***Official IOWA vs michigan state Game Thread***

I don't think my mom has ever texted me during an Iowa game. She just texted me: Nice lead! Hope they can hold on...

Do I tell her to shut up and this yaer's different because of Baer?
 
Love seeing Wagner, Uhl, and Baer together. I wondered if they would be able to coexist in the future.
 
Sparty, with the obvious approval of the officiating as a whole have mastered the art of fouling almost continuously knowing that the officials will let three fouls go for every one called. Its simply amazing what they do on defense.
 
All the guys saying not to get excited about Baer until he plays against good competition-- is the #1 team in the nation good enough for you or do we need to play the Golden State Warriors?
Yeah Baer's OK. He doesn't give much of a shit about anything. Just plays.

Yep... and the calls will slow in the second half. Hawks will need to play a tough second half

Basketball SAB?
 
Over under on MSU fouls in the second half? 5?

They will be in the double bonus by the 10 min mark. They will only have I say four fouls called on them with 5 min left in the game, they will then get called enough times to get Iowa in the bonus to "even" things up a bit. I predict they end up with 7 or 8 by games end.
 
Great defensive half. Make free throws and finish at the rim, and the game would be over. Did Izzo and the ref he was hugging on the way out at half go to a private room?
 
Let's talk defense people...

IA is locking MSU down - 23 points at half. MSU offense stagnant. They're not sure where to turn right now. Izzo is too good not to make some adjustments though.

Need the same intensity yet stay poised!!!!

The adjustment is going to be grabbing and holding because they have nothing to lose, they're a average offensive team without Valentine.

It's their only chance and Izzo knows it.
