One of the biggest games in program history coming up

[BlIIlken2]

It’s essentially for all intensive purposes a tourney play in game.

Lose and you are forever in the history books for being the first Hawkeye team to miss the big ten tournament.

Let’s get hundreds of our fans to show up and out number their tens of fans. Should be a helluva an atmosphere in Evanston Friday.

 

[LukaDuka]

"biggest games in program history" Boy that's a stretch... Do you write click bait headlines for a living?

 

[shiphappens]

Is it PPV or can I watch it on regular tv?

 

[Heathen Raider]

Playing to see who is the tallest midget is not a Program defining game when Your Coaching Staff is nearly as bad as the roster it assembled

Some of us get sarcasm. Apparently many of us don't. Personally, I enjoy some good sarcasm, so well played, OP.

 

[HawkLogic]

Seems like we would need to win vs MSU or at Nebraska if we lose to NW----both unlikely. Definitely a white knuckle situation. If we Make the B1G tourney, we have a chance to run the table and get the automatic bid and then have a chance to run the table in NCAA play and win it all. So there is a lot on the line.

Iowa has about the same chance beating Northwestern as that asteroid hitting earth in 2032. (2.2%)

I think intensive porpoise is the correct terminology.

 

[HawkeyeGenius]

Ya know, it's an embarrassing state of affairs for MBB. Northwestern has been playing well lately despite some injuries. I never thought Iowa MBB would ever be in discussion for not being top 15 in the conference.

If Iowa loses to Northwestern, the only way we bypass them in the standings is beating Michigan State. The Nebraska game is irrelevant because Northwestern would hold the tiebreaker of beating the highest seeded team (Maryland). And of course Northwestern could make that a moot point by beat a UCLA at home.

Humor is appreciated in these times.

Don't care much about basketball, but Fran does need to hit the road.

I feel better.

You misspelled "intensive purposes".

Get it right: intensive porpoises.

 

[Hawkstate1]

Never in my life have I wanted Iowa to lose a game, but if this is the game that will get rid of Fran I am all in on the Wildcats. Lifelong fan, Iowa grad. Bye bye Franny.

Intensive purposes? I hate to pylon.....

 

[danny14]

Is there any chance Collins can take the Iowa bus back to Iowa City??

Hey...if I wanted a spelling lesson, I would have went to school!

Uh huh. Trying to be all smart when you’re clearly wrong.

Looks like a type of player Fran would recruit and play over NBA players

 

[HammerTime23]

Iowa-Louisville March 1980 biggest game in modern Iowa basketball history bad basketball 45 years later is not biggest game

 

[83Hawk]

Why? He hasn’t done any better than Fran.

 

[hexumhawk]

The sooner Fran is gone the sooner I can start caring again about Iowa BB

 

[BrewHawk]

You and about 10,000 other Iowa fans who don't attend games anymore.

A glimpse into the post game conversation between coaches.
