Oh great. Hawkeye loss and Booger McFarland color commentating an NFL playoff game.
Man, I woke up in such a good mood today.

You're getting ridiculous. Did u watch the game on BTN? I'm simply restating what the t.v. analysts said.
Very true - but any idea how many of those points were scored off easy turnovers? I'm guessing 10 or 12.
Well if they had the lead......
I saw two if not three phantom calls or shot blocks get called a foul. I saw C McCaffery get raped going to the hoop with nothing called. You saw that too. I saw every 50/50 ball get called off of Iowa. I saw two players slide on their ass which resulted in traveling because of a shitty court. I saw a continuation play called that would leave most NBA fans questioning the rule. I saw a flop warning issued, but ignored when it happened again shortly after. This is just off the top of my head.
Such bullshiit. If only the players and coaches would have consulted with all us posters throughout the game, would’ve won easily. The players didn’t even give effort, they turned the ball over intentionally, missed free throws on purpose, refs were against us, the court was not suitable, unacceptable. I’m going to my rally now....
Great game, two programs fighting for themselves, loved all of it. I miss games in old arenas where staffers are scrambling for fans to blow the floor dry. Man I miss this type of atmosphere.
Same shit, though, with refs. I’ve posted this in the past, maybe back when I slummed it in the Lounge. Always, well, damn near always, the team that is behind at the 8 minute mark on in is allowed much physicality. Today it was our wings doing the right thing, drove it vs pressure—mostly Joe W—and every time there was the hand in the stomach. But players know this is the deal. Hopefully Joe W’s progression is to figure out how to score through that late-game pressure and physicality.
Love this team.

17 games to go. We're not out of it by a long shot.
LOL I'm sure I will. Nobody puts BBHawk in a corner..You will regret that reply
Oh Bardo is an expert, excuse me. Bardo the same Illini homer who said he liked the no call on Connor’s drive? That Stephen Bardo?
No doubt. Love this team
Typical Big Ten reffing. Always inconsistently bad. Iowa did nothing to make me believe they aren’t a pretty good team.
Care for a friendly wager on the wrestling dual? Iowa wins you donate $50 to the HWC and if PSU wins I will donate $50 to the charity of your choice. I know the NLWC is over funded so if you would prefer a non profit dealing with juvenile victims of sexual assault I would totally understand.
Chambers’ Penn State teams are always miserable to watch. It’s a 40 minute hackfest when they are on defense.
Absolutely. It was a great game. Iowa, in general, is playing so much better than I thought they would.
He he. You got far more grief about your post than mine, and for good reason.
But bad officiating aside, too many careless passes by Iowa is why they lost. Cannot depend on or blame the refs for everything.
Well then tell our opponents to let us win more.
Especially Penn State and Wisconsin. Because f*** both of those programs, that's why.
just try not to suck and choke the rest of they year so you don’t hurt Iowa’s SOS. Please make an NCAA Tournament this century so it’s not a bad loss.
Tough loss but I thought the Hawks played pretty well in a hostile environment. Losing CJ hurt rotating only 7 wore us out a little. The one thing I thought we could have done better towards the end was getting it to Luka. It felt like he didn't get many opportunities under the 4 minute mark
Turnovers have a massive impact on games. Coaches scream and scream about it. If I were a coach, for every turnover, practice and game a like, it’s a line drill. Only way to assign accountability to it. Make them understand the importance of it. Or, take away game time. If you remember the years wisky was good and making all those runs, very few turnovers. More shots than your opponent. How good are your chances of winning if you get 50 shots and your opponent gets 70.
Garza's shot was off from the line all game today. Just about everything was to the right today. Being tired is a poor excuse for missing fts.
And some days you are just off. He missed free throws. Ok. We get it. Throw the baby out with the bath water apparently. W out garzilla we get run out of that gym today. The rest of the team could’ve made all the free throws they wanted and still got smoked w out that guys that missed his today.
Iowa Wrestling is going to **** you pretenders up and it will be glorious.
Not gonna lie I was legit concerned for Simpson. He was really really winded and I think the heavy, humid air was getting to him.
1. Good game, hope to get you next time.
2. We usually win in Basketball
3. Dominant wrestling school? Are we talking the last 2-3 years...then yes...dominant wrestling school is and will always be Iowa.
4. You've made several posts today and only have 6 here but have been on rivals for 12 years.
Obvious you don't follow your own advice and say good game yourself. You show up when you win and are no where to be found when you lose.
Yeah I noticed him at one point laboring in front of the Iowa bench to get to the other side of the court. I thought, how many more years does he have left?
