----------------------------------------------

Who's going Sunday?

If Maryland wins, Maryland will win the B1G Championship. If Iowa wins, Iowa likely wins/shares the B1G Championship with Maryland (as long as Iowa wins their final 3 games).

I had a feeling Rutgers would not last in first place. They lost again tonight & dropped to 3rd place in the B1G standings.

So we are down to a 2 team race; Maryland and Iowa.

With an Iowa win on Sunday, Iowa will be tied for 1st place in the B1G with 3 conference games left after that.


Thurs Feb 14 Game Results:
Iowa 88, Illinois 66
Maryland 89, Nebraska 63
Ohio State 59, Rutgers 39


Current Standings:
1. Maryland (23-2, 12-2)
2. Iowa (20-5, 11-3)
3. Rutgers (17-7, 9-4)


Megan is pumped and ready. Are you?

We'll find out if Iowa is ready for the big time.

We'll find out if Iowa is ready for the big time.

We play Maryland only once this year and we get them at home. Hopefully its a packed CHA.

That would be NICE!

Rutgers has been blown out the last three games in a row, in other words, ever since their key sixth player was suspended (see below). They may fall out of the top four at this rate.

How about the women win (or tie) for the title, and the men win out and do the same? As they say in Angels in the Outfield, "It could happen."

Beat Maryland!

$15-- Tickets vs Maryland for the men's game on Tues
$12-- Tickets vs Maryland for the women's game on Sun

that's awesome! hope they put on a good show! i really think if Iowa wins the B1G Championship then lots will happen for Megan (1st team All American; perhaps National Player of the Year?)

 

[jaxhawk06]

I plan on being there but it sounds like the weather is going to suck. Ugh, would be nice to see the women get a huge crowd

 

[HemiHawk]

Thinking of taking the fam to game but looks like maybe bad weather. Not thrilled about at least a 4 hr round trip in snow.

 

[Suterman]

My wife and I will be there Sunday.

 

[Kinnick.At.Night]

I'm going with my wife. And I'm not even into basketball much. I just want to see Gus play in person. And cheer the lady Hawks on to a possible conference championship. Iowa may never have a greater player than Gustafson. Male or female. And what a person she seems to be. She really takes joy in the game and her teammates.

 

[Franisdaman]

hooooze watching?

hooooze going?

how's the weather in Iowa bleeping City?

[sultanofsuede]

I haven’t seen Maryland play this year - do we have a shot, are we pretty heavy underdog?

 

[Hawkfan_08]

Good start. They are making anyone but MG beat them. They are all over her and double/triple teaming her. Davis has done a nice job driving the lane to counter it. Up 1.

 

[hawkeye54545]

Struggling with the pink unis. Unique for the women so I don't mean they are "bad" just when I first started watching I kept thinking we were in black.

 

[StormHawk42]

My God we are a turnover machine right now

 

[MepoDawg#]

My God we are a turnover machine right now

Yet up 7 without MG doing much besides being a decoy. She’ll take over in the second half if the supporting cast keeps it up.

 

[andrewrayhons]

Love watching these ladies play basketball. So unselfish, and they love to run.

 

[KuwaitHawk]

Score?

 

[TheEnigma80]

33-33 at the Half. MG with 7 pts.

 

[andrewrayhons]

MG has 7 at the half

 

[StormHawk42]

Damn up to a 10 point lead mid 3. Let’s go ladies

 

[Hawkfan_08]

Up 5. Under 5 TO in the 3rd quarter.

 

[andrewrayhons]

Damn up to a 10 point lead mid 3. Let’s go ladies

Was actually 8 as the scorekeeper didn't add on the 2 for Maryland on the reverse layup.

 

[QChawks]

Good game.

47-40 hawks

 

[denmar81]

Stewart really struggles out there.

 

[denmar81]

is this female announcer a Maryland grad? Annoying as hell

 

[QChawks]

10 point lead!

58-48

 

[StormHawk42]

Want to take this opportunity to say how much I prefer to the flow of the quarters better than the halves.

 

[WERHWKI]

is this female announcer a Maryland grad? Annoying as hell

Both announcers bad! A blind person would have no idea what is happening.

 

[andrewrayhons]

End of 3rd, hawks up 8. MG with 12 in the third.

 

[Hawkfan_08]

Up 8 going into the 4th quarter. Gustafson now up to 19 points after, what, 7 at half?

 

[Hawkfan_08]

Stewart really struggles out there.

She can hit the elbow/ free throw line jumper in the high-low. She needs to be in there to make that shot because none of the other posts seem to be able to.

 

[StormHawk42]

Maryland is back to face guarding MG

 

[MepoDawg#]

She can hit the elbow/ free throw line jumper in the high-low. She needs to be in there to make that shot because none of the other posts seem to be able to.

Stewart has hit a couple today but looks uncomfortable shooting them. MG is getting mugged on both end of the floor.

 

[Hawkfan_08]

Oh no... that escalated quickly. Down 1.
