***Official Iowa at Northwestern Game Thread***

[IAFB2021Champs]

So that's a foul but pemsl getting pushed isn't?

 

[DavenportHawk8]

We are just allowing Macintosh to run the show. He is getting to the paint at will and allowing his shooters to spot up and his big men to get the rebounds.

Offensively we have no flow.

This is Purdue X2. I was afraid of this, especially after a big WIN on Thursday. The young team didn't make the trip, they stayed in Iowa City.

 

[CanadaHawk]

Kriener has been effective. Give him some more minutes

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

come on pemsl. Kriener too effective to play?

Right? Pemsl just a turnover machine tonight

 

[HawkLogic]

Ellingson nice pass earlier...but darn we needed that open 3ball look

 

[youcantguardme]

If we get this within 10 by half we will get this within 10

 

[DarkThunder#61]

Keep it inside of 10 and just chip away in the 2nd half.

If they can withstand Purdue's hot shooting then they can do the same against Northwestern.

 

[IAFB2021Champs]

Pull jok out of the game already.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Nice steal by Brady, good trap by Kriener!

 

[DougFHawkeye]

If we get this within 10 by half we will get this within 10

Wut

 

[HawkLogic]

put jok on bench too?

 

[CanadaHawk]

If we get this within 10 by half we will get this within 10

Thank you Yogi Berra

 

[mazda1]

Freshman. Oh well, Still seeing things to like. Kreiner and J Bo on the o. Brady being Brady.

Now defense, turnovers, and rebounding is a work in progress.

 

[DavenportHawk8]

Hope NW goes cold in 2nd half.

Iowa has to get something going offensively. We have no flow or rhythm to our offense right now.

 

[DarkThunder#61]

Oh hey Jok not only not playing defense but also picking up a foul.

Solid NBA type stuff right there......

 

[hansenhawk]

Guess I shouldn't have bet the +7

 

[denmar81]

Jok is lazy on D. That is why he's not on the Wooden list, and rightfully so.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Pull jok out of the game already.

Just lazy on that...

 

[Buffalo43]

Jok playing his usual defense

 

[IAFB2021Champs]

Oh hey Jok not only not playing defense but also picking up a foul.

Solid NBA type stuff right there......

That's the NBA d though

 

[HawkLogic]

we had it down to 9 and then two uncontested layups.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Yep

 

[youcantguardme]

Bo playing out of control. He is so much better under control.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

we had it down to 9 and then two uncontested layups.

just what i was think. grrrr

 

[HawkLogic]

wtf moss.

 

[IAFB2021Champs]

Can the announcers not count?

 

[IowaHawkeyeFBnBB4Life]

Crispin arguing it wasn't a travel is ignorant

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

At least Cook is hitting his FTs!!!!

 

[IowaHawkeyeFBnBB4Life]

44-32 @ half

Could be worse, could be better

Regardless, Iowa isn't getting a W tonight

 

[EpenesaEpenesa]

Feels like it's 30. Only down 12

 

[HawkLogic]

what a steaming pile of it.

Pemsl, Jok, Moss did not show up.

Uhl hurt? Kriener outplaying what Uhl is capable of anyway.

 

[youcantguardme]

Thank you Yogi Berra

 

[TRHawkeye145]

Wow only down 12 for how shitty that half was. NW playing out of their mind

 

[DougFHawkeye]

Feels like it's 30. Only down 12

To be only down 12 with the effort put forth tonight is very very lucky

 

[IAFB2021Champs]

44-32 @ half

Could be worse, could be better

I think you're wrong. They played terrible in the first half. If they play even close to what the are capable of doing, I think they pull this out. Especially if jok starts playing like he has every other game this year.
Iowa will will this game tonight.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

And what do you know... a contested fade away 3 is the shot we get before half. Just like we always do. When is the last time we've gotten a shot inside the 3 pt line with a final shot?

 

[HawkLogic]

44-32 @ half

Could be worse, could be better

Regardless, Iowa isn't getting a W tonight

The upside is that maybe jok shows up in 2nd half. However, Law and Lindsey seem to be shutting him down with ease.

 

[HawkLogic]

one game over 50% for Macintosh...Iowa defense just what he needed to bust out of slump.

 

[33hawkfan]

That's the NBA d though

LOL

 

[skydog0784]

IA lucky to be down only 12. NW totally outplayed IA that half. Jok is so frustrating. I feel pretty good when Ellingson is out there - at least he gives a damn. Now watch Jok go off for 20+ in the second half!

Moss is pressing too hard, he had JBo wide open for a 3 ball and he's fumbling around out there trying to impress his family and friends attending the game.
