I think you need to change the title of this thread from "if" to "when". barring some totally epic melt down this game is done. I believe a few sports writers are already posting their Iowa vs Rutgers prediction stories.

in the B1G tourney. I think I saw Iowa is 0-4 as five seed? Big chance to get a monkey off the program's back today!

Two of those years was before B1G expansion. In the 98 and 99 tournaments they played the 4th seed their first game but as was mentioned in the telecast Fran has laid some eggs in the BTT. They looked awesome today. I mentioned in the game thread that first half had to have been the best half of basketball in the Fran era while he's been at Iowa.
 
Iowa was also a #5 seed in the COVID storage season 2 years ago if I remember correctly.

That may have been the best half by any team in the history of the B1G tournament. Outstanding.
 
Also if Iowa wins today, it will be the first time Fran has won consecutive postseason games at Iowa, outside of the run in the NIT his third year. This team needs to make it happen today!

We're not falling for that Mrs. Screw. We remember how that last game was officiated and, I for one, am taking a wait and see attitude as to whether we will be playing basketball or having a wrestling match this afternoon.

Psst. My comment was about yesterday's game. Not today's. Today I'm hoping Rutgers wins again. ❤️🏀☘️
