*****Wisconsin vs Iowa Game Thread*****

[QChawks]

5:30pm BTN
Iowa -4.5
Over/under 138.5

Badgers are gonna wanna grind this one out and slow the hawks way down as their pace of play is one of the slowest in collage basketball. It’s gonna come down to who’s hitting 3’s and controlling the boards.

I like the hawks in a close one 72-67

 

[BustingNarratives]

Should be an interesting matchup. Badgers are a couple buckets away from being 9-0 so they will be a tough out. They are not real deep. I think we match up pretty well with their personnel and I can see Josh O getting some minutes off the bench and handling Crowl if need be. Need to get Bowen and Sandfort going and this would be a good game to do that.

Still some tickets available ... take a kid (or spouse) to the game.

Really like these December B1G games!
So far it appears parity across the conference makes protecting your home court a huge priority. Go Hawks.

 

[SDHawkDoc]

Badgers! We don't need no stinking Badgers!

Can't resist pulling that one out as I loathe wisky b-ball and their mugging basketbrawl style of play.

 

[QChawks]

No surprise

Feel for game not good, hope wrong.

At least Brad "The Nutcracker" Davidson is finally gone.

No doubt. I hear he's touring the country doing Christmas shows....

 

[Suterman]

I never feel good when we play Wisconsin. I have no idea what to expect. If we play like we did against ISU we will win easily.

If he has his foot in a boot, seems like they could be a LITTLE more specific.
🙄

 

[hawksense]

Start Ogundele, Mulvey and Kingsbury alongside Conner and Perk. Mug THEM right out of the gate!

 

[hawksense]

And slap that assistant quickly too!

 

[Packer54]

Rebraka needs to stay out of foul trouble while still being aggressive (like ISU game).

I always get these bad vibes on Wisconsin and I think it is the frustrating style of play. They could easily be undefeated right now but MAN would this be a big win if they guys can pull it off. Hope the crowd is a repeat of the ISU game as well!

 

[iabcuda]

The game plan will be to out execute Wisconsin. Iowa State brought brass knuckles to a knife fight. Wisconsin will bring scalpels.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Wear the same uniforms, do the same pregame, and bring the same attitude as Thursday... And they'll give Wisconsin the business. Carver better be rocking after the last game!

 

[SA_Hawk]

Keep playing Jelly 10-15 minutes per game and eventually he will be in shape right?

 

[the24fan]

because fvck Wisconsin!
That’s why!!
(did I do that correctly?)

 

[BlackNGoldBleeder]

Pissconsin plays garbage basketball like Iowa State. They are almost carbon copies of one another.

 

[kceasthawk]

Well it probably eliminates the plantar faciatis thing. I don't think he'd be in a boot for that unless it was severe. More likely a stress fracture..

 

[Franisdaman]

I demand that we win this game.

Thank you.

Davison is one of the reasons they installed the new flopping rule. So many people were complaining about his antics.

They play like ISU on defense but much better on offense than ISU

Davison is the dirtiest B1G player of all time.

Here are 14 examples of his "tactics" that go back the last 5 seasons. Note, that these are examples of WHEN HE GOT CAUGHT.

How Greg Gard or ANY Badger fan can defend this guy is absolutely ridiculous and unacceptable.

From 2021:



Dumb ass Davison was hooking and holding, but said it was Kofi who was doing the hooking and holding.

Davison literally told the officials to check the monitors and review it, which they did. But note who ended up with the hook and hold foul and who ended up shooting FTs.

From 2021:

This hook and hold resulted in the player falling and a travel being called. And watch the clown celebrate afterwards.

From 2022 (Feb 20, 2022 vs Michigan):


10 minutes into the game and Brad Davison's feet tripped DeVante' Jones and his elbow happened to find Hunter Dickinson's ribs on a screen.

And another nut punch to Hunter Dickinson, too.












From 2022 (March 20, 2022 vs Clown U, his last collegiate game):

He couldn't help himself as he throws a left to the mouth/face Clown player.

So far it appears parity across the conference makes protecting your home court a huge priority. Go Hawks.

Iowa is the only B1G team that has not played a conference game so far.

8 teams have at least one conference loss.

Illinois is reeling.

1 loss: Indiana, Michigan State, Maryland, Penn State, Rutgers

2 losses: Illinois, Nebraska, Minnesota

Badgers! We don't need no stinking Badgers!

Can't resist pulling that one out as I loathe wisky b-ball and their mugging basketbrawl style of play.

Their philosophy: The refs can't (and eventually, won't) call a foul on every grab and hold.

 

[Franisdaman]

Start Ogundele, Mulvey and Kingsbury alongside Conner and Perk. Mug THEM right out of the gate!

 

[Obviously Oblivious]

If Iowa brings their defensive intensity like they did against ISU, this is a completely winnable game despite KM not being available. Keep Hepburn and Wahl in check, and an Iowa victory is almost certainly assured.

 

[Hawk_4shur]

I never feel good when we play Wisconsin. I have no idea what to expect. If we play like we did against ISU we will win easily.

Well, in the ten games prior to the last one (Hawks 87-78), the Hawks averaged 66.6 points per game and still managed to win 4 of them. Wisky is unlikely to score many points, so they would prefer that the Hawks don't either.

If the Hawks don't get to 70, I don't like their chances.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO...

 

[kceasthawk]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO...

No inside knowledge obviously. My youngest did have plantar issues, and it generally does not require a boot. Usually rest and inserts or a better fitting shoe made for the specific shape of your foot will work wonders. He also had a stress fracture, and was in a boot for a month. The way Kris is being treated and the couple of weeks we've been hearing about seems more likely.

You could be in a boot for about any kind of tendon issue...

They better be a good crowd!

I felt that way before tipoff on Thursday.

Turned out pretty OK.

Or, the infamous high ankle sprain.

No boot for that.
