***Official Iowa at Minnesota Game Thread***

5-0 run then play our pathetic zone and give up wide open 3. Just like Nebraska game on the road. Killing us on zone played well man or man yet Fran getting too cute and switch up defenses.
 
WOW, 40-29 Minnesota at halftime

Game has been WAY more even than that, yet you'd think Minnesota is dominating by the score.

Jok has been a liability tonight that really killed our momentum when Iowa went up 24-22.
 
Jesus christ, how much are the officials getting paid in this one? This is absurd! Call a ****ing foul on MN at least once!!!
 
On the road down double digits at half, I hope this doesn't turn in to a Northwestern fiasco.
 
They should ask Kreiner if that last shot counts. He had the best look just standing there watching it.
 
As another poster mentioned, MN has not been 11 points been better this half. Demoralizing to claw your way back and then let it slip away again. Going to be a tough row to how to pull this out in the second half.
 
Pemsl seemed more effective than the other bigs. I think we need to take more 3pt shots and hopefully get hot. If we go inside, we get swatted and we are not going to get the calls on road.

Fran is subbing too much - what else is new. We can come back in the 2nd half. We need pemsl post ability to draw in the defense and kick out to shooters.
 
I'm not a basketball coach but why do we help out and leave a man open every time someone drives to basket?? They always are late to recover and the opposition hoists up wide open jumpers.. I've seen this defensive strategy all season and it ends badly a lot.. I say stop helping on the drive when the other teams is getting wide open looks and knocking down 3's!
