*****Iowa vs Penn St Game Thread*****

Goodness... great defensive stops in back to back possessions and we throw up a terrible half-twisting fadeaway and Connor misses a floater in transition.
 
Rebraca romantic-danced at one end on a shot attempt, no whistle, and next trip down to the other end, Connor called for challenging at the other just because the PSU shooter yelled out.
 
It's tough to run an offense that requires high scoring to win games when you don't have anyone who can shoot well with any consistency.
 
Iowa down 8 at 3:16 mark

PSU is shooting 59% for the game

14 of PSU's 32 points are in the paint



3 point shooting

1-6 (17%) Iowa
4-8 (50%) PSU

2 point shooting

9-21 Iowa
9-14 PSU
 
At least Iowa is playing like they care a little bit anyway. IA didn't even show those last 2 games. We're still going to lose more than likely but at least a little fight in us tonight.
 
Patrick doesn't even try on the D end, except on the very rare occasions.

(had a block earlier)

Kris- Good Player, but probably needs to be your 2nd best player if you want to compete

Filip- Should be a backup PF/C

Connor- Good glue guy. Good for a few minutes each half.

I could do without the rest.
 
I guess Iowa's only hope is for PSU to miss all their shots in the second half.
 
Can someone tell me what PMac brings to the table?

PMac sucks on both sides of the ball. Always has defensively. Now he can't hit anything.

I'd rather see Dix in there at this point.
 
You know what kind of effort Iowa is going to give on the defensive end by how well they are shooting.

If they are making shots, the D seems to be there (at least) effort wise, but if they aren't making shots like the 1.5 games?? Very little D effort.
 
Patrick isn’t half the star he thinks he is. This team is poorly coached and the coach’s kids play too much. There are games Conner deserves to be out there. This ain’t one. Nepotism U. Sick of this bullshit.

Between the awful play of the men and the careless bullsh** and deciding to adopt the men's defensive philosophy for the women, Iowa basketball is unwatchable right now.
