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

After the travel on Northwestern, Jok should have been put in the game for the last possession of the half. Instead we settle for a contested 3 from Ellingson. Not sure why you wouldn't want the leading scorer in the big ten in the game there.
 
If Fran can solve the D to get Jok open and get some stops, we'll be in every game we play this year.
 
Need to step up the defensive intensity or we will get run out of the gym. They are getting way too many open looks and offensive rebounds. Iowa has to play better defensively in order to win.

Offensively we just have to be patient and run something. Right now its a pass to Pemsl and he drives out of control. Jok/MOss have been non factors so far. If those two get it going, it could be a nice addition.

The first 4 mins in the 2nd half will tell the tale.
 
Jok and Moss haven't done anything. 2nd half Hawks get some transition buckets and Jok pours in 18, Hawks win.
 
Pete has been around long enough to know NW has never played in the tourney or won a B1G in basketball. This is not your fathers Northwestern! Fran2Pete "If you want to be the best; earn it".
 
Iowa needs to run some pick and roll with jok and kriener. They are guarding jok close and leaving cook and pemsl wise open but those two can't make the 12-15 foot jumpers.
 
We are making Macintosh look like Yogi out there.

Why are we guarding him out by half court? He's not gonna shoot it from there. Sag off him and make him shoot it. If he starts to hit, okay then get out on him. Never understood that.

Yeah I agree its not happening. Jok/MOss/pemsl all forgot we played tonight.
 
Tough to win on the road - especially after a big W against PU at home but I never anticipated a total humiliating defeat. NW is putting on a clinic against IA tonight.
 
OMG it's Bryant Mcintosh! Lets bow down! The NW love fest gets old.
