****Purdue @ Iowa Game Thread****

[Sett1997]

Just allows more officiating bias is all

Spot on brother, that's why review was created in all sports.
How many times have you seen a review and it's plain as day and they call it the other way?
Gives them an opportunity to stop play and call it the way the big boys want.
I know, tinfoil hat.

senior day, at home where you haven't lost a conference home game all year against a team that kicked your ass last time you played them and this is the first half effort you play with.....ugh

 

[ChuckBarkley]

Should be running ladders tomorrow at practice...no basketball. It’s all about effort.

 

[RocknRollface]

Most disappointing performance by an Iowa team in a very long time.

Zero grasp of what they needed to do to win that game.

Purdue kicked their ass on the boards 3 weeks ago came back and did the exact same fuking thing again.

 

[SpyderHawk]

I sure hope Fran gets huge on the guys for the Illinois game. Would be nice to go into the tournament on a positive note.

A classic Iowa late season bed sh!tting. Had to have at least one of those or it wouldn't be Iowa bball.

 

[Sett1997]

On the bright side Tennessee beat Kentucky at home.

 

[papabeef]

Fran yells at his team and gets T'd for it.

give it a break dude , he was yelling at the refs also .

 

[Rudolph]

Just once Id like to tell him he has Napoleonism.

Do it. Just call him sparkles Napoleon. I don’t wear Iowa gear to games anymore just so I can say shit to refs with less chance of affecting Iowa.

This. Let's not limp into the post season!

Stay off that NCAA 7 through 10 line. CRIPES

 

[Mike232423]

Wisconsin makes me physically ill at this point.

And for yet another season they finish ahead of us in the big tent

Fran should run ladders.

He doesn't understand how to teach a team to box out.

 

[JRingo]

Don’t expect Iowa to show up with an ounce of emotion for an emotional game. This looked like the Chris Street game. And, with a limited number of high skill players, it becomes impossible when one can no longer score, dribble or pass. Looked like 9 guys on the floor.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

They finish ahead of us in complete TOOLSHEDS on their team too. Wiscy can shove it

 

[skydog0784]

The refs had little to do with this game.

Hard to play 3 or 4 on 5 and win in the B1G

 

[tippet1]

Perfect, indicative play for Weezy where he gets tied up.

but he ca hit greet throws uncontested

Until he gets stronger, it will continue to happen.

 

[LaQuintaHawkeye]

Getting out rebounded 47-33 (and on our court no less) won’t get the job done ...that is the story of the game right there.

 

[And1Hawk]

Rebounding #1 reason for loss and zero recognition to box out allowing Bordeaux to get 14 boards.

Poor shooting also.

Just a piss poor effort on your home floor. Losses like that are tough to take. Purdue just played so much harder than Iowa

You're one of the few not blaming the officiating. You must be an adult.

 

[JRingo]

Wait. Redo the box score. Purdue just grabbed two more offensive rebounds.

 

[iahawks10]

Wussy with the big layup at the end of the game!

great game you puss

You’re changing the last name of college player to Wussy and calling him the puss?

Am I reading this correctly?

 

[denmar81]

How the hell is this not addressed?? Not a foul for 38 minutes then they all of the sudden can’t stop calling it

The game is pretty much over. Calling itnow

I really don't understand it.

Does anyone in charge of the officials notice this?

they do but don’t care. Officiating has been bad forever. The really bad officials get rewarded with tournament games. TeddyV, Mike Eades, Bo Boroski, and quite a few others are considered great officials by the NCAA.

Lol solid chance he's been doin' a little Tuesday-night boozin'

 

[CyberJJ]

Interesting to watch opposing teams leave Garza alone at the three stripe. Why not play tighter or close out faster? Have we seen Luka take anybody off the bounce from the three line all year? Dude is money from outside.

 

[denmar81]

great game you puss

Taking it a bit to far don’t ya think?

 

[SDHawkDoc]

The only positive is Garza getting his numbers for points and boards.

B1G POY - YUP

1st TEAM ALL AMERICAN - YUP

NAISMITH winner - in the running

 

[iahawks10]

A little strange to call a 20 year old a puss while hiding behind a computer screen.

Coaches must have short memories. Maybe work on things your team had been struggling with in practice. Like blocking out. Hustle is heart so that’s on the players.

However. quite a few of those rebounds were long rebounds off of missed 3’s where ball went right to a Purdue player.

 

[skydog0784]

Yes, I probably am. Very frustrated. I just wish Joe W would toughen up. Isn't just his lack of offensive production these last handful of games; it's just that he never seems to mix it up, get on the floor, grab that 50/50 ball. I'm clearly not the only that has expressed this sentiment.

Apologies to Joe though, stepped over the line there probably,

You're not wrong - Weiskamp has a lot of growing and improving to do. Certainly needs to get physically stronger.

 

[Hallrj3]

Purdue:

37 misses
18 offensive rebounds

WTF

We know we miss

clearly we didn’t learn anything from the last game against PU

 

[Phenomenally Frantastic]

Why the F did the worst shooter on the team take 8 three point attempts?

Deep thoughts by Jack Handey

 

[BoilerChiAlpha]

Iowa's last 4 meetings against Purdue:

--Trailed by as many as 21 (home)
--Trailed by as many as 39 (road)
--Trailed by as many as 26 (road)
--Trailed by as many as 37 (home)

Probably cause the other shooters on the team have been cold as ice.
