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

[Hawkfan_08]

Being down to Wisconsin... at all... is not on my Bingo card. Yet here we are.

 

[Hawksbyamillion]

McCabe has been struggling from 3

 

[cmhawks99]

Yes. Michigan ahead of Iowa despite fewer Q1 wins and Iowa winning on their home floor.

I’ve never understood these be all computer models

I'm just following on ESPN's gamecast. 21 points seems like a lot to give up in the first quarter to a crappy team.

Wisconsin just lost to UCLA by 30 points, at home.

Well most are within 5 feet.

 

[amahawk]

Ava time!

 

[DewHawk]

Need to pick it up in second quarter

 

[Hawksbyamillion]

Stuelke really stepping up on D

 

[flaiawis]

Turnovers. Turnovers......

 

[hawkeye_wx]

It seems Iowa is just going to play close games with everyone. Remember, they barely beat a bad Northwestern team at home.

 

[Hawksbyamillion]

Nice hustle by Kylie!

 

[wondergrape]

Linkage?

 

[Hawksbyamillion]

And 1 for Stuelke! No drink on that one!

 

[cmhawks99]

Wow nice shot, and the defensively intensity has picked up like crazy. And for those of you shocked… Don’t be this is still Iowa.🤪

 

[DewHawk]

The half court offense looks really bad at this point

 

[hawkeye_wx]

41 points scored in the first quarter.
3 points scored halfway through the second quarter... oof

 

[Hawksbyamillion]

Big charge by Kylie

 

[Hawkfan_08]

Almost the under 5 to and we are winning thus quarter 3-0.

 

[cmhawks99]

Stuelke really stepping up on D

And then she makes that really tough driving layup. These women are all funny. Miss the bunnies and make the tough ones.

 

[WDSMHAWK]

Great game on both ends of the court by Hannah so far

 

[DougFHawkeye]

Hannah looks recharged on both sides of the ball.

 

[Hawksbyamillion]

And then she makes that really tough driving layup. These women are all funny. Miss the bunnies and make the tough ones.

I’ll take it! I think she could use a little confidence right now

 

[cmhawks99]

Holy shit, they are suddenly making incredibly tough shots

 

[Hawksbyamillion]

Needed that 3! AG!

 

[cmhawks99]

I’m not sure that was a travel

 

[Hawkfan_08]

Goodness... ladies. Come on.

 

[Hawksbyamillion]

This is the first time I’ve watched Wisconsin all year, but I kinda wanna throw a full court press on them with Kylie and AG in to see if we can speed them up and get some more TOs

 

[cmhawks99]

I’m gonna tell you something they made some crazy ****ing tough shots down the stretch I mean crazy ass shots

 

[HawkGem11]

no defense by iowa for a whole fing half on senior day, jesus girls get your heads out of your butts and play or else one of the worst teams in the conference is going to beat your butts at senior day...

 

[Hawkfan_08]

We had 3 fouls to give. But yeah.

 

[cmhawks99]

We had 3 fouls to give. But yeah.

Do u really want to give fouls in the 1st half ?

 

[DTP2]

I wanted a breather.

 

[citizenHawk]

Without looking at stats, I'd guess rebounding is a problem.

 

[oldhawk56]

Wisc worst in the league defending the 3. E are shooting 27% they are at 50 %.
And they are out rebounding us.

 

[DewHawk]

Wisconsin is making some very difficult shots, but Iowa is not playing well IMO.

 

[hawkeye_wx]

Ugh.... buzzer three to tie the game at halftime. This is a very uninspired performance from Iowa in a game in which they are favored by 21.5 pts.

 

[Hawkfan_08]

Do u really want to give fouls in the 1st half ?

Absolutely. Anyone other than Syd. We have 3 total fouls in this game.

 

[cmhawks99]

We have 3 fouls, they have 3 w/2. It will get physical in the 2nd half. Honestly, they made 4 shots, 3-3 pointers at the end of clocks w/a hand in their face, they wouldn’t make again in 10 tries. Sometimes u just have to say ok, and Tee it up again. The defense in the first quarter was poor, the decent in the second quarter was actually pretty good. They just made some crazy bullshit shots.. hell they’re shooting 54% and 50% from three, that ain’t gonna happen in the second half

 

[cmhawks99]

Absolutely. Anyone other than Syd. We have 3 total fouls in this game.

Man I don’t know, I don’t want Kylie or Hannah to get a “given” foul & then pick up 2 quick early 2nd half….i guess I’m not sure I’ve seen that happen much in the opening half 🤷‍♂️

 

[kceasthawk]

Her 3 year average for points is 12.7, 17.4 and 19.2 with over 10 boards a year since her sophomore year. In this day and age it's hard to believe a team like Wisconsin has held on to her especially with being from NY(not home grown). I like that she has stayed...wonder if the big dogs really start coming for her.

Agree
