**** OFFICIAL IOWA VS. GONZAGA GAME DAY THREAD ****

[baldwinzag]

Wiltjer was 48% from 3pt all season with 160 attempts.

Better take advantage with Pangos & Sabonis out.

 

[CP84 2.0]

Woodbury is more of a liability than an asset. His offense is already lacking and he can't defend bigger players.

 

[yerpHAWK]

From what I've seen Iowa is not outmatched, they are just being outplayed. Dumb turnovers bad bounces and gonzaga shooting. Plus we can't F'n rebound.

 

[hansenhawk]

I think gonzaga could beat kentucky tonight. Too bad they didnt play them instead.

Bingo

 

[IowaHawkeyeFBnBB4Life]

This is stupid....Iowa can't hit a jumpshot to save their life and Gonzaga cannot miss

 

[HawkZula]

Last week's game plan was perfect. Not sure what this is. Oh well good season. Until next time boys.

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

Wiltjer with his second foul. That could be big.

 

[skydog0784]

Now's the time to make a move!

I like Clemmons & Gesell in together. Jok & Ogelsby are sleep walking out there

 

[MTHawkeyes43]

If Iowa is going to stay in this game they will need to start shooting the ball better, ala Sapp!!!

 

[IowaHawkeyeFBnBB4Life]

Gonzaga is being really "hands on" on defense, when the game is allowed to be like that it has caused issues for Iowa

 

[spiderland]

Gabe and Sapp!!!

[yerpHAWK]

Wow I really hate this gonzaga team. Let's freaking go.

 

[MepoDawg#]

Pangos palms the ball a lot.

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

Lol balwdinzag, any comment about why Gonzaga's players always react so negatively to calls? Or why Sabonis shoved his own teammate out of frustration during the NDSU game?.....

 

[MTHawkeyes43]

Gesell is such a liability against good guards.

 

[yerpHAWK]

Needed that 3, and of course Zaga hits that Bs

 

[jett06]

White and Uhtoff have offensive mismatches nearly every time down the court and we have to start taking advantage of it.

 

[BubsFinn]

The Zags' big men spend quite a bit of time in the lane.

 

[skydog0784]

Now's the time to make a move!

I like Clemmons & Gesell in together. Jok & Ogelsby are sleep walking out there

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

Damn Gonzaga miss your f***ing threes. Be more like Davidson.

Ummm, Fran, how about Gabriel for woody?

Yeah, cause that is really working

 

[Mohawkeye]

These guys are shooting out of their minds. If we just hang close they will fatigue and start missing.

 

[spiderland]

Hate to say it, but I don't think we can beat these guys. Not when this Iowa team shows up.

Does Aaron White guard anyone or does he just play a free saftey? Getting exploited tonight.

Still alot of BB left. I don't think Gonzaga is going to continue this shooting in the 2nd half. We haven't heated up yet so 2md half could be alot different.

Apparently you missed the entire season (and previous 2).

 

[cg8284]

Really bad defensive game so far. Are they hitting shots? Yes. Are they wide open? Yes.

Agreed. They're not converting on shots and seem surprised when Gonzage hits a few.

 

[The Sleeping Dog]

Not out of the game by a long shot. Have to start hitting shots.

 

[ynglbc]

We need to keep driving to the basket and picking up fouls. Get them in foul trouble.

 

[like-woahh]

They're a good shooting people and are hot tonight. Ran into a buzzsaw in this one. Only chance is to keep it in single digits and hope to steal it in the end.

And Iowa should keep fouling the big goon. Use subs to foul him. I could shoot better FT's with my foot.

hack a pol-lack. Yeah, might work. We are getting killed. Once in awhile you run into a buzz saw and we are getting sawed I 1/2. If we can close the half with 10 pt deficit, that will be miracle. We don't look very good. We look like Davidson.

 

[brewhawk23]

Easy to shoot this well when you leave them WIDE OPEN! Cant compete with them if we dont play defense and get stops.....

[jett06]

White or Uhtoff have huge offensive mismatches nearly every time down the court and they need to recognize it and take advantage of it.

 

[GPRHAWK]

Gonzaga is just better than us.

 

[hansenhawk]

Jesus, small glimmer of hooe there, nope, back down 15 probably more just like that. Hard to stay positive right now, i just dont see any possible way we somehow pull off this miracle barring about 3 of their players going down with injuries.

Agreed. Pangos has no respect for Gesell's outside shot.
