Northwestern's final 6 possessions yielded 17 points.

 

They scored 18 points in the first half.

 

They must loosen the rims in the final minutes of the game there.

i think that statement almost made me cry

Yeah, I'm gonna be honest I was trying to jab Illinois. It's not every decade that Penn St. wins in Champaign.

That is unreal.

LOL 4 wins over Iowa in 3 years. Go Cats Go! If only they had beaten f***ing Penn St. at home, oh well. I guess if Illinois couldn't do it it's not that big of a deal lol.

 

 

How are your two teams looking for the postseason this year?

If this is a diss I know they both blow. NU has an outside chance of the NIT, but I'm not sure they can be .500 or better by season's end.

 

I'd be surprised if Mizzou won another game.

Gonna be an interesting race for sure.

Any predictions?

Yeah, 11-5 will win the conference title. More than likely more than one team will share the crown with that record.

The annual Hawkeye collapse at Welsh-Ryan is underway

I can't figure out why they consistantly beat us. This stretch could get really ugly with a game at IU on Saturday and you know IU is gonna be playing hard. IU's been slumping and just got clobbered so my guess is we'll see a much better Indiana and I think we all know how Iowa plays on the road (ie, mediocre).

 

They lose Saturday and they may find themselves very quickly out of the big 10 race (considering we still have our game @ Illinois and than of course at home against MSU.

 

Damn it, ticks me off that NU got us yet again.

Was it just insanely hot shooting for did Iowa lax on defense? Or was it tons of 2nd chance points? I take it you were able to watch it. I guess I should consider myself lucky that it isn't on tv.

 

The Bulls are looking good though.

Expect a lot of the casual fans to have GW go much further in their bracket after tonights display on SC.

We need to somehow pull out a W saturday at tOSU to make up for the PSU loss

It's gonna be a huge huge huge game. How will the team rebound after such a tough loss?

 

Gotta get a tough road win.

 

I'm already pumped, got 4 days to go.

And by Saturday i meant Sunday, whoops.

 

Hopefully Augie's healthy - this is from Tupper's blog:

 

James Augustine looked like an 80-year-old man when he started walking toward the podium on Wednesday. And that was after Bruce Weber talked about how he’d injured his hand during Saturday’s game against Penn State.

 

Turns out someone stepped on Augie’s foot at practice on Tuesday, creating a limp that he hopes will be a distant memory come Sunday at Ohio State. He injured his hand about three weeks ago, had it x-rayed, but then banged it during the game Sunday. It’s his right hand, which is the better of the two for an injury considering that he’s a left-handed shooter. But he said he can’t bend it.

we can still put him in at least to pick up some fouls hopefully

I can't figure out why they consistantly beat us.

It's simple. Alford is a basketball retard.

 

Vuko is 6'7" or whatever, so we have to guard him with somebody bigger... Brunner. 'Cuz 40 minutes of Greg Brunner playing perimeter defense sounds like a good idea right?

 

Oh and everything goes in the hoop for NW in the last 4 minutes of the game.

 

Oh and 1-4 from the free throw line with under a minute left from the Hawks.

I don't know what got into Iowa that caused them to not run offense and not defend the perimeter the last few minutes of tonight's game, but thank God for that miracle.

They probably ate at the same restraunt as the Illini did on Saturday.

Nah, the Illini didn't do ANYTHING the ENTIRE 2nd half, big difference.

 

I can't believe I used to defend Davis.  This season can't end soon enough.  I'm ready to close the book on him.  Watching us play of late, is like looking into the sun.

He sees the light

Jayhaws kill the Cornhuskers, they look so damn good now. I dont know a team playing better than Kansas right now.
