Then the Hawks would be 2-0 against 2 of the Power 5 tournament champions. Any way that could get us back into bubble consideration?

Either way, looking forward to seeing more games with this young team. Go Hawks!!!

Sedge.

Nope! We lost that hope to IU Thursday.

We have 3 bad losses

We are 5-7 vs top 50.

RPI is at 81. SOS is 54

So I'm leaning towards the 3rd team out. We are comparable to every team in the last 4 category, but the RPI is way too high.
 
ISU isn't a conference champion. It's a conference tournament champion. Big difference.

I know what ISU did is better than Iowa but it has to be disappointing to know this is it. It won't get any better this year. Which is another way of saying neither of our teams can win it all.

I don't feel disappointed.
 
100% of your fan base doesn't know what either one feels like.

Lol right cause Iowa has never won conference tournaments. We can't all be blue blood basketball programs like Iowa State with all those final four appearances.

Enjoy it while it lasts this season, next year is gonna be great watching the meltdown

I think you would enjoy a successful basketball team at least once a decade.

The "meltdown" would also be a new sensation. You might enjoy the ups and downs, instead of the constant nothing.
 
How does 78-64 feel?
A well-worn phrase in your world,......."Super Bowl".

What is the first state of Iowa institution to get to 6 straight NCAA tournaments? Hmmmmmm,....

How does NIT feel? Again. Enjoy the home games. Nobody will remember.

Who won last years NIT?

Bullsh*t. I'm 51 and I've experienced 2 conference tournament championships and 1 regular season conference championship as an Iowa basketball fan. And I'm nowhere near being in the minority, on this board or the Iowa fan base overall, in that regard.

Now, if you want an example of a fan base where 100% of its membership doesn't know what it feels like to win a conference championship, I'm pretty sure I can come up with one if you give me a little time...

Hampton make the dance this year? Better hope Howard Johnson doesn't field a team.

Nobody remembers who wins conference tournaments or gets to Sweet 16s either. However, national championships are memorable.

Iowa exceeded expectations so we are good with it. Thanks for your input!

Your welcome.

Why are you here gloating? I mean you just won a tournament title. Go celebrate and not come to your most hated rivals board and talk crap.

There are fans here who actually cheer for ISU and Iowa. But boy some of you guys are just so annoying it makes it more and more difficult.

No hate at all.

Just education.
 
Answer the question,...who won last years NIT?

I know who won last years NCAA tournament. Villanova.

No idea. And don't care. I know 2 things. IOWA beat ISUcks 78-64. And that really chaps your hide or you wouldn't be on an IOWA board after beating the Mighty Mountaineers. Now don't you have a degree from Sizzler to study for tonight? You'd better get back at it.

I realize math is probably difficult for you, so I'll go easy and just point out that I was 14 when the Hawks won the regular season Big Ten in '79. I wasn't watching too much college basketball when I was 4...
