Oddly enough, bad loss for ISU
- Thread starter ROCKY MOUNTAIN HAWK
- Start date
Both would beat Iowa but would be shocked if either make sweet 16. And Okla will b a 2 seed!
Isu will be an elite 8 team. Iowa will be watching most of tournament from dorm rooms.
If you think Oklahoma is soft, it is either sour grapes, or you know nothing about basketball.
ISU from number two to most likely an unranked 11 loss team, good start for Prohm. ISU has beat one team with a winning record since Jan 25.
Lol ISU hasn't beaten anyone away from Hilton, they won't make it past the first weekend...again.
ISU beat Illinois away from Hilton.
Lol ISU hasn't beaten anyone good away from Hilton. From top five preseason team to 6th in the B12, quite the season!
Winner Winner Chicken Dinner!
You are correct, and that was when Illinois was at "Full" strength!
A 4/5 seed,.......Who gives a f#CK about the "unranked".
How does a "ranked" 8/9 seed feel? Better than losing to PSU or Ill I bet.
Try 6 seed there bud, from top five preseason team to six seed. Hopefully you can avoid a rematch with UAB this year haha
Stay clear of the bong,....clouds up rational thought.
How has February and March been going? That home loss to Wiscy is, unbelievably, getting worse.
Keep madFran forever,....please.
IA and ISU.
One didn't live up to their potential.
One didn't take advantage of their opportunity.
Both equally and utterly disappointing.

Haha about as well as yours, one win over a team with a winning record since Jan 25th, really firing on all cylinders there haha
I get it. Iowa lost to a very pathetic Illinois team so now it's time to throw darts at the clones.
I guess you have to ask yourself, which loss looks worse to the selection committee ?
So, just for the record, you're saying the clones loss to #6 Oklahoma by a posession is worse than Iowa's loss to who?
Didn't say it was worse than Iowa's loss. Is anybody really scared of OU???
I am. They would destroy Iowa. So would isu. This seems like an odd thread considering Iowa's struggles lately.
Iowa has not lost by more than 8 have they? So why should they lose by 30 suddenly?
BTW, according to a DM register writer, losing to Okla is good because now they rest up for the NCAA.
Morris is hurt so it's good that they lost. The other guys don't need rest and those who think that they do are silly.
I wouldn't go that far. Did you see UNI during the month of January? That month included several losses to some bad teams.
The last I checked UNI still has more losses than both Iowa and Iowa St.

Iowa since January 28: one win over a team with a winning record at Michigan. Losses to Penn State, Ohio State, Illinois in that span to boot. Lost 6 of 8 currently.
Pot meet kettle
I'm still trying to digest the subject line: Losing by three points on a neutral court to the nation's #3 team is a bad loss.
Shhh Lone Clone, do not try to bring logic into a conversation started by irrational Hawk fans and ISU haters. 99.9% of people would agree that losing to OU is not a bad loss. They've been what, ranked #1 this year, and stayed inside the top 10 for most the year as well.
I'd rather lose by 3 to them than lose to Illinois....or PSU...
Ugh.
They're not #3 & that wasn't really a neutral court. ISU is playing bad ball right now. That was a must win game for them last night for their confidence if nothing else. Big12 is weak as usual & even with good seeds I'd be shocked if there's an elite 8 team in the bunch.
Actually, yes, I would be very surprised if any team has as many good losses as Iowa State. All the ISU losses have been to teams that will be in the NCAA tournament, and all of the losses were close games, three of them in overtime.
