March 12, 200620 yr And this game is just about over, great game. I'm guessing Iowa will get a #3 seed with a win.
March 12, 200620 yr That's the game right there. Congratulations to the Hawkeyes. An unlikely Big 10 tournament champion.
March 12, 200620 yr Good Job Iowa...able to get Dials in foul trouble and since OSU didnt have Twigs travel with the team that really limits OSUs inside game.

March 12, 200620 yr OSU is toast in the tourney if they think they can rely on jacking up 35 3's a game. I can see why they had to take so many today with Dials being in foul trouble. But I don't think they go inside enough.
March 12, 200620 yr Iowa played well and caught Ohio State at a great time with them not playing well. Congrats to them on the BTT Title, should get a 3 seed because of it.
March 12, 200620 yr Ohio State is a dangerous team to pick to go far....their legs seem to be going out lately, causing the 3's to miss, and if you have enough depth inside to get Dials in foul trouble, tOSU will have problems.
March 12, 200620 yr QUOTE(Jordan4life_2006 @ Mar 12, 2006 -> 04:31 PM) This was a great BIG 10 tourney. Ehh not really. Pretty good game today, but yesterday's games were marred by missed open looks and tired legs. Overall, an average Big 10 Tourney, although they almost always are because these teams know each other so well and are tired.
March 12, 200620 yr Author What an unreal ending. I went upstairs w/ tOSU up 4, and I come back down and Iowa was up 5. Congrats to Iowa for winning the BTT.
March 12, 200620 yr That was win #10 against teams ranked in the top 25 at the time of the game. 10-3.

I meant more the competitiveness/intensity/effort aspect.

March 12, 200620 yr QUOTE(Jordan4life_2006 @ Mar 12, 2006 -> 04:31 PM) This was a great BIG 10 tourney. I thought so too. A lot of the games came down to the final few minutes. Also, as an Iowa graduate, anytime the Hawkeyes win its a good tournament.
March 13, 200620 yr QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Mar 12, 2006 -> 02:16 PM) When Alex Thompson is burying a huge 3, it just may be your day. GO HAWKS!!!!!!! Ya. Alfords been raving about how Thompson has been playing in practices, but on game day he tends to be a more passive player. That was awesome when he hit that three and the whole team was out there on the court celebrating. Great win for the Hawkeyes, but the important stuff starts later this week.
March 13, 200620 yr QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Mar 12, 2006 -> 02:39 PM) That was win #10 against teams ranked in the top 25 at the time of the game. 10-3. Despite having 8 losses, this team has beaten more good schools than pretty much anyone in the country. I got real high expectations and am starting to see elite 8 possibilities and even an outside shot at the final 4. Man am I setting myself up for a big crash, but they play such strong team defensive, make free throws, and have some good leaders. Plus they've had tremendous coaching all season.
