Is this the UNO Revenge Game?

Haven't they played since then? I certainly remember the loss in 2016, but that was the last meeting? Seems like one of those non-con driving distance teams that have come to Iowa City more often than that.

That was the last time.
 
They weren't good in 2013 either and we were down 43-36 at half and were down much worse earlier in the 1st, almost by 20. We ended up winning by less than 10.

I remember that game because a stomach bug hit me hard in the 1st half and I left at half time. Only game I have left early.
 
Go Mavs 🙂


Seriously, Iowa will roll. Frankie Fidler is a bucket getter, but he hasn’t played well to start the season, and will likely be matched up against Kris. Rebraca should feast too seeing as the 6’7 200lb Fidler is their leading rebounder at 5.5 per game so far. Their best players are all freshmen or sophomores (unless Akol Arop plays - former Husker player who is an athletic junior forward, but he’s been out to start the season with injury)

Yes, I think they have played them since the Hawks took the L. And Hawks won.
