takes it to the hoop and, well, good luck with that say the officials. Bullshit.

Of course Iowa didn't play well, but that doesn't excuse the &*%$#@# officiating. A foul is one thing at the OSU end and another thing at the Iowa end.

The big-person bullying in basketball is ruining the game. Call the damn offensive fouls, and it would stop overnight, and we'd have a semblance of basketball again.
 
Cotie McMahon is what Iowa needs Stuelke to be... a finisher. I believe Cotie killed Iowa once last year, too.

Look, I’m not trying to be an ass to you in particular. It’s just the things some of our fans say are baffling to me..

A finisher?! She shot eight of 21 from the field. That’s not very good for someone who takes pretty much all of their shots driving to the basket…. If she got called for the fouls she commits per game she’d average about 15 minutes.

She’s not a basketball player she’s a football player. And I’m not normally that petty but I’ve watched this girl play a shit ton. She just runs people over.

without CC feeding her dimes :(

Yes…. once again, how little some people, not our fans, but many people on the national stage still don’t understand the CC effect.

Hannah is a solid player but with the right point guard she looks like a superstar. She’s equally not good enough yet and still better than some of our really petty fans act like.

Some games she’s awesome, some so so. Kind of like our whole team really. But honestly, I’m not really that mad about this game outside of the fact that I swear the convenience of the foul calls was really arbitrary.

I could settle for AOG or AH just being a little more aggressive, polished under the basket.

I totally agree with this… I said it last year when we played Ohio State out there. Cotie McMahon fouls 50% of the time she drives into the lane. How about she ran into Hannah and all they called was Hannah knocked the ball out of bounds, what the holy hell!

Jan still hasn't figured this out yet all year!
I 100% agree! They struggle with fundamentals, dribbling, passing, shoot ft, game situations, rebounding, valuing the BBall, etc. Hell, I about fainted today because OGrady almost left the floor today, did she even get 1 rebound?

I think they are referring to making a few shots through contact, which hannah hasn't been doing.
You do a good job of it.
 
The good news is that it was a winnable game.
The bad news is that they really pissed it down their leg to lose.

So many unforced errors. So many missed opportunities.

Still have no idea why AOG is playing over Ava.
Maybe Jensen can't make tough decisions on personnel, if not does not bode well for future. It very very obvious AOG is not a BIG caliber player.

Here’s the dealio if you are someone and I can’t honestly remember if you do, are continually throwing a fit about a women’s basketball game on a message board filled with men sitting on their couches and I offend you… I’m super glad about that🤷‍♂️

You’ve literally never watched any other women’s basketball games ever have you?

Well, hell, your gripes probably with Lisa Bluder then isn’t? She thought she was a big 10 player, she sure played her enough, she recruited her? I’m gonna tell you something if you gave me an opinion that the sky was blue, I’d ask for a second opinion because you’re so clueless.

You are complete asshole! Just because someone has a differing opinion than your narcissistic BS they are wrong. F YOU!!

You don’t have an opinion you’re an effing jerk! You’ve got your head shoved so far up your own ass if you’ve noticed, I could have reasonable discourse with plenty of people you’re just a shitty individual you say mean shitty things!!!!

Most of which don’t even make sense…

All of these women miss lots of layups, every team that plays Ohio State turns the ball over a shit ton, 18 by Iowa is an absolute win considering where they were early in the season… We lost this game because we shot 29% in the first half.

Ava Hyden was not going to win this basketball game for us and An O’Grady actually has helped us win a few. You just have no clue what you’re talking about.

Only an idiot says stupid shit like you just don’t like anyone disagreeing with your opinion… I have a problem with people like you, just people like you, who are mean spirited and vindictive PERIOD!!!!

I’m gonna sum this up in a tidy bow for you and the people that act like you… it does not matter who Iowa’s coach is, if they lose, you will be convinced they played the wrong people and coached poorly!!

That’s how simple your mind is. It’s not about opinions, it’s about attitude & perspective. We’ve lost 8 games to Tournament teams.

Jennie B @ Oklahoma has lost 6, you’d be bitching about her too, because that’s who you ARE!!

your schtick is worse than any poster on here except the tool that keeps on complaining about everyone not being super positive all the time on the mens board. that's what is offensive.
Your complaining is child like. Most here are talking about the games, you talk about other posters.

derp. this game was decided by one possession. So yes a play or two by ava in the first half may have made a difference. PERIOD>>>>
such a tool.
 
This isn't a Final Four team. But they just took a top 10 team to OT on the road after trailing by 13 at the half....and by 9 with under a minute left.

It's a good team that's working its ass off...that's about as much as we can ask at this point.
Best Case scenario is they get a backside of the bracket, maybe climb up to a 7 seed against a beatable 10 and then play a 2.

Worst case scenario right now we are a 8/9, and even if we beat the 8, we're looking at a 1 in the round of 32.

Right now, ESPN has us against Creighton first round (winnable,) but then at Texas (brutal).

Hey your needed down on #12 K-st board, they are losing by 19 and I’m sure they need some folks like you to pile on the coaches 😂

Of course, that’s your opinion 🤷‍♂️ you don’t like it and I don’t care. In fact that’s not exactly accurate. I’m glad it pisses you off… It bothers you so much you’re completely unaware. I have plenty of very good basketball discussions with lots of people that aren’t jackasses.

Derp….and you coach what 😂😂😂😂😂 by the way as I said to your friend, they’re lambasting the Coach down on the Kansas State board you need to hurry down there I know jackasses like you enjoy the misery of others! 😎

You’re just like the other guy… No matter who the coach is for the rest of your adult life when they lose a game you’ll be convinced it’s because they played the wrong people and they did a bad job. That makes you an asshole. I’m sorry. And I mean that, it’s a very sad shitty way to live & that’s you 🤷‍♂️

Yes….id like their chances @ home
 
I didn’t get to watch the game. Can anyone tell me why Affolter was taken out and replaced with Mallegni in OT? Not sure what Mallegni provides in that situation.

This game is the reason I was disappointed that Iowa didn’t get Audie Crooks. She would have been an immediate and substantial upgrade over O’Grady and Iowa would be battling for another B10 title. Bonus: a couple hard fouls for freight train McMahon.


Don’t tell @shudaddy that. Holy smokes, he’d probably take time out from pulling wings off of flies to tell you that you’re completely off base.
