You must now sleep through every second half.

First road dub of the year. Any conference road win is going to be a big win this year.
Great win! First top 25 road win in I don't know how long.
Nah, Oregon is not your typical Oregon team this year, and of course.....Iowa State is breaking out their big game black jerseys one more time. Lol
After 26 straight weeks on the treadmill maybe. He’s not exactly an active defender or well conditioned. As a 2 guard in the NBA he’d get demolished right now.
I was afraid I might have jinxed them by waking up when I did!
Great gutsy win against a good gutsy team in a tough place to play.
For the record, that was a pretty damn good 03.play call for Rutgers.
Considering all the things that happened in that game, and Iowa wins an absolute nailbiter? Where's my celebratory cigarette??
Far as I can tell, since JBo hit that last second three @ Wisconsin in 16-17.
They won back to back road games against Maryland a few days before that.
Kegan needs WAY more minutes!!!!!!!!!!!
Gophers were a bad loss and this a very good win. Rutgers is much better than Minnesota. If Rutgers gets the right kind of basket they could well be a Sweet 16 team. They are very physical.
I didn’t hate it, but by the time they pass it in and pass it back, there’s already a second burned off the clock. You get three dribbles and a shot. They were never getting anything better than a near half courter which is why I think you have to take the chance of throwing it down court and hoping Garza isn’t quick enough to make it to the ball
Keegan Murray free throws (ice water for anyone let alone a freshman) and Luca’s last second D were HUGE!
True, the long pass was sorta negated by Nunge, so plan b is feed it directly to inbounder as Nunge can’t defend him and now he’s running full speed for 2.5 seconds, Like chess, you can’t take everything away, and go with your next best attacking play...I’m just glad it wasnt Marcus Carr...
Watching Iowa basketball and following the in game thread makes me want to get a new tatoo...
And the up side is I can fit right in with the hot meth head cashier at Caseys...

unfortunately, Oregon has a weak run defense, and Hall is at least a 2nd rounder.
Lots of disco fries I’d guess. I really thought he would have transformed his body a bit by now. As is, hell of a scorer at this level.
If C McC really cannot go I think we'll see Ke Murray start. The downstream affect is either or perhaps both Kr Murray and Tony Perkins see some floor time.
If Joey T has a serious eye injury, and not being in the late game defensive situations must mean his eye was at least blurry we are looking at serious minutes for three more freshmen.
And they ( Rutgers ) were 4 - 12 from the FT line, while going 18 - 23 ourselves...
Aaron Ulis basically became ConMac,
1-2, 4A, 0 TO, 3R....
allowed Fran to sit the ever erratic JoeT for a guy that doesn’t Turn ball over and does eschew the FGA for the pass to Garza ( at least 2 assist to Garza, maybe 3]
he may have jumped JoeT in the playing time rotation...

Looks like a pickup player at a local gym.
Have another donut...
And your thoughts on Ulis? I though he had a very nice well played prime time performance in a tough place under very stressful circumstances, certainly out playing joeT
Agreed. We are really going to like Ulis. If Bohannon hadn’t returned, he’d be logging a ton of minutes and likely doing quite well. He always seemed to make the right pass and find guys in position to make shots. With no turnovers and 4 assists (should’ve been 5 if Fredrick made that wide open corner three!) he looked really poised.
There was a possession where Young and one of Rutgers’ forwards ran a pick and roll and I think it was Ulis and Garza on the defense and it worked out that Ulis ended up guarding both of them in the same sequence, Rutgers missed a shot, Ulis skied for the board, then got an assist on the other end. Dude is a baller
Agree and Yes he does have the ability to sky for rebounds, and with those skills will be a solid sets of defensive skills. JoeTs guaranteed minimum minutes may be in jeopardy
Stay awake and turn on the ISU game. Maybe you can jinx them.
