    Iowa is a scrappy defensive team with good shooting. Good offense. They have a "shooter's chance" in the tourney. It seems the Purdue coach was resting his big man "Edey" today and he played here and there. Even with Edey not playing much they got out-boarded badly in this game. I wonder what the rebounds were when Edey was playing?

    Definitely a weak spot for Iowa is lack of the bigs. Will be difficult to win a game with an "Edey" playing major minutes in the tourney against Iowa. They will have to shoot a high percentage, not turn the ball over, and be scrappy like today on defense.

    Despite ignorant comments by one SBR low-IQ moron about me not knowing anything about CBB....all I have to watch is a teams first game in the conference tourneys to get a good grip on what they're about.

    Iowa was a gift for me today no doubt ($$$), but game might've been different with major minutes from Edey.

    Congrats Iowa, you are a really good team — and sort of built well for the tourney. If you overachieve just a bit, you could be a final four team, sadly I foresee major underachievement

    Therefore, its all about who they end up playing throughout. That's why its almost impossible to make a comment "They have no chance", etc. If they don't run into a team with major bigs up to the FF, then they have an advantage until they do. Hope this helps you fukkers. Unless you're an "America ONLY" fukker, I hope you lose (not Ukraine first, not Israel first, not Vietnam first, etc. America shouldn't be first anyway Donny, they should be ONLY)

    5:47 I won on Iowa

    Team A Wins a game that ends at 9 pm. Guess who's posting at 10:30 saying he knew Team A had it all along

    Come on over Einstein anytime and post your "winners" on my thread. If you beat me then I'll leave. You don't know shit about anything.

    Also Iowa is 3rd in rebounding in the B10. Most teams don't have a 7'4 giant Mongoloid in the middle and another huge fat (but athletic) dude thats like 270 backing him up. Those 2 got 25 rebounds today. Iowa is fine in that department. Overall B10 was kind of flat this year. I'd be surprised if any of them made the FF

    You're a "HOSER" dude. Note, I'm doing what I said I would.......If I bet b/w playoffs (incl. March Madness) I will bet small. Way smaller. I've PROFITED more gambling per month than you get from your military pension since you've been out. I owe some of that too a professional gambler that taught me the basics and I took it from there. Now, the reason I won't start a thread, is what I told a former poster here with initials "P.P.". He knows why. Why? I don't wish to help people like you that are disrespectful and ignorant jerkoffs. There are some people here that are cool as can be that I would love to help, but that would never outweigh helping the people like you. That's why if I knew more of the cool fukkers personally than I would help them personally.

    I already know your type. I could go 111-1 record. But that one loss you would ride me about forever...especially if you liked the other side. GFY man.

    I cannot confirm or deny that happens as that’s way north of me

    However, damn near everywhere you go in Indiana you see a ton of basketball goals

    That’s just how we roll

    Keegan Murray Enough said. Iowa will do very well in this tounrnament as they are a very balanced team. Congrats to them on Winning the Big 10 tournament, they got screwed with a 5 seed, should of been at worst a 4 and at best a 5... won like 11 of last 12 games and won the big 10 tournament not sure how they dont get at least a 4 seed.. Although the stupid committee already had it all figured out before the championship game. GO HAWKS!

    Yes, Wisconsin got screwed a few times after the Champ game because the committee has things locked and loaded - That's the negative with playing the last Conference Final. And yes Iowa is dangerous and should be a higher seed!

    Find a better player than Keegan Murray? A 6-8 mobile beast.
    He has the great potential to get Iowa to the Final Four.
    Let's do it Hawks!

    Tried to get Richmond +6.5 1H, but MGM froze up and the game started. They won the A10 tourney....they're no joke. Down 13 or 15 to Dayton and beat them. Problem w/Iowa is they like to play fast, but they have too many white guys to press so decent teams can slow it easily on them. Just have to grind them out. Have to be able to beat them on the boards 2H

    I hate when that happens; let’s see how this second half goes. Iowa is on a run. I like Perkins. Bohannon has expired; he’s gotten worse.

    fred: i think Bobby Mckillop had more to do with the spiders making it to the dance, than the spiders. A10 was one bid conference, until davidson gave the game away on Sunday
    a lot of times, a mediocre team like richmond will give the superior team= Iowa a run. using all that "we are not supposed to be here BS" as motivation. but then the cream rises to the top. Fully expect that is what Iowa does in the second half

    Like I said though....they came back from way down to beat a very good def team in Dayton last Sat. They're pretty solid. Iowa playing dumb though? You get open 3s by going inside out and they're mostly shooting
    contested 3s
